Graeme Souness feels that Celtic have been dealt a serious blow in the title fight after missing out on winning the Premiership.
For the second time in the league under Philippe Clement, Rangers made a mistake.They fell short of Motherwell 2-1, and with a two-point advantage, they gave Celtic the opportunity to take the lead with a victory over Hearts on Sunday.
The Jambos won 2-0 in a match that was heavily influenced by VAR, which maintains Brendan Rodgers’ team in second position. There are still two derby matches in the league, along with other difficult matches, but Rangers legend Souness believes Celtic has missed their opportunity to turn the tide in the title race.
“For the Rangers, this weekend was still fantastic,” he stated. merely because Celtic believed that this was their chance going into the match on Sunday.
“They worked really hard, but they still made mistakes. Although they did have a player sent off, Celtic suffered a serious setback this weekend as they were unable to catch up after witnessing Rangers make a mistake the day before.
“They went from a team that felt sorry for themselves a few months ago to a team that is full of beans now, which makes me happy. who believe they can win every game and who eagerly anticipate participating in each one. There is a strong sense of belief that the Rangers will succeed.
“Rangers are currently in the driver’s seat. They win the league and every game they play. They are a much better Rangers, in my opinion, and as a manager, you always want more from your players. Never settle for less than you deserve; always prepare for the worst. Since everyone else is getting better, we have to as well.”
