BREAKING NEWS;Philippe Clement fumes at Chris Sutton savage to..
Rangers boss Philippe Clement is being delusional about the comments made after the Celtic defeat, believes Chris Sutton.
He thinks that the Belgian is going down the Pedro Caixinha route and is no longer the manager he was when he took over the reins.
Gers suffered a 3-0 defeat to their arch rivals at Celtic Park and are already playing catch up in the SPFL title race.
Sutton told the Daily Record on 2 September: “I always think about Pedro Caixinha not being believable when he spoke. That was his problem and Clement is going down the same road. When he first came into Rangers, I found him measured and speaking well. I don’t know what has happened or whether it’s just the environment in Glasgow, but it sounded to me as if he was losing the plot.
“Everyone who watched the game realises there’s an enormous gulf between Celtic and Rangers in every single department. To come out afterwards and paint the picture as not being that bad is bordering on delusional. What he says, barring the need for time to implement changes, is just plain wrong and that’s a key issue. Fans hang on his every word. To try and paint that picture when those fans have just watched a horror show lacks credibility.
“Rangers were mauled. Any balanced person could see that Celtic are far superior and could have scored five or six. For him to claim they should have been 2-0 up is irrelevant. Four shots each on target? Kasper Schmeichel only had two real saves to make when the game was finished and it was already 3-0. Equal possession stats? The mad rant about average ages of squads? Boasting about beating Ross County who have been awful this season so far?”
