Rangers beat Hamilton 4-1 on Sunday to keep pace in the Premiership but fans were concerned about summer signing Lassana Coulibaly.

He looked the part when he first arrived at Ibrox on loan from French side Angers and fans were signing his praises.

But he suffered a hamstring injury, missing the games against Motherwell and Celtic, and many fans don’t think he’s been the same since.

He played the full 90 minutes on Sunday but fans weren’t impressed and took to Twitter to show concern over their new signing.

Here are the best reactions from Rangers fans:

OPINION

If you just looked at the score of the Rangers match you’d think it was an easy victory for Steven Gerrard’s men against struggling Hamilton, but nothing could be further from the truth. Rangers really struggled to create any chances and but for a sublime pass from Alfredo Morelos and a neat finish from Ryan Kent, this game could have been really different. It looked like Hamilton were going to nick a deserved point when they equalised in the 80th minute but Rangers found another gear, and three late goals, and secured the three points. That’s the most important thing for Rangers but it can’t paper over the cracks that are present in this Rangers side and Coulibaly was at fault on Sunday. He hasn’t looked the same since his injury and Gerrard needs to get him buzzing again. He was one of the team’s best players at the start of the season and they need his influence back again.
