Kris Boyd has touched upon John Souttar's current form, insisting that the Scotland international's confidence is 'shot to pieces' at present.

The former Rangers striker and current pundit has been impressed by the defensive duo of Nasser Djiga and Manny Fernandez, though the pair were separated last weekend, as Souttar returned to the backline against Dundee United.

Despite winning 4-2, moving closer to league leaders Hearts in the process, Boyd wants the tried and tested partnership to return against Falkirk this weekend. “I think, from Rangers overall, they’re scoring goals," he said on The Warm-Up.

"They are scoring goals, but they do look a little bit vulnerable defensively, I may add. I think it has to be Djiga and Fernandez as the two centre-back pairing from now till the end of the season. I mean, John Souttar, I don’t know what’s happened to him.

“He looks shot to pieces, confidence-wise.”
