Alfredo Morelos picked up his fifth yellow card of the current season for elbowing Scott Brown in the Old Firm Derby on Sunday.
The Colombian is a hot-headed player and almost every opponent team tries to take advantage of this during games.
Such was the case this Sunday when Alfredo Morelos received his marching orders right after the half-hour mark which meant the Gers had to play most of the game with 10 men.
And now speaking about the striker former Celtic man Jackie McNamara has claimed that Morelos is a liability for Rangers.
“I think he has been a bit of a liability for them,” McNamara told Sky Sports.
“I know he has scored 29 goals and in certain matches, he has won them the game – but these games are massive to keep your head.
“Some lads don’t get sent off five times in their career especially strikers when they face that week in week out.
“You have to handle it, no matter what level you are at and yesterday he cost his team.
“They galvanised a little bit when he went off but for a fan, or as manager, or a player, to have someone like that in your team let you down, again and again, is very disappointing.”
The striker might have scored 29 goals this season for Rangers but honestly, his habit of picking up unnecessary red cards have cost the Gers a lot of points in the Premiership.
While other times, Steven Gerrard has come out to defend Alfredo Morelos but on Sunday the boss cleared said that a fine could be imposed on the Colombian and that money would be used for the benefit of the supporters.
