Michael Stewart has told Rangers fringe man Nico Raskin he has now become a 'peripheral figure' at Ibrox. The midfielder arrived in Glasgow during Michael Beale's reign and looked like he would be a 'wonderful' signing for the Light Blues.
But that early promise has recently not been evident or shown when opportunities come around, like his rare start against St Johnstone.
Connor Barron - a summer arrival from Aberdeen - looks to be Philippe Clement's main man in the middle of the park. But he was handed a rare rest from the off on Sunday night with Raskin given a big chance to shine.
However, pundit Stewart, who was on commentary duty for the 2-0 win over St Johnstone, doesn't believe the midfielder, who has been 'starved of any real game time' offered enough to convince his boss that he can nail down a regular starting berth.
