SHOCKING EXIT:Philippe Clement Confirm Cyriel Dessers departure…
Glasgow Rangers return to Premiership action on Sunday for the first time since their Old Firm defeat at the start of the month.
The 3-0 defeat to Celtic was certainly an eye-opener for Philippe Clement, and he will soon have to get positive results in this fixture, otherwise he might start coming under serious pressure.
Judging by the performances and results so far, the Belgian should be starting to feel some nerves with regard to where his team are going, as three wins from seven games is poor.
Several players will miss the clash, as Ridvan Yilmaz, Danilo, and Rabbi Matondo face a few more weeks on the sidelines.
This opens up a few spaces in the squad for a couple of new signings to come in and stake a claim in the starting XI, that’s for sure.
Ahead of the match, we at Football FanCast predict the starting XI that Clement will unleash at Tannadice on Sunday afternoon…
The Englishman hasn’t quite been at his imperious best so far this season. The goalkeeper has featured in every minute of every match for the club but has kept just three clean sheets across those seven matches.
He conceded three times against Celtic and could have done better with at least one of the goals as Kyogo Furuhashi found the back of the net from range with ease. Pressure will be on for the former Stoke shot-stopper to help the Light Blues secure all three points on Sunday.
The captain has also struggled to perform to the levels of previous seasons, registering only two assists from seven matches.
Last season, he scored 24 goals in all competitions, yet he doesn’t look like scoring. Could this be the final chapter at Ibrox for the defender? He will have only one more year on his current contract at the end of the season.
