Philippe Clement has told his off-form Rangers players they must embrace an intense environment where results dictate whether they go to 바카라heaven or hell바카라. (More Football News)
The Gers were widely lauded after a consistent run of form that saw them wipe out Celtic바카라s eight-point advantage at the top of the cinch Premiership to briefly take over at the summit in February.
However, they go into this Sunday바카라s Scottish Gas Scottish Cup semi-final against on-song Hearts having been ferociously criticised after slip-ups away to Ross County and Dundee over the past week left them with just two wins from their last eight games in all competitions and their title hopes hanging by a thread.
바카라If you win 10 games in a row, you have more belief than when you lose two times but this is Rangers, this is a club where you always have to fight,바카라 said Clement.
바카라Every point you lose, it바카라s like you바카라re going to hell. That바카라s this world, and that바카라s good. That바카라s also the challenge and it바카라s interesting to see which players can live in that way.
바카라But it바카라s an exciting place to be because on the other side you can go also to heaven when you win games and when you win trophies.
바카라In other teams, where it바카라s not so important to win points or when it바카라s not something dramatic when you lose points, you cannot go to heaven also because those are not the clubs that win trophies. This is something you need to embrace.바카라
Clement insists he is comfortable with the intense scrutiny and criticism he has faced amid Rangers바카라 recent 바카라bumps in the road바카라.
바카라I know it바카라s part of the job,바카라 he said. 바카라I바카라ve been now more than 30 years in this world and I바카라ve been buried a lot of times as a player and as a manager, so I know what I바카라m doing in a club. I know what I바카라m doing in this club. I know we are on the right road together.바카라
Clement described the demands of being in charge of Rangers as similar to managing former club Brugge in his homeland.
바카라Winning, becoming champion, is the only thing that counts,바카라 he said. 바카라But I바카라ve been like that all my life. There is nobody who can be more critical than me because I want to win everything.
바카라Everybody who knows me from when I was a child, whether it was basketball, tennis or table tennis or whatever sport, I want to win. I made a lot of fights with my wife about that, that I wanted that mentality with my children because I did it with them also.
바카라If I played a game with them and they were three years old, I wanted to win. That is the mentality that is necessary in a club like this, but you need to embrace that.
바카라It바카라s also because of that that you can be successful and you can win trophies and have these exciting moments that will stay with you for the rest of your life. That is what Rangers is about and that바카라s why I love to be here.바카라
Clement galvanised Rangers earlier in the season after replacing Michael Beale in October.
Asked what he would say to supporters who fear the resurgence is fizzling out, the Belgian said: 바카라The same thing I said in October. I think this team since October did improve in results, in attitude and resilience, and in six months they proved it several times.
바카라So it바카라s there, they can do it. They바카라ve shown it several times with quality. That바카라s what they need to do again. So, yes, my belief is there 200 per cent.바카라
