The defender reunited with the Rangers manager Steven Gerrard at Ibrox in the summer.
Jon Flanagan’s performance for Rangers on Thursday has prompted a strong reaction from some of the Ibrox faithful.
Flanagan, who was brought to Rangers by his former Liverpool teammate Steven Gerrard in the summer, set up Daniel Candeias to score the Gers’ second goal of the night against Spartak Moscow.
But his defending, it seems, left much to be desired, after Rangers, who led three times in the Russian capital, collapsed to lose 4-3.
This is what those of a Rangers persuasion are saying about the former Liverpool full-back’s display…
Jon Flanagan at left back is the worst hing that’s happened tae me this week.

Tav has been off the pace past few weeks i agree he hasnt been the same player! But to suggest he should he replaced with Jon Flanagan is embarrassing hopefully borna can get fit asap so we dont have to see him in another Rangers jersey

Get Jon Flanagan benches for a few games. Get Andy Halliday starting.

A don’t know where it’s acceptable to try play a risky pass on your 18 yard box under pressure….apparently Europa league in Moscow ♂️ Jon Flanagan

Have never hated a Rangers player more than I hate Jon Flanagan

Only thing to take away from this is that Jon Flanagan’s a pure liability

Hope the Russian mafia kidnap Jon Flanagan and a few of his mates

Jon Flanagan clears that n we win 3-2 it’s that simple. He needs to go

Two main things from that Rangers game. How was Jon Flanagan a regular for Liverpool at one stage?
And Steven Gerrard has ruined Nikola Katic. Been awful in the two games he’s played since being inexplicably dropped

Jon Flanagan you’re a pathetic excuse of a professional footballer

Jon Flanagan should never have played that game. Total liability.

A Roman Eremenko own goal and two at the right end from Candeias and Glenn Middleton, were cancelled out by strikes from Lorenzo Melgarejo, Connor Goldson – who joined Eremenko by putting past his own goalkeeper – and Luis Adriano, before Sofiane Hanni’s winner – which arrived barely a minute after the Brazilian’s leveller – at the Otkritie Arena.
The result leaves Rangers, who had an Alredo Morelos goal wrongly ruled out at 3-2, third in Europa League Group G, with two games left to play.

Gerrard’s side were without Ryan Kent, another of their summer signings from Liverpool, against Spartak, although Ovie Ejaria played.
What have you made of Flanagan’s performances since joining Rangers from Liverpool?
