Danny Rohl knows what he must now do at Rangers after Ibrox sack latest

Danny Rohl seems to have survived the latest round of sack talk at Rangers.

The German manager revealed in his pre-Hibernian press conference that the board has given him their backing to remain as manager.

His side have been pushed out of Scottish Premiership title contention with a run of three losses, and the pressure is set to rise on the 37-year-old.

The summer is absolutely crucial for the manager and for the majority ownership, the 49ers Enterprises and Andrew Cavenagh need to get it right.

It is clear what Rohl needs to do to get Rangers back into title contention, and he must take notice, otherwise he will be doomed.

The latest breaking news on signings, departures, and Danny Röhl’s primary targets.

What must Rohl’s priority be at Rangers

Rangers are in need of a huge rebuild in the summer, and their priority must be building around experienced Scottish talent.

The mentality is lacking at the moment, and bringing in players with knowledge of the league and what it means to play for the Gers is vital.

Previous successful Gers sides have had this in abundance, with the likes of Barry Ferguson and Ally McCoist, and the hierarchy needs to address the issue before it is too late and another season is wasted.

What Scottish options does Rohl already have?

The only Scottish players to play significant roles for the Light Blues this season are John Souttar and Connor Barron, and that is not enough.

The former has featured 37 times, for a total of 3,094 minutes in all competitions, while the latter has made 35 appearances for 1,781 minutes.

That needs to change, they need to get their identity back, whether that is signing Scottish players in the market, or bringing them through the academy and showing faith in them.

Rohl has the likes of Findlay Curtis and Lyall Cameron that he could reintegrate when they return from their loan spells at Kilmarnock and Aberdeen, if he decides that they are ready to make an impact.

Aiden McCallion, Calum Adamson and Zander Hutton are all potential homegrown options that he could call up from the academy, if he wants to build a core that know what it means to pull on the blue shirt.
