Despite transfer speculation, Tavernier gets the big Clement okay
Philippe Clement doesn’t do team news ahead of a weekend fixture – but broke his own rule to make it clear James Tavernier will lead his Rangers side out for the season opener against Hearts on Saturday lunchtime.
“You know in the moments you don’t win everything everyone looks at the captain. That is part of the job. He fits that role well because he can manage that. I have seen in the past a lot of people break in that situation also.” “Yes, he will start. I will give team selection one time a year so this is the one time I say yes about selection and who is going to start!”
“It’s important to create a top sport culture where everyone is on their toes every day. With ambition to become better. If we can create this culture it is our job as a staff to give them all the tools to develop every day and challenge them. You need people with the right mentality coming into the building.
