Giovanni van Bronckhorst has taken too many blows on the chin and knockout punch seems imminent for Rangers manager

GIOVANNI VAN BRONCKHORST spoke about taking the defeat to Liverpool 'on the chin' as he came to terms with a barrage of blows that left Rangers punch drunk on Wednesday night.

In reality, only the knockout one remains to be landed. It is no longer a matter of if, only one of when and time will tell who delivers the shattering shot that will see Van Bronckhorst counted out at Ibrox.

There has been a cloud hanging over Rangers and their manager since those successive humiliating defeats to Celtic and Ajax. That put Van Bronckhorst on the canvas once again and coming out swinging with wins over Dundee United, Hearts and St Mirren is not enough to convince the crowd that Rangers are serious title challengers.
