Alfredo Morelos is no use to Rangers right now and I think I know why - Kenny Miller

Rangers need a fully fit and firing Alfredo Morelos.

But right now? The club’s best striker is no use to manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst – and that was proved again at Easter Road yesterday. His red card after coming on as a sub reminded me of the Alfredo we saw in his first couple of seasons at Ibrox. The Colombian is full of frustration right now. Let’s be clear, Willie Collum had a shocker yesterday in the 2-2 draw and played a huge part in Rangers not beating Hibs.

I’ll get on to him later. But make no mistake, it’s a definite red card for my old team-mate. And I think it’s a culmination of a few different things with Alfredo. To me, he doesn’t look happy again. He’s annoyed at not playing. He had a wee go at Marijan Cabraja initially with his arm but it was more to get himself set and protect the ball. But then he had a proper swing and was in full control.

It’s a straight red and there’s no point complaining about it, it’s not up for debate. When Gio looks at both the red cards, I’ve no doubt they’ll appeal John Lundstram’s earlier in the game and it will be – and should be – rescinded. But they’ve no chance with Alfredo’s. He looked, he meant it and swung his arm in the boy’s face.

He’s been out injured for a long time and has been back training for a few months now. Now, he’s found himself out of the team because of Antonio Colak’s goalscoring form. But there can be no excuses for him yesterday. That was back to the bad Alfredo, where incidents like that happened too often. It’s been two-and-a-half years since his last red card. But for a lot of that time, he’s had things his own way. He’s very rarely had competition for his place in the team.

He’s always been the guy who had the jersey. But right now, the
