Allan McGregor picks Rangers heavy XI as he names 'the best midfielder I've ever played with'

Rangers goalkeeper Allan McGregor has named the best players he's ever played with, and only one hasn't graced the Ibrox shirt.

The veteran has played for Scotland, as well as in Turkey and England, but it's his current club who dominate his ideal XI.

Speaking to Rangers TV, McGregor was tasked with picking a team and he lined up in a no-nonsense 4-4-2 system.

Here's who he picked and what he had to say about them.

Allan McGregor's best XI

Goalkeeper - Stefan Klos

"I learned a lot from him. His concentration and his focus, and obviously he was a great goalkeeper as well."

Right-back - Alan Hutton

"He's attacking, good defender, played a number of years at the top level."

Centre-back - David Weir

"Quality. That season with him partnered with Carlos, just a great pairing."

Centre-back - Carlos Cuellar

"I know it was only one season but for that season he was unbelievable."

Left-back - Andy Robertson

"I saw him at Hull. Right from the start you could see he had something and over the piece he learned a lot."

Right-midfield - Lee McCulloch

"I liked him playing there, when he first signed he played there. He was big, he was strong, he was dominant in the air."

Centre-midfield - Barry Ferguson

"Just the best. Leader, great player, great on the ball. Everything about him. Definitely the best midfielder that I've played with."

Centre-midfield - Steven Davis

"You can just see the quality that he's got. He's been a great player over the years."

Left-midfield - Peter Lovenkrands

"The Danish weegie! Lightning, deserved his move when he moved but I thought he scored vital goals for us at important times."

Striker - Kris Boyd

"Goals, isn't it? What can you say about him apart from he just bangs them in all the time."

Striker - Kenny Miller

"Very clever player. Good goalscorer and a good team player as well. A player I would like to have in the dressing room."
