Philippe Clement Reacts to Rangers’ Performance Following Draw with Dundee United

Rangers manager Philippe Clement stated, “‘Now is not the time to talk about titles’.” Clement further explained that the team’s immediate focus should be on “raising our level,” given that they “don’t have control over how many points other teams take.” He also remarked on the points tally, asserting, “”It’s totally not acceptable to lose that many points [13 so far this season]. We all know, I know, the players know so there’s hard work to be done to make that better the next couple of months.”” Clement conveyed frustration regarding the dropped points in a match where his team created significantly more scoring opportunities and maintained greater ball possession than their opponent. He also expressed disappointment with the first-half display, describing it as “not good enough” due to a lack of quality in the final third, insufficient initiative, and inadequate player availability. Conversely, the manager indicated greater satisfaction with the second-half performance, observing that it reflected the desired style of football that the team has previously demonstrated. He emphasized the necessity of sustaining such a performance for the entire 90 minutes to secure victories, a feat they have accomplished historically.
