Derek Ferguson rings Rangers alarm bells after 'woeful' moment vs Aberdeen

Derek Ferguson was worried about how Rangers started against Aberdeen on Sunday.

Derek McInnes' team have travelled to Pittodrie on 30 August as the Gers look for their first win in the Scottish Premiership.

The Light Blues needed some time to get into the game in the first half, but they gave their fans a few fears before it.

Aberdeen had a chance to score early on in the second minute through Dan Happe, but the Ibrox side were let off the hook.

McInnes started with Dujon Sterling, Emmanuel Fernandez, Olwethu Makhanya and James Penrice once again in defence and they were caught out soon after kick-off.

The Glaswegian outfit surely can't let similar moments repeat themselves after the break if they have any intention of winning the game.

Rangers slammed for giving Aberdeen chance in first half

McInnes certainly needs a dominant win at Pittodrie to show fans that he's the right manager for the Gers.

Happe almost broke the deadlock for Aberdeen when he was left unmarked from a set-piece delivery.

Ferguson couldn't believe what he saw from the Light Blues' defence.

The 27-year-old English centre-back scuffed his volley in the end as the Govan side go into the break with the game level.

Speaking on BBC Sportsound on 30 August, Ferguson said, "Quite alarming, that. Happe just pulls away unmarked. The marking from Rangers is absolutely woeful there."

What Andrew Cavenagh record says about Derek McInnes sack threat

Andrew Cavenagh has invested heavily in McInnes at Rangers this summer.

Kim Min-su, who has started against Aberdeen, became the 12th signing after the Gers paid his £8.5million release clause to Girona.

Kevin Kesly's move to Ibrox is also being worked on after an initial agreement of around £9million with Portland Timbers.

Despite the American owners backing the Scottish manager in the transfer window, there's no guarantee over his future.

If McInnes can't turn things around at the Glaswegian outfit soon, Cavenagh certainly wouldn't have a problem showing him the door.

Russell Martin lasted 123 days in Govan despite the new owners spending significant money on their new project last summer.

The Americans didn't mind cashing in on Danny Rohl either after bringing in multiple players for the German manager in the winter transfer window.

With some of the Ibrox faithful already turning on McInnes, it won't take long for the situation to get worse.
