Rangers remain unbeaten in their last 12 matches, winning 10, and sit just a point behind the Scottish Premiership leaders after a 2-0 victory over St Mirren. While they boast the league’s best defensive record and third-best attack, former Celtic striker Chris Sutton and ex-Rangers forward Kris Boyd agree the team lacks a killer instinct. Sutton warns that Rangers don’t control games as they should, and Boyd notes that past Rangers sides would have scored three or four goals in similar chances.
New signings Kim Min-su and Badredine Bouanani have shown quality but haven’t delivered consistent end product. Manager Derek McInnes acknowledged the team created “loads of chances” but failed to convert them cleanly, relying on a penalty and a deflected shot. He emphasized the need for better decision-making and pass weight in crucial moments.
Despite the criticism, McInnes remains focused on continuous improvement, citing draws against Hearts and Dundee as areas to address. If Rangers refine their ruthlessness, Sutton believes they could become nearly unstoppable.
