Rangers' Alfredo Morelos 'cant touch' Jota as Celtic hero bites back at Kris Boyd

Frank McAvennie reckons Alfredo Morelos 'can't touch' Jota as he responded to Kris Boyd's claim that the Rangers hitman was the best player in Scotland.

The former Light Blues and Kilmarnock striker was on pundit duty during Sky Sports' coverage of the Edinburgh derby between Hibs and Hearts as he rejected Scott Allan's claim over Jota being the No1 player in the league, arguing that the Colombia international should be the man at the top of the podium.

Now Celtic hero Macca has had his say and he reckons Boyd's remarks are well wide of the mark insisting that the former Benfica man has the potential to play for any club in any league. He believes even in his bad games this campaign he will still be 7/10 which will make him an extraordinary player. McAvennie did point out that Morelos is Rangers' best player and hailed him for his importance to the Light Blues, especially with his goals, but says he can't touch the Celtic star when it comes to natural ability and flair.
