Barry Ferguson has accused some of Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s squad of going AWOL.

Filip Helander and Kemar Roofe have yet to make an appearance this season with John Souttar out of sight since being substituted in the SPFL opener away to Livingston.

Tom Lawrence has missed the last couple of matches through injury but the reasons for Rabbi Matondo falling out of favour are unclear.

With a brutal run of fixtures coming up van Bronckhorst needs to be able to use as much of his squad as possible but in the Daily Record Ferguson doubts the commitment of some on those cluttering up the pay-roll:

Right now Rangers are in the trenches. They can’t afford to carry passengers in the heat of the battle. It’ll be interesting to hear what Gio says today at his pre-match press conference in terms of the fitness of a number of players who appear to have gone AWOL over the past couple of months.

Despite those injuries Ben Davies and Ridvan Yilmaz have only played in one SPFL match, the 4-0 win at home to St Johnstone in August.

    Jesus, why is it that every time this clown opens his mouth, it’s just to spout the same tired, clichéd, pseudo military BS about being “in the trenches” and “standing shoulder to shoulder” with “comrades at your side” and “in the heat of battle”?

    I suppose to an anti-football clogger, with zero skill, like him, it is all about playing at being a hard man and being staunchly aggressive. I guess that’s easy when you’re in the safe environs of a televised footy match, with refs, officials and loads of police around and you’re far less likely to get a smack in the face, or any other sort of retaliation, than you would be if you behaved like that in the pub. I guess a wee coward like him thrives on that. For those of us in the sane world though, it’s about skill, entertainment and things like that.
