Under-19s coach Stevie Smith oversaw Rangers’ weekend Scottish Premiership draw as the Ibrox side moved on to nine points from eight games.

Rangers’ opening defeats by Genk and Sturm Graz heightened pressure on Rohl’s predecessor Russell Martin before the former Scotland player was sacked earlier this month.

Rohl was Bayern Munich assistant when they won the Champions League, and he says he will take the experience from that into his new role at Rangers.

“I met all the players and when I speak with the players I see a smile again on their face and I think it gives me a good belief that we are on the right way,” he explained. “This is very important.

“The last two training sessions went very well. The team is listening. We have a clear idea, we have a clear match plan. It’s about the right attitude to come to such a place.”

And he added of his time with Bayern: “It was amazing, I learned a lot in this time about the mindset and I think this is exactly what we need in our club.

“The players can play football but they are really soon ready to invest in parts of the game, in pressing and hunting.

“This is very important because we have also great players, we have individual quality here, but if you understand that it’s not just about the quality and think it’s enough to win games then we make a huge step forward.

“We have to start to win games. When I work with different players, even if it’s big, big players, they need to believe.

“I’m convinced if you have a clear direction of how you want to play and you create good moments into the game then your self-confidence is going up and up and it means then some moments in football go easier. But we know it’s about hard working, it’s not just talking.”
