KRIS BOYD has questioned why goalkeeper Allan McGregor is still at Rangers after he signed a new deal at Ibrox.
The veteran stopper appears to be being utilised as a No2 goalkeeper this term with Jon McLaughlin having started the opening two league games.
And Boyd is unsure why McGregor is still at the club as a player, if being played as a second choice.
He wrote in The Sun: "The Allan McGregor and Steven Davis situation also continues to baffle me.
"Two players tried and tested in win-or-bust matches at the highest level. If the club don’t see McGregor as the No 1 keeper, why is he still at Ibrox?
"His body is programmed to perform week in, week out. Putting him in for one game here and there won’t cut it.
"The goalkeeping debate will keep cropping up. I’m just not comfortable with the situation, and that is nothing against Jon McLaughlin.
"If Rangers wanted McGregor to hang around and help the youngsters then he should have gone straight into coaching.
"I still believe he has a part to play and it is as the first-choice keeper. Davis is another strange one, for me.
"I’m fed up saying it, but there is nobody better in that deeper midfield role. For whatever reason Gio just doesn’t seem to fancy him as a starter.
"Tuesday night will be calling out for people with big balls and that is where Davis comes into his own.
"They need someone to take the ball in tight spaces and he is perfectly suited for that role."
