Rangers fans have taken to Twitter to slam Bruno Alves’ performance during the Gers’ defeat to Kilmarnock on Saturday, and many fans now believe that the Portuguese should never play for the club again after his display.

Kris Boyd struck nine minutes into the second-half to leave Rangers going into the international break just two points clear of Aberdeen in third having played a game more than Derek McInnes’ men.

There were a number of hugely disappointing performances across the pitch, and one of the worst seemed to come from Alves in the fans’ eyes.

And after the defeat to Killie on Saturday, there have been several Rangers fans who have requested that Alves never plays for the club again following his latest disappointing appearance.
