Just after reading graeme souness's interview in which he states that he is in no doubt that philippe clement is the correct man to be the current rangers manager ?He says clement knows what he's doing.
29 Nov 2024 22:39:45
What do u think coops?
Do u think he's the man to take us forward?
29 Nov 2024 23:42:01
Do we have a choice?
30 Nov 2024 00:36:13
Right, white horse, regardless of what we want or think, Clement is here for a bit more.
Excellent result yesterday, and hope the players will build on it, get some confidence in their capabilities. However, I do not understand the exaggerated optimism around here after a good result, in which we had considerable luck. We have to realize that Butland had some good saves, that three of our goals were mainly defensive mistakes. And Diomande's masterpiece. I am sure he meant it ?
Let's put together some good results, and have a more watchable display for next few weeks!

Probably reason souness not been a football manager for about 20 year.
30 Nov 2024 07:45:52
Clement only needs a little longer and we seen with certain players on Thursday they are not poor player like is repeatedly mentioned on here by many that would struggle for a game in the Sunday pub league, some just need to understand the massive job he's involved in.

As you know Stevie, clement wasn't my preferred choice when he replaced beale but i totally gave him my backing and i'm still behind him as long as he's rangers manager. He's most definitely not a bad manager as some on here make out and go over the top but he must start getting our domestic form/ results sorted out as obviously europe doesn't pose a problem for him with our performances and results there ?If he can't sort us out domestically then no he's not the man to take us forward, irrespective of how well he does in the european scene ?.

Soccerfan I take it you didn't think Diomande goal was class?
30 Nov 2024 08:15:44
Soccerfan but if that goal came from Hagi it would be outstanding in your eyes, that was some finish and he took it very well.
30 Nov 2024 09:54:40
soccerfan. I do agree about exaggerated optimism but as I've said before there was very good play which led to the mistakes being made and capitalising on them. Also let us drop Butland and not play a goalie as we shouldn't need anyone to make saves by your logic. we could play 2 up front instead.
PC is following the process to make us self-sufficient which the board wants so he is here to stay I think. there will be more bumps before we complete that and some of those will be in league so get used to it for a while. that won't change whether he is still here or not unless it goes so bad we lose most games.
30 Nov 2024 11:50:15
PC will be here for a while yet he will get backed again in summer with new additions and in my opinion he will be assessed on next season results
Board have brought him in on assurances which for me they haven't fulfilled yet and they wouldn't have a leg to stand on sacking him just now
Not until he's had the tine promised and the players he needs then he will be judged properly by the board.
You don't give contract extension then sack him and pay what ever is in his contract if so it did be very bad decisionmaking and bad business by the board in my opinion mark my words I've said it for a while now and I stand by it he isn't going anywhere soon.
30 Nov 2024 11:51:14
I don't understand why our performances have been so poor in the league compared to Europe.
30 Nov 2024 12:03:50
Souness also said there not much between us and other mob except in forward area! He's wrong there stronger all over imo.
30 Nov 2024 12:24:50
Angus 1812 - All agreed on that and I hope very much that he succeeds. My opinion only, but the players he has signed have shown promise that they will gel and deliver. He likes it at Ibrox and he gets it. I thought the pressure was getting to him a few weeks ago but he is still standing.
30 Nov 2024 12:46:52
PC can only play the players he has available for him . He is partially responsible for the players available, as he was here when some were signed . Maybe we allowed players that could have their confidence built up again and get us some better results. Almost our whole team haven’t the experience of Rangers winning.
6 games out of 6, followed by a poor result and another run of good results. Maybe that was one of the reasons PC kept Tav in team so long as he has winning experience.
With very little money to spend it is very difficult to bring in decent players.
