Rangers: Brendan Rodgers speaking in riddles after Ibrox demolition v Hearts
Keith Jackson claims that after Rangers and Philippe Clement destroyed Hearts, Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers was left talking in
riddles.
On Saturday, February 24, at Ibrox, the Light Blues crushed Steven Naismith’s team 5-0 to preserve their two-point advantage over
the Hoops. Celtic earned three points from a regular victory against Motherwell.
Journalist Jackson of the Daily Record has maintained that a two-point advantage is meaningless at this juncture in the season,
although he acknowledges that Rodgers is feeling a touch off due to the Rangers’ recent strong play.
“On the other hand, Rangers smashed five goals past Hearts at Ibrox on Saturday afternoon to cement their place at the top of the
table and the emphatic nature of this routing feeds into the narrative that momentum has switched entirely from one side of Glasgow
to the other,” the writer wrote in a piece for the Daily Record on Monday, February 26.
That explains, in part, why Rodgers was speaking in riddles about stories that had already been written,
but the manager of Celtics might have a happy ending up his sleeve.
“He’s right when he says there are still 33 points to be gained and a two-point lead means very little.”
This season, will Rangers defeat Celtic to win the title?
Rangers will be aware that they haven’t yet secured a victory this season, but considering their current standing in relation to the
beginning of the campaign, Clement’s team is in a great position to win the Premiership.
