“Yes, they will STRUGGLE for 3rd or 4th place and……” Chris Sutton SHOCKED by what Rangers man told him live on air in the past 24 hours that will leave Rangers fan ANGRY and….

Chris Sutton Stunned by Rangers Fan’s Astonishing Claim

BBC Sport’s 606 Football Phone In witnessed a remarkable exchange between Chris Sutton and a Rangers fan named Paul, who made a startling admission about the club’s current situation.

Rangers’ Struggles

Paul revealed that he believes Rangers are no longer competing for the Scottish Premiership title, but instead battling for third or fourth place. This stark reality check comes as Rangers find themselves nine points behind leaders Celtic and surprise contenders Aberdeen.

Sutton’s Reaction

Sutton was taken aback by Paul’s statement, exclaiming, “That’s astonishing you’re saying this, Paul.” The former Celtic striker’s surprise underscores the gravity of Rangers’ struggles.

Clement Under Pressure

Rangers manager Philippe Clement is under increasing scrutiny, with fans calling for his head amid the team’s poor form. While Clement isn’t solely responsible, he’ll bear the brunt of criticism.

Player Performances

However, it’s not just Clement who deserves scrutiny; the players must also take responsibility. James Tavernier’s dramatic decline and Cyriel Dessers’ inconsistent performances have contributed to Rangers’ woes.

Dessers’ Challenges

Clement’s limited options up front, due to Danilo’s injury and Hamza Igamane’s lack of readiness, have forced Dessers into a prominent role. Despite this, the Nigerian striker’s displays have left much to be desired.

Title Ambitions

For Rangers to revive their title hopes, they must dramatically improve their form. Failure to do so will condemn them to battling for third place, a prospect that’s increasingly likely.
