Pundit Jamie O'Hara has claimed Rangers would survive in the Premier League - while Glasgow rivals Celtic would be doomed to relegation.
Reports this morning claim Premier League clubs who walked away from the English Super League are hoping to bring the Premiership sides into a 'British Super League'.
The claims sparked a debate on radio station talkSport over how the Scottish giants would perform south of the border.
O'Hara reckons that Steven Gerrard 's side would be able to compete with the best clubs in England, however predicts dethroned champions Celtic would struggle.
He said: “Right now, if they got put in tomorrow, I think Rangers would survive, they would stay up.
"If you put them in the Premier League now I think Rangers would stay up with Steven Gerrard in charge. They’ve had a great season.
"Celtic would go down, I’d put them up for relegation."
However, O'Hara believes if the move takes place, both clubs will be given time to adjust to the new set-up.
He added: “On that I would say that if you gave them a transfer window and a season to bed in I think they would compete for the top six because they are huge football clubs.
"They'd need a couple of seasons to find their feet.
“If Rangers come into the Premier League with Steven Gerrard as manager, are you telling me he wouldn’t be able to attract some of the best players in the world?"
Fellow pundit and Rangers icon Ally McCoist warned against a "hypocritical" decision in the shadow of the European Super League collapse.
However, he believes the risk of relegation does make the potential switch different.
McCoist said: "We have spoken over the past three days about the unfairness of the European Super League, with relegation scrapped, we’re the top six and we're going and that’s it, so let's not be hypocritical about the whole thing.
“At the same time there would be promotion and relegation so it would be different.
“I’m not sure Rangers or Celtic would get invited straight into it. They would maybe start off in the Championship.”
