Andy Halliday is delighted to be being deployed in a holding midfield role for Rangers and believes it is his most natural and best position. 

The midfielder is filling his boots in the absence of Joey Barton and has started as a holding midfielder in Rangers' last three games, a 0-0 draw with Ross County, a 5-0 League Cup win over Queen of the South and a 2-1 loss to Aberdeen, in which he scored the consolation from the penalty spot.




Halliday feels he is putting in good performances and insists he feels at his best operating as a holding midfielder for the Gers.

He told Rangers TV: "I think it's my best position probably in this team to be honest.
 


"I think it's a lot more natural to me in terms of my attributes as a football player", Halliday continued.

"I've really enjoyed playing there the last three games. It's really good to be back in the team, playing and playing well."

However, the most important thing for Halliday, a boyhood Rangers fan, is to see the Gers winning. And the midfielder is keen for Mark Warburton's men to return to winning ways this coming weekend when Partick Thistle visit Ibrox.

"But it's a results business and the most important thing for us is to try and get some momentum going and get that winning mentality back into our team.

"So all guns blazing for Saturday", Halliday added.

In total Halliday has made 61 appearances for Rangers in all competitions since signing for the club last summer, chipping in with 13 goals and providing eight assists.
