No problem in front of goal, these days, given the eight put past Queen’s Park in the Scottish Cup at the weekend. <\/p>\n
There have been far tougher challenges than the Spiders for this resurgent Rangers side, but they have only suffered one defeat in the Premiership under Rohl – a 2-1 loss at Tynecastle in December.<\/p>\n
That record is evidence for the head coach of not just improving performance but a far tougher mentality.<\/p>\n
“Ten to twelve weeks ago, you’d go into games and you thought ‘hopefully, hopefully’. <\/p>\n
“Now you go into a game saying ‘of course we will win and if we do this, this and this right, we have a big opportunity to take the next few points’. <\/p>\n
“This is the most important thing with the players – to go into games and think ‘if we do our things 100%, we will win games’. This winning mindset is great.”<\/p>\n
After seven victories from their past eight Premiership outings – the only blip being a goalless draw at Easter Road – that winning mentality is now well and truly established, with Rangers firmly in what appears to be a three-way fight for the title with Hearts and Celtic. <\/p>\n
A lot more will be learned about their resilience and mental fortitude by the end of this week, when they will have faced league-leaders Hearts as well as in-form Motherwell, who have not conceded so much as a goal at Fir Park since the middle of October.<\/p>\n
“We have to deliver game by game and it starts really tomorrow,” Rohl said. <\/p>\n
“It feels great at the moment that we’re on such a run. That we took a lot of wins, conceded fewer goals, and are scoring goals. All things that give us a big belief and trust in what we are doing. <\/p>\n
“But the season is still long, a lot of big games ahead. It makes no sense to look too far away, but if we can continue on our way then there is a chance for more.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No problem in front of goal, these days, given the eight put past Queen’s Park in the Scottish…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":418273,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-418537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/418537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=418537"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/418537\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/418273"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=418537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=418537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=418537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
