Forgotten Rangers misfit Jose Cifuentes has finally started a game for Cruzeiro two-and-a-half months after leaving Ibrox on loan.
And the Ecuadorian midfielder admitted he has to improve.
He made just six league starts for the Ibrox side after costing them £1.2 million from Los Angeles FC last summer and was sent off in his last Premiership game against Dundee in December before moving on loan to Brazil.
Cifuentes claimed he turned down clubs in England, Russia and Turkey to move to Cruzeiro and his move was initially delayed because of red tape.
But it took him until this week to actually start a game in a goalless draw against Union La Calera after seven appearances off the bench.

And the 25-year-old acknowledged he has to do more to get regular game time.
He said: "I personally need to improve a lot of things. I know that.
"I need to make better decisions on the pitch when I have come on previously. I think you could say that about a lot of our team though because we should have won that game.
"We all need to be self-critical and evaluate what we lacked and where we still need to improve."
Cruzeiro have an option to buy Cifuentes when his loan deal expires at the end of this year and he still has over three years of his deal left at Rangers.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
