I am delighted that the Rangers’ game has been postponed because of a soggy surface at Dens Park, even though I completely anticipated them to win today. And in light of yesterday, I’m more optimistic about our chances of winning the title. We are currently leading the league after our victory over St Johnstone yesterday. The Rangers now have a game in hand but will not be leading the league going into the international break.I’m okay with the newest Ibrox outfit losing today because I fully expected them to win.

Following Celtic’s impressive display yesterday, I’m feeling more optimistic about our chances of winning the title. Right from the first whistle, we were outstanding. The team was really committed, played with remarkable smoothness, and Brendan had them well-organized. It was also quite satisfying the way we pressed.

That was mostly because of our defense, which was strengthened by Cameron Carter-Vickers’ return. With him in the starting lineup, we feel lot more confident, and he exudes great confidence in everyone around him.

That was made clear when he was substituted shortly after we gave up a goal. He’s a key player who, fingers crossed, stays healthy since he will only strengthen our team in the closing stages.

Callum McGregor, Yang, Luis Palma, Reo Hatate, and Maik Nawrocki are also expected to return following the international break, which will only strengthen our team. There’s no doubt that things are improving.

The attacking tandem of Kyogo and Nicolas Kuhn, who both scored excellent goals, were the standout performers yesterday. Particularly pleasing was Kyogo’s performance, as he appeared more like his former self. While Kuhn keeps impressing everyone and making his detractors, including me, regret what they said.

With Palma and Yang back, Brendan will have a welcome quandary because Kuhn is putting on excellent performances and will be difficult to drop. Since possession constitutes nine tenths of the law, Kuhn should lose. You just need to keep doing what you’re doing to be in this position.

Our team will undoubtedly be more formidable and our bench options more desirable come crunch time. No matter what happens elsewhere today, I for one am feeling a lot more optimistic about our chances of winning the title.
