“We have to look at ourselves to get the most out of the team we have now, then we have to make them better and stronger. That has to be the goal for the future.”thinks the Belgian manager who was already in the hot seat in October and November before a series of good results saved him… temporarily. Because the recent defeat at St. Mirren (2-1) and the draw at Motherwell (2-2) brought back this unbearable scent of crisis that the supporters translate with boos and whistles directed towards Clement.
A victory this Thursday could ease tensions a little and delay the deadline for his dismissal, but a defeat would undoubtedly be fatal. Especially at an Ibrox Stadium full of disgruntled Rangers fans. “I know if you don’t get the results people expect from a team, you get criticized. It’s part of the jobputs the former Bruges coach into perspective who does not necessarily consider himself at fault. Do you think that with another manager we would not have made mistakes in defense? Those are things the board will have to decide.”
