Gerrard livid with St Johnstone performance
Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has come under fire for his comments after the win over St Johnstone.
A late Alfredo Morelos goal – his second of the game – earned Rangers a 2-1 win at St Johnstone.
But speaking to BT Sport via The Scottish Sun, Gerrard insisted: “We shouldn’t have to work that hard to win at places like this.”
Gerrard apologised in this morning’s press conference, as reported by The Scottish Sun, when he said: “Some of my quotes were misunderstood or taken the wrong way, so I apologise for that.”
