Nedim Bajrami has put in a stinker for Rangers and Philippe Clement is left with no choice but to axe him at half time against St Mirren.

The Albania international was handed a start in the Gers XI and he has operated in the number 10 role at Paisley.

However, he has put in a stinker and Oscar Cortes, who's on the bench, needs to be brought on.

Nedim Bajrami has lost possession eight times for Rangers

According to Sofascore, the 25-year-old has lost possession ten times and that has seen St Mirren start counter attacks on a few occasions.

He's also failed to complete a single dribble all game and has also achieved a pass accuracy of less than 70 per cent which is disappointing for a side that's dominating possession.

Bajrami has also lost all of his attempted ground duels, 3, and has also lost his only attempted aerial duel.

With other options on the bench, it makes sense for Clement to make a change at the break, especially, with his side down 1-0.

If not Cortes, he can also bring on Nicolas Raskin and move Mohamed Diomande to a more advanced position.

Another option is to get on Ross McCausland as he would offer a more direct route to goal and will help Gers in the transition as well.
