Keith Jackson recently expressed his strong disapproval of Rangers’ decision to extend Philippe Clement’s contract as their manager, calling it a “ludicrous” move. This decision came as a surprise to many, especially given the team’s poor performance at the start of the season. Jackson, along with fellow journalist Scott McDermott, agreed that the decision did not make sense and questioned the reasoning behind it.
The season has not been going as planned for Rangers, as they currently sit in third place in the Scottish Premiership, trailing behind Celtic by six points. While it is true that the team welcomed several new players during the summer transfer window and needed time to gel, the results have not improved as expected. Clement had asked for patience from fans and the media, promising a better performance by October. However, with little improvement seen so far, doubts are growing about his ability to turn things around.
Despite the challenges, a positive result in the upcoming game against FCSB in the Europa League could potentially boost Clement’s position and win over some fans. However, if the team’s performance does not improve soon, Clement may face the possibility of losing his role as manager of Rangers. The pressure is on for Clement to prove his worth and show that he is capable of leading the team to success.
In addition to the speculation surrounding Clement’s future, former player Kevin Muscat has once again been linked to the managerial position at Rangers. This adds another layer of uncertainty to the situation, as fans and pundits alike speculate on the potential changes that could be made to improve the team’s performance.
As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Rangers and Philippe Clement to see if they can overcome their challenges and turn their fortunes around. The upcoming matches will be crucial in determining the team’s success and the future of Clement as the manager. Stay tuned for more updates on Rangers and their journey in the Scottish Premiership.
