Glasgow Rangers have not enjoyed the best time since their return to the Scottish Premiership.
Former Rangers defender Scott Nisbet has worryingly suggested that the Gers need at least six quality players brought in to turn things around at Ibrox, the Evening Times reports.
Despite currently sitting third in the Scottish Premiership, it seems highly likely that this season will not be remembered too fondly by Light Blues supporters.
Rangers are 30 points behind league leaders Celtic and are now six points adrift of second place Aberdeen. They are also without a permanent manager currently following the departure of Mark Warburton.
Nisbet has expressed some sympathy for current interim boss Graeme Murty as he outlined just how much improvement needs to be made to the squad.
“It is poor just now. They need a good half a dozen quality players in. The fans are turning out in huge numbers week in week out at Ibrox and the team isn’t producing the goods,” he said, as reported by the Evening Times.
“It is not Graeme Murty’s fault at all. He has been put in a difficult position. Hopefully the club can bring in a top quality manager who can bring in top quality players.”

The frustration surrounding how the season has gone has arguably only been so strong because of the number of signings that Warburton oversaw in the summer.
The Gers have made 15 signings since their promotion from the second tier, and yet, it is difficult to suggest that any have impressed that greatly since arriving.
And not only has Warburton left the squad is desperate need of significant changes, but the number of signings he made has surely made it more difficult for his successor as he may have less funds to play with and will know that without letting a lot of players go, the squad will become bloated with just a couple of further additions.
