Philippe Clément returned to victory, but from now on, he will have to continue. Rangers have lost 4 points to Celtic since their resounding victory in the Old Firm, a completely wasted advantage.
The victory of Glasgow Rangers in the Old Firm should have been a trigger: a slap in the face inflicted on Celtic which could have allowed us to move forward and put Philippe Clément in a more comfortable position. Catching up with the rival seemed utopian, but a burst of pride was necessary.
Problem: since this great victory, Rangers have completely squandered the profits, drawing twice in the following three matches while Celtic did not give up. And here is the leader again, 16 (!) points behind his pursuer.
On Sunday, Rangers raised their head, beating St Johnstone, bottom of the championship. But we will now have to move on: this Wednesday, they host Aberdeen, 4th in the standings and on a very bad run (4 defeats in 5 matches).
Philippe Clement no longer has room for error and he knows it: “To be honest, I get even hungrier when the challenge becomes more difficult,” declared the former Red Devil at a press conference. “A lot has changed in recent months and that has made this challenge more difficult, indeed.”
The Belgian coach therefore wants to keep his head high. “I am a winner, I always have been. You have to be hungry every morning when you get up to enjoy the day and try to improve those around you, that is the daily ambition and that will never change “, he concludes.
