As Rangers prepare to face St Mirren on Sunday and then travel to Pittodrie to take on Aberdeen next week, midfielder Connor Barron remains unwavering in his belief that the Ibrox side will make a serious push for the title this season.
Following a resounding 4-0 victory against Steaua Bucharest to boost team morale, Rangers find themselves playing catch-up to Celtic and Aberdeen in the league table. However, Barron is confident that under manager Philippe Clement, the team has what it takes to be strong contenders come May.
With a crucial match against Aberdeen looming, Barron emphasized the importance of consistency and determination within the squad: “We know what we need to do. We showed a reaction in midweek but we can’t stop now. That needs to be what we do every week.”
Despite the pressure of closing the gap on their rivals, Barron remains focused on the immediate task at hand, urging his teammates to focus on their upcoming clash with St Mirren and not get distracted by external noise: “The noise on the outside is just noise. That’s not something we can affect. We just need to make sure we do our jobs now, getting three points whenever we play.”
As Rangers look to build on their recent success and continue their pursuit of silverware, Barron’s determined attitude exemplifies the team’s readiness to face whatever challenges come their way.
