Rangers Fans Slam Struggling Star After Kilmarnock Win
Rangers’ 3-1 victory over Kilmarnock has been overshadowed by the poor performance of one of their key players, with fans calling for his immediate removal from the team. Despite the win, the player’s struggles on the pitch have boiled over into social media, with many supporters expressing their frustration and disappointment.
## Jack Butland Under Fire
The player in question is none other than goalkeeper Jack Butland, who has been at the center of controversy after his error led to Kilmarnock’s goal. Butland’s mistake has been widely criticized, with many fans questioning his ability to perform under pressure. “I can’t keep watching him, I’ve had enough,” one fan said, while another commented, “Don’t want to see him starting again.”
## Fans Demand Answers
The criticism of Butland comes as Rangers look to bounce back from a disappointing run of form, which saw them win just one of their last five matches across all competitions. Despite the win over Kilmarnock, fans are still demanding answers and are not afraid to express their discontent. “Not good enough, never will be,” one fan bluntly stated.
## Scott Allan Weighs In
Former Rangers player Scott Allan has also weighed in on the debate, blaming Danilo for the goal conceded rather than Butland. According to Allan, Danilo’s lack of awareness and failure to track his man were the primary causes of the goal. “Set pieces have been an Achilles heel for Rangers,” Allan said. “They haven’t been defending them well enough. Yes, Butland’s got to do better, but if you’re not going to come and take it, you expect your teammates to get you out of trouble.”
## Danny Rohl’s Response
Despite the criticism, Rangers manager Danny Rohl seems to be standing by his players. After the match, Rohl praised his team’s performance, saying, “To enjoy the first game at Ibrox with a win today and see what it means in this stadium was incredible.” Rohl also thanked the fans for their support, acknowledging the importance of the win in boosting team morale.
## Conclusion
The win over Kilmarnock may have given Rangers a much-needed boost, but the criticism of Butland and other players shows that there is still much work to be done. With the team’s upcoming fixtures looking challenging, Rohl will need to find a way to shore up his defense and get the best out of his players. As one fan succinctly put it, “We’ve got to start playing like we’re worth the ticket prices.” With the current form of some players in question, can Rohl turn things around for Rangers¹ ² ³?
