Rangers horrendous reality shared after what Philippe Clement said
Rangers have been "horrendously bad" for some time now under Philippe Clement, Stevie Clifford says.
The Four Lads Had a Dream man believes the Belgian manager is wrong to think the Light Blues have been in better form over the last two months.
Clement has lost the backing of the majority of the Bears' fanbase, with the most significant issue being the performances.
Speaking on The Rangers Review (1 January), Clifford said: "Clement has gone on a good run of form, and not for a few weeks or months, but now for a period of eight to nine months, the performances have been consistently horrendously bad. He spoke about having two months of better form. In reality, it was two or three weeks.
"I've heard fans describe us as an average team that sometimes perform well, not a good team that sometimes perform averagely. That's the biggest issue. That's where I am with Clement. That's why the majority have lost faith."
Philippe Clement lying about Rangers form
Clement was brilliant during his initial days at Ibrox, winning the Scottish League Cup last season.
The Belgian manager's honeymoon period at the Light Blues was shortlived, though, and the team have regressed in recent months.
Since the start of the 2024/25 campaign, the 50-year-old head coach has failed to bring the best out of the squad at his disposal.
Rangers put in better displays around the start of December, but it seems like it was just a blip, with a case of De Ja Vu from previous managers setting in.
The Bears were evidently at their best against Tottenham in the Europa League and Celtic in the Premier Sports Cup final.
Clement had taken positive steps at the Glaswegian outfit, but all of that has come crashing down after failing to win against St Mirren and Motherwell.
The Belgian's sacking at Ibrox looks inevitable, and failure to win against Celtic at home on 2 January will surely be the final nail in the coffin for him.
Patrick Stewart has just arrived at the Light Blues, and fans will expect the new CEO to sack the head coach if he fails to get his first win in seven Old Firm derbies.
In other Rangers news, Clement could take a risk with a key player and make four changes to his lineup against Celtic.
