Interim Rangers head coach Barry Ferguson says his team are continually giving themselves too much to do despite a dramatic 4-3 win over Dundee on Saturday night.
The Ibrox side went 2-0 down early doors. Despite halving the deficit before the break, Scott Tiffoney soon restored Dundee's lead, although Rangers rallied and eventually emerged victorious from the seven-goal thriller.
They have now gone two goals behind in five of their last seven fixtures.

Caretaker boss Ferguson was directly asked about such a stat post-match and whether his players are giving themselves too much to do: "Yeah," he simply stated (Sky Sports).
"They [the players] were told, they were warned - 'You have to be really physical and match your opponents individually and collectively'. We never done that. We never done that in the first half.
"I have to go and make changes; I have to make changes to the shape. Yeah, it makes a difference, but I shouldn't have to do that. That's the thing that's frustrating me.
"I told them at half-time and I told them after the game, 'Yep, be happy, it's a difficult place to come, be happy with the three points, but we can't be happy with the performance'."
Rangers now turn their attention to the visit of Hibernian to Ibrox next Saturday.
