After Celtic drew 1-1 against Motherwell, the Rangers were handed a major chance to get back into the title race. All they needed to do was win their games in hand and they would be just three points behind the Hoops in the league table. We have seen the Ibrox side not perform at their best in pressure situations though. And this appeared to be another example of that.

Philippe Clement’s side could manage a 1-1 draw in their game against Aberdeen. And even, they needed a 94th minute penalty to rescue a point from their trip to Pittodrie Stadium.

One man who failed to impress for the Ibrox club once again is Todd Cantwell. So much so that there are even murmurs about a possible departure next summer or even as early as the upcoming January transfer window.

Amidst all this, Cantwell appeared to take what looked like a pretty clear dive in the game against Aberdeen. And one man who was quick to call it out was Chris Sutton.

Sutton retweeted the clip of the moment involving Cantwell along with the seemingly sarcastic caption ‘This isn’t a dive’ and accompanied by a laughing emoji. It does look like one to say the very least.

Of course, Sutton and Cantwell have had their exchanges on social media since his arrival at Ibrox. It remains to be seen if the Rangers player has something to say on this occasion. But he quite certainly is not doing his talking on the pitch at the moment with his performances.

Cantwell had put up decent numbers for the Ibrox club in the second half of last season after arriving in January but has not been able to do the same this time around. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 1 goal and provided 2 assists in 16 appearances so far in the 2023/24 campaign.
