As Celtic celebrate a 12th Scottish Premiership title in 13 seasons, jubilant scenes have been met with apathy by Rangers fans. Rangers, once the indisputable domestic kings of global football, had boasted a seemingly unassailable lead over their Old Firm rivals. Following title number 54, Celtic are one behind Rangers’ world record holding 55 domestic crowns and to make things worse, are closing in on the club’s world record 118-strong trophy haul (117). Al-Ahly might claim to be the globe’s most decorated side but when you see some of the trophies they include in the count, there’s really no...

Not many individuals of a Rangers persuasion avoided criticism in the fall-out of the defeat to Celtic that has ultimately seen the destination of the Scottish Premiership title decided. Before a ball was kicked, Philippe Clement was targeted due the starting line-up that had a few questionable selections and the interrogation continued after the final whistle. The Rangers manager made mistakes, but rarely does a boss get everything right for example, Pep Guardiola is famous for overthinking things in big games and sometimes perspective is needed when judgement is made.

Philippe Clement has had his hands tied since taking over at Rangers, this doesn’t make him entirely blamless for surrendering the Scottish Premiership title so meekly. The 2-1 loss to Celtic saw a mixture of players, some running themselves into the ground, whilst others, who are supposed to be senior members of the squad, hid. The manager needs to take a step back and reflect on some of the decisions that he took at Parkhead, if he does, Philippe Clement will see where Rangers desperately must improve.

Philippe Clement would have wanted his senior players, his leadership group, to stand up and be counted against Celtic, what he got instead was nothing short of a disgrace. John Lundstram scored a comic book capers own goal, looking like a pub league player rather than one on tens of thousands of pounds a week. It only got worse when Willie Collum changed his original on-field decision to show the 30-year old a red card, leaving Philippe Clement with no wins from his first three Old Firm derbies as Rangers manager.

Just as more and more Rangers players seem to be getting ruled out for the season, Celtic seem to be getting theirs back and up to full strength. Philippe Clement has had to contend with a squad that has been missing several key players since arriving at Ibrox which makes his achievements to date even more remarkable. Taking Rangers to Parkhead to face Celtic in the final Scottish Premiership meeting between the two sides, the manager must make one decision to avoid a repeat of previous derbies.

Back in January, all the talk was about Rangers moving for Hearts talisman Lawrence Shankland. With injuries devastating the Ibrox forward line and the jury firmly out on the likes of Cyriel Dessers, a new number 9 was top of the Rangers support’s transfer wish list. And yet, as the transfer window ticked down at Ibrox, a move for a new striker continued to prove elusive. It’s something which many believe has cost the club in the second half of the season with a lack of ruthlessness in the final third devastating Rangers at times this campaign. The results against Motherwell and Celtic at Ibro...

Whilst the ribbons are yet to be tied on the final two pieces of silverware in Scotland this season, Rangers fans are already looking towards a summer of Philippe Clement upheaval. The Ibrox side might well end the campaign with a legendary first treble since 2002/03 – and the club’s first since the financial collapse of 2012 – but it hasn’t stopped chatter surrounding the future of several key players. With no fewer than six first-teamers out of contract, and debate surrounding both Connor Goldson and James Tavernier in the press, some of the oldest faces at Ibrox could be shifted out even if...

The Rangers squad have some questions to answer with fans growing tired of the same old faces producing the same old results. The last five Scottish Premiership matches have overseen a near-complete Rangers collapse in the title race with the club’s hopes hanging by a thread. It’s riled a Rangers support who’ve for too long been let down by the same faces bottling it when it comes to the crunch. The Gers support will not be satisfied with second place and as Philippe Clement approaches a crucial juncture, the decisions he makes this summer will define his future at Ibrox. But who stays and who...

First there was Steven Gerrard, then Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Michael Beale, now Philippe Clement has a decision to make with a leadership group that has consistently led Rangers to failure. The Gers boss might not have made the substitutes you wanted in recent games, however, would any of the current squad really have made that much of a difference to a malaise that is flowing through our performances? We saw how the standards that Philippe Clement enforced and the simplifying of a message had a positive impact on Rangers results and got us back into the title race, but the performances o...

Philippe Clement’s Rangers honeymoon is officially over; now the ex-Monaco manager is tasked with holding off a divorce. Whilst no-one is suggesting that the Belgian walks in the wake of the club’s latest title collapse, criticism more closely reserved for his team of perennial let-downs, we’re approaching a crucial juncture. Rangers fans, simply put, will never settle for second place. The core of this Rangers team – three of whom have just been filleted on BBC Scotland – appear to have accepted it. In the face of a title challenge, the same old faces are producing the same old results and an...
