Shiels and Warburton clashed earlier this year when the former derided the signing of Harry Forrester.

Ironically, his latest outburst, said on The Fitba Hacks podcast, comes after a weekend in which Forrester played a starring role in Rangers’ 2-1 win at Dundee.

Despite the victory, Rangers’ first back in the top flight, Shiels still believes there is a fundamental flaw in Warburton’s passing system.

He said: “He [Warburton] has got very predictable and has been found out a bit. I feel they’ll have a mediocre season because teams know how to play against them now.

“There is no mix in how he plays. It’s OK saying we have to have a way of playing, a style of playing but you must have a variety within that.

“If I were setting up teams against them I’d be very confident and I’m sure other coaches are thinking the same.”
