Philippe Clement takes swipe at Dundee’s pitch as title permutations promise hell to pay

Rangers’ title challenge is now in jeopardy after the 0-0 draw, despite his team’s significantly improved performance, according to critics.

The run has been dubbed a “mini-league” by Cyriel Dessers, one of Clement’s most trusted lieutenants, ahead of the final six games of the season, which include May’s Scottish Cup Final.

However, with further surprises in store in the upcoming weeks, it’s possible that the Rangers manager’s remarks regarding the Dens Park pitch could soon come under closer scrutiny.

After Rangers defeated Hearts 2-0 at Hampden, manager Philippe Clement praised his team.

Some Rangers supporters may have noticed the Belgian’s frustrations, but it wasn’t in the praises that the manager of the team took the opportunity to criticize Dundee’s play.

Clement has taken aim at the contentious Dens Park surface after that agonizing 0-0 draw solidified a three-point deficit between Rangers and Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

In case the Dens Park result proves to be significant in the title battle, save these remarks for a later time. It seems that the draw with Dundee had a significant outcome.

When questioned about the significance of the Scottish Cup victory over Hearts, Clement told BBC Sportsound (live 21/04/24) that “it’s a very important thing because we had two knocks this week.”

Regarding Ross County I was really not happy about that. Dundee, I believe we were unlucky in that game, and I believe that we played better football back then than we do now in a typical game.

“We are where we are because we keep doing what we have been doing for the past few months. We are vying for titles, competing in a cup final, and desperately seeking more awards.

“I believe that everyone in Scotland will be extremely pleased that there is a genuine challenge and excitement about that.”

Subsequently, the Rangers manager continued to criticize the Dundee field and the fact that Rangers was the only team to play in the middle of the week prior to the Scottish Cup semifinals.

“Everything is still there, but I only look forward to the next game and to perform there, and it’s been a really difficult season in that regard,” the Belgian continued.

Considering all of the team’s ailments and the games we participated in. For example, we were the only team in Europe to play after January.

“We were the only team to play in a game the week prior to this cup semifinal today as well.

Thus, you must also consider all of these factors. Cyriel needed to relax on Wednesday in order for him to be ready for today.

In response to a question concerning the distinction between the Hearts match and the draw with Dundee, Clement said, “We demonstrated our skill on the ball.” This, in my opinion, was the difference today.
