If there is one person tied to Rangers who truly understands what it takes to achieve success, it’s club legend Graeme Souness. His influence kickstarted the legendary run to 9IAR and his legacy at Ibrox solidifies him as one of the Gers’ greatest living legends.
Despite his deep connection to Rangers, evidenced by his recent involvement in advising on Philippe Clement’s appointment, Souness is never one to hold back his opinions. The outspoken pundit made headlines when he clashed with TalkSPORT’s Simon Jordan over Rangers’ title chances, bluntly stating that the team must win every game remaining in the season to secure the title.
During a TalkSPORT interview with Jim White, Souness discussed Rangers’ upcoming challenges against Celtic, emphasizing the importance of victory in these crucial matchups. As the Scottish Premiership heads into its five-game split, Rangers have yet to defeat their fierce rivals this season, adding even more pressure to the upcoming showdowns.
While Souness remains confident in Rangers’ ability to overcome Celtic, Jordan challenged his beliefs, accusing him of bias. Souness defended his viewpoint by highlighting the closely contested nature of previous Old Firm encounters, urging Rangers to come out strong in their next meeting.
Souness’s perspective aligns with Clement’s assertion that Rangers must finish the season flawlessly to have a shot at the title. With only a three-point gap between Rangers and Celtic, every match is a must-win for the team, including the pivotal clash at Celtic Park.
As the race for the Scottish Premiership heats up, Souness’s expertise and unwavering support for Rangers serve as invaluable assets in guiding the team towards potential glory.
