John Hartson reckons Giovanni van Bronckhorst would have really benefitted from adding a club hero like Barry Ferguson to his Rangers coaching team - even if he sees him as a threat.
Pressure is mounting on the Dutchman with the Light Blues sitting seven points adrift of Celtic at the top of the Premiership table following their defeat at St Johnstone coupled up with the Hoops' weekend triumph over Dundee United. Results and performances of late have left the Ibrox support angered with James Tavernier confronted by the travelling numbers in Perth following the 2-1 loss.
The Champions League campaign also produced six defeats from six games and the unwanted tag as the 'worst ever' side after ending with a -20 goal difference. They took batterings from Liverpool, Ajax and Napoli on their big return to Europe's top table. Van Bronckhorst himself is highly-regarded from his playing days at the club, but Celtic legend Hartson believes having a Ferguson in his corner would be a huge pro - but understands why he would be reluctant to do so.
