Rangers Remain Calm Amidst Form Search - Raskin
The pressure is mounting at Ibrox, but despite a recent dip in form, manager Michael Beale insists his Rangers squad are staying calm and focused.
The Gers have been off the pace in recent weeks, dropping points in crucial games and failing to find their usual attacking fluidity. This has led to whispers of discontent amongst supporters, with some questioning Beale's tactics and the team's ability to challenge for the league title. However, the manager remains confident, emphasizing the need for patience and a continued belief in his squad's abilities.
"We're all disappointed with the recent results," Beale admitted, "but I'm not going to panic. This is a tough league, and every game is a battle. We've had some bad luck, yes, but ultimately, we need to do better. We're still in the mix, and we need to keep grinding away."
One key figure who has remained consistent throughout this period is midfielder Todd Raskin. The American international has been a shining light in a sometimes-struggling midfield, showcasing his impressive range of passing, dynamism, and work-rate. His performances have been crucial in providing a much-needed spark in the Rangers attack.
"It's been a tough run, but we're sticking together," Raskin told reporters. "The gaffer is still confident in us, and we're all working hard to get back on track. We know we need to start winning games again, but we're not giving up. We're all in this together, and we're determined to turn things around."
Beale has made it clear that the team's focus remains on winning trophies. Despite the recent struggles, he believes the squad possesses the quality to achieve their goals. He's urging his players to stay calm, keep working hard, and trust the process.
"We're Rangers," Beale emphasized, "and we're used to dealing with pressure. We've been here before. We need to stay focused, keep believing in ourselves, and I'm sure we'll get back to winning ways."
With the transfer window now open, Beale could be looking to add some fresh faces to his squad in order to boost the team's chances in the second half of the season. But for now, the focus is on getting back to winning ways and regaining the confidence that has been missing in recent performances.
It's a crucial period for Rangers, and Beale and his players will be hoping for a positive response in the coming weeks. The pressure is on, but Raskin and his teammates remain determined to prove their doubters wrong.
