Rangers crashed out of the Scottish Cup on Saturday after suffering a 1-0 defeat to Hearts, leading manager Steven Gerrard to admit that he will consider his role at the Ibrox club.
Three days earlier, the Liverpool legend watched his side dispatch in-form Portuguese outfit Braga from the Europa League by winning 1-0 away from home, but a poor run of domestic form sees them trail Celtic in the Premiership by 12 points and staring down the barrel of another trophyless season.
Saturday’s display at Tynecastle was a particularly limp affair, with the Gers being comprehensively outplayed by an opponent that finds itself in a relegation battle.
