Rangers won their first piece of silverware in almost two years on Sunday evening and Philippe Clement will be gunning for more success this season.
Philippe Clement has talked of the party that followed Rangers‘ first League Cup in 13 years after they beat Aberdeen 1-0 at Hampden on Sunday – whilst also delving into coefficient discourse by comparing the Scottish and Belgian leagues.
Only two months at the helm for any manager is a relatively short timespan, but Clement has taken that in his stride with a piece of silverware and an unbeaten spell as Gers boss to match. He’s been well received in Govan as Rangers potentially could go top of the Scottish Premiership if they win their games in hand, though there remains a long way to go yet, as he addressed a title race with a ‘marathon’ tag.
But it was the aftermath of the Hampden success that was key on the agenda for the Belgian, who admitted that his side partied but not too hard with a tough task against St Johnstone coming on Wednesday evening – before discussing how to develop Rangers’ B team as he talks Belgian’s golden generation and how they compared with the current SPFL setup. Football Scotland takes a look at seven key takeaways from Tuesday’s press conference at Auchenhowie.
