Rangers on course to land Champions League 'worst ever team' horror record as doomsday scenario draws closer

Four games in and it's been more nothing short of a nightmare return to the Champions League for Rangers.

Giovanni van Bronkhorst's side have suffered four straight losses, with Scott Arfield's strike the only goal of their campaign so far and Wednesday night's 7-1 thrashing at home to Liverpool was yet another reminder of the mammoth leap in standard required to compete in the continent's premier competition.

Such a painful run of defeats prompts the question of whether van Bronckhorst's side could end up ranked among the worst group stage showings once their six fixtures are done and dusted. Their record so far reads P4, W0, D0, L4, 1F, 16A to give a goal difference (GD) of -15. While there's still two fixtures left at home to Ajax and away to Napoli, it's not out of the question they could rack up an all-time howler of a campaign - and find themselves mire in European football's hall of shame.
