It’s the same old simple theory and it feels as if it’s trotted out before every Old Firm derby these days. But it’s easier said than done. But very rarely have Rangers actually managed to find a way of doing it. Over six of these fixtures now Philippe Clement has tried about every trick in the managerial book. And he’s still searching for the right answer.
“Obviously we’ll look at that as well in case that is the way forward. If you understand the game you realise that, at some point, you have to give up something. If you’re man-marking certain players then that means there has to be space somewhere else. It’s then about us bypassing that and finding a different solution. It’s the same in every game. There are teams in the league that will try and do certain things to stifle us, whether it be the build up or try and force the ball wide.
His intention is to ‘cut out the chaos’ which left the Premier Sports Cup final in the balance until Celtic clinched it from the penalty spot. That one was way too close for comfort. “The good thing about it is, all these years later, you know exactly what’s coming and you’re prepared for it. And then you just find a rhythm and a tempo to everything that you do that makes you in the best possible place for these games.
“And you have to win. So it tests your ultimate mentality as in the difficult moments you have to find a way and it’s not always pretty, it’s not always beautiful football.
