Sky Sports pundit Kris Boyd questioned Rangers' Scottish Premiership title credentials after their 2-2 draw with Hearts. Boyd criticized the team's disjointed performance, stating they lack the ability to dominate games. He highlighted the side's struggles to keep possession and frustrate opponents, contrasting them with Celtic, who dropped points against Dundee United.
Despite taking an early lead through Kevin Kelsy, Rangers collapsed after Hearts' Claudio Braga and Calvin Miller scored in the second half. Olwethu Makhanya's 89th-minute header salvaged a draw. The result ended Rangers' nine-game winning run and kept them four points behind Celtic.
Derek McInnes was booed by home supporters on his return to Tynecastle. Boyd argued that winning requires periods of dominance, which Rangers currently cannot produce, especially against pressing teams like Hearts. He noted individual players can run but the team play is rushed and disjointed, with defenders causing problems for teammates.
