What Derek McInnes said to Hearts boss Wouter Vrancken during Rangers full-time row

McInnes told Vrancken he was fortunate to inherit Hearts' squad after the Rangers boss left for Ibrox last summer, during a heated post-match exchange at Tynecastle.

Derek McInnes returned to Tynecastle for the first time since leaving Hearts to join Rangers, with the two Scottish Premiership rivals playing out a 1-1 draw. Olwethu Makhanya rescued a point for Rangers in the closing stages, though Hearts dominated much of the match and felt they should have won.

Tensions boiled over at full-time when McInnes and Hearts boss Wouter Vrancken exchanged words. McInnes later revealed he had told the Belgian that he was "fortunate to have such a good squad" — a pointed reference to the players Vrancken inherited when McInnes departed for Rangers last summer.

Vrancken questioned the genuineness of McInnes's handshake, saying it "has to be genuine amongst colleagues," though the two spoke afterwards and resolved the matter. McInnes expressed disappointment that Rangers didn't perform well enough to take all three points.
