John Souttar sparks Rangers dressing room unrest fears as ‘everything aint rosy’

The defender gave an awkward response when asked if he agreed with his manager

Derek Ferguson fears all is not rosy in the Rangers dressing room after John Souttar’s recent press conference.

Souttar was quizzed on his manager Philippe Clement’s claim that we wouldn’t see the best of this Gers team until around October time. Asked if he agreed with that assertion, the stony-faced defender paused momentarily before replying simply “Yes” in what proved an awkward presser moment.

That was another warning sign for former Ibrox midfielder Ferguson who had already been concerned about the body language of the players. And he feels that an experienced player like Souttar would have known to be a bit more savvy when dealing with the press, sparking fears there was an underlying issue.

He told Ibrox News: “There could be, and the reason I’m saying that is because I watched all the preseason games and at times you look at the body language of the players and it didn’t look too clever to me in certain games. So that flagged up for me. And this is an experienced player that’s been around the block so there might be a little bit of a disagreement there.

“Sometimes you keep that in house and you’ve just got to box clever when you’re speaking to the press. It just sets alarm bells ringing a little bit. But sometimes you just get a sense that everything ain’t rosy. Just watching games and watching them out there at times, the relationships between the players, camaraderie, I don’t know, it’s just not quite there.

 

“We’re struggling in so many departments. It’s all doom and gloom with me but it’s quite scary when you look at the position that Rangers are in at the moment.
