Philippe Clement makes ‘Quite incredible’ Rangers decisions at Ibrox
Derek Ferguson described Philippe Clement’s ability to keep Rangers singing despite making changes to his lineup as “quite
incredible.”
Premiership.
If the Light Blues win this Saturday, February 24, they might close the gap to five points. Celtic will host Motherwell the following day.
Speaking exclusively to Ibrox News, Ferguson expressed his uncertainty over the side that would be released, citing the difficulty of
second-guessing the Rangers manager.
“It’s quite difficult to identify his ideas and what he’s thinking. He remarked, “You talk about Ross McCausland, he’s had a great run
there.”
“He wasn’t playing at his best one game, but the manager stuck with him for the full 90 minutes. Scott Wright entered the game after
him and didn’t perform particularly well; it was against St Johnstone.
“Cyriel Dessers, once more—the likelihood that he has been absent—occasionally makes you kind of shake your head, but Dessers is a
tester; he gives it his all.
“I couldn’t tell you the team; even Borna Barisic, the left back, seems to be chopping and changing.” Next, Todd Cantwell has been
playing out of his skin in the middle of the park, where Tom Lawrence is back and totally fit.
He always manages to pull a tune out of them, which is quite amazing. He appears to play them and get specific minutes out of them
before bringing in other musicians for a while.
“I think that’s gone—having a starting lineup and playing three, four, or five games—because he always talks about the team. I know he
looks at this game and knows it’s a big one, but I also think he’s got an eye on the other games we have coming up, like Kilmarnock and
the Europa League.
“He has the majority of them in shape; a few will return, but what will that side entail? I’m not sure, but I’m thinking that team, who
now lead by two points, will be fired up.
“I’m not sure about Dessers; maybe McCausland, maybe Fabio Silva will return.” I’m not sure, but there will be players that will be
competitive and put on a fantastic show in addition to winning.
