Rangers’ returning but now-controversial playmaker Ianis Hagi, who was unceremoniously given his marching orders barely 35 minutes into his much-hyped Rangers return on Sunday, has now been confirmed as out for the rest of October,

It might be arguable whether it is an acceptable slot in which to schedule top-level professional football, but Vaclav Cerny was glad to take the opportunity to earn some redemption on a late Sabbath’s evening.

Ibrox Noise isn’t overly in favour of the 25-year-old, he lacks pace, and his numbers fall short of Ryan Kent who fans chased from Govan with a borderline cleaver. For Rangers Hagi has 37 goals and assists in 99 appearances, while Kent had 84 in 218. Kent falls a little short of one in two, while Hagi just gets over one in 3.

Ianis Hagi has broken his silence over his Rangers return as one former Ibrox star named THREE positives about his display - before a 'disappointing' end to his big moment. Philippe Clement reintroduced the Romania international after a length absence from the first team picture as a second half substitute and he instantly showed his worth to the team by picking out Vaclav Cerny with a pass into feet before the winger beat his men and drilled a low effort home to grab his and the Light Blues' second of the contest in a 2-0 triumph over St Johnstone.

Vaclav Cerny broke the deadlock in the 34th minute and he added a second in the 58th minute before the drama with Hagi began.

The Rangers attacker was sent off on his long-awaited comeback in the 2-0 win over St Johnstone Rangers boss Philippe Clement has labelled Ianis Hagi’s red card in the 2-0 Premiership win over St Johnstone as “clumsy” and “unlucky” before conceding his dismissal for a dangerous tackle was the correct decision.
