Van Bronckhorst has gone from Rangers 'legend to lame duck' and is 'finished' claims Kris Commons

Kris Commons believes Giovanni Van Bronckhorst's time is up at Rangers as the Celtic hero branded him a 'busted flush' at Ibrox.

The Dutchman is under even more pressure following defeat to St Johnstone in Perth with his side now trailing champions Celtic by seven points at the top of the Premiership table after just 13 games. The former Hoops and Hibs star believes things really started to unravel after his negative comments on the back of their hammering by Ajax in Amsterdam.

Performances have been a struggle for some time with a number of heavy Champions League defeats and unconvincing displays domestically including a slim ViaPlay Cup - previously known as the Premier Sports Cup - win over Dundee and dropped home points against Livingston before this latest setback. Commons also thinks the one thing that could be saving Van Bronckhorst at this moment is the fact the club can't afford to sack him and pay off his contract, claiming he's gone from being a 'legend to a lame duck' in a six month period. He also had choice words for Ryan Kent claiming he's been an 'empty jersey' for months.
