Ally McCoist, a Rangers legend, has expressed his disappointment after the team’s shocking 1-0 loss to Kilmarnock.
The defeat leaves Rangers six points behind both Celtic and Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership, further denting their title hopes.
McCoist didn’t just focus on the players’ poor performance; he also pointed out the club’s broader issues.
Speaking on talkSPORT, McCoist stated that Rangers “look all over the place” both on and off the pitch.
Despite having some solid stats, like second-place finishes in shots taken and possession, their lack of consistency is worrying.
Ally McCoist Slams Rangers’ Defensive and Offensive Struggles
McCoist was particularly concerned about Rangers’ defensive performance. He explained that every time a ball is crossed into the box, there is a sense of unease among fans, fearing that the defense will not hold.
On top of that, McCoist pointed out that the team had very little attacking threat during the game, especially in the final third.
He took the opportunity to praise Kilmarnock’s manager, Derek McInnes, for his organized and efficient style, calling him one of the best Scottish managers in recent years.
In contrast, McCoist felt that Rangers looked disjointed and struggled to find any rhythm during the match.
Ally McCoist Questions the Direction of Rangers
Beyond the game itself, McCoist expressed his concern about the internal issues at Rangers. He believes the club is facing problems both in the dressing room and in the boardroom, which could hinder their chances of success.
Rangers’ upcoming fixtures, including a Europa League match against Steaua Bucharest and a home game against St Mirren, will be crucial in determining the future of manager Philippe Clement.
McCoist warned that the pressure on the club and its manager will only grow if these issues continue. A poor result against Aberdeen could be the tipping point for Clement, as the Dons are currently in strong form.
