Danny Rohl's RB Salzburg comments are a slap in the face to Rangers fans everywhere
Danny Rohl risks angering Rangers supporters everywhere after joining Red Bull Salzburg.
The widely expected departure was finally confirmed by the Gers on Wednesday.
The Govan side will get around £2million in compensation it is believed and are close to appointing his replacement.
Derek McInnes looks set to be that man and the Light Blues are already trying to finalise some of his coaching staff.
It is probably the best possible outcome for all parties, as many fans felt the former Sheffield Wednesday man was not the right fit.
However, Ibrox supporters will surely have questions after what the German boss has said about his new appointment.
What did Danny Rohl say about Salzburg move?
Rohl confirmed that his new side will try to play on the front foot, when asked what attracted him to the role.
Speaking via the club's official website, he said: “That’s precisely what attracted me.
"Salzburg stands for courageous, intense, and attacking football – a style of football I strongly identify with and which also aligns with my own vision of the game.
"Together, we want to develop a team that plays with energy, determination and with a clear style of play.”
That should be a slap in the face for Gers fans everywhere, as they will surely be asking where was that attitude when he was in charge of the G51 club.
Rangers should play with courage, with a clear style and energy about them, and his side lacked that on many occasions.
How will Rohl be remembered at Rangers?
Rohl is clearly trying to get his message across to his new players already.
The former Gers boss has already been spotted taking training in Austria, just after his exit was announced.
Daily Record reporter Andrew Newport shared an image and videos of the German already working away at Taxham training centre.
The Bears lacked the kind of football that Rohl talked about, especially in their first four matches after the split, when they threw away any chances of winning the Scottish Premiership title.
Perhaps, he would have brought in a different style had he stayed put and continued his rebuild, but we will never know what would have happened now.
Based on the evidence that we have, though, whether he would have been able to is questionable.
He will be remember as the man who turned around the disastrous Russell Martin era, but his side ultimately fell short of the ultimate redemption, and the style of football was not good enough.
