Andy Halliday issues Rangers keeper claim as he insists Allan McGregor is BETTER than England's No.1

Former Rangers midfielder Andy Halliday reckons Allan McGregor is better than any keeper he's played with - including current England No.1 Jordan Pickford.

McGregor has been in inspired form for Rangers this season, helping them to a first Scottish Premiership title in a decade.

He may be 38 but he's still going strong and made one of the saves of his career against Slavia Prague during the week.

And Halliday, currently playing for Hearts in the Championship, believes he's the best of the best.

Better even than Pickford, who Halliday briefly crossed paths with in a loan spell at Bradford back in 2014/15.

Halliday said on Open Goal : “I love McGregor to bits.

“I played with Jordan Pickford and for me he’s better than Jordan Pickford.

“And listen, Jordan Pickford’s a top goalie. He takes a lot of stick, but he’s England’s number 1.

“But if I was picking my top eleven I’d have Greegsy ahead of him all day.”
