​Kris Boyd is never one to mince words, but his latest assessment has sent shockwaves through the Ibrox faithful. The former Rangers marksman has officially named Manny Fernandez as the most “underrated and disrespected” player in the current squad, following the defender’s recent standout performances and subsequent international recognition.
​While much of the media spotlight has focused on the fluctuating form of the Rangers frontline, Boyd has pivoted his attention to the backline. He argues that Fernandez has been the silent engine of the team’s defensive stability under Danny Röhl. Despite being a relatively fresh face in the top flight, Fernandez’s “old-school” ability to tackle effectively and his aerial dominance have made him an “asset” that Boyd believes is too often overlooked by the wider punditry.
​”He is strong in the air, has great pace, and can tackle—something that is disappearing in the modern game,” Boyd noted. The pundit expressed frustration that while others grab headlines for goals, Fernandez’s dirty work often goes unrewarded. With the title race entering its most frantic stage, Boyd’s verdict is clear: stop disrespecting the defensive shifts, or Rangers will pay the price at the finish line
