‘Wipe The Floor and……’ – Rangers WARNED About Celtic by Ex-Attacker

Rangers Warned: “Better-Quality Teams Will Wipe the Floor” with Current Form

Former top-flight attacker Tam McManus has issued a stark warning to Rangers, stating that their current form will not suffice against stronger opponents. McManus believes that teams like Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League and Celtic domestically will capitalize on Rangers’ weaknesses.

Rangers’ Unconvincing Season

Philippe Clement’s Rangers have struggled to impress this season, sitting nine points off league leaders Celtic. While they have reached the Scottish League Cup final and remain in contention for Europa League knockout round qualification, McManus is unconvinced.

“I think when they come up against a better-quality team, they are going to get punished,” McManus said on PLZ Soccer. “They have some big-quality teams coming up, they have Tottenham in the Europa League, they have Nice in the Europa League, and they have Celtic in the League Cup final.”

McManus’ Concerns

McManus cited Rangers’ inability to dominate games and create scoring opportunities as major concerns. He also questioned the team’s defensive solidity, highlighting the potential for stronger teams to exploit these weaknesses.

“Rangers playing like that, those teams will wipe the floor with Rangers for me,” McManus emphasized. “I just don’t think they are playing great football.”

International Break: Opportunity for Improvement

During the international break, Clement will have the chance to work with his players and address their shortcomings. Rangers will resume action against Dundee United on November 23rd.

Europa League Challenges Ahead

Rangers face a daunting task in the Europa League, with matches against Tottenham, Nice, and Manchester United looming. Securing knockout round qualification will require significant improvement.

McManus’ Assessment

McManus, who played for various clubs including Hibernian and Dunfermline Athletic, brings a wealth of experience to his analysis. His assessment of Rangers’ current state is a sobering reminder of the challenges ahead.

Celtic’s Dominance

Celtic’s nine-point lead in the Scottish Premiership underscores their dominance. Rangers’ inability to mount a consistent challenge has raised concerns about their title aspirations.

Tottenham’s Europa League Pedigree

Tottenham, with their rich European experience, pose a significant threat to Rangers. McManus believes that Spurs’ quality will shine through against Rangers’ current form.

Conclusion

Tam McManus’ warning serves as a wake-up call for Rangers. With tougher opponents on the horizon, Clement’s team must improve significantly to avoid embarrassing defeats.

Rangers’ fans will anxiously await the team’s response to McManus’ criticisms, hoping that the international break will provide the necessary catalyst for change.
