David Edgar has chastised Philippe Clement for making substitutions too late during Sunday’s (April 14) Rangers loss to Ross County.

The presenter of the Heart and Hand Podcast tweeted on Sunday, calling the Gers manager’s assertion that the Belgian must “take responsibility” for the team’s 3-2 loss “pathetic.”

The Light Blues led 1-0 at the break, but County’s second-half comeback made sure they severely damaged Clement’s team’s hopes of taking home the championship in Dingwall.

“Again, pathetic,” murmured Edgar. “Manager needs to own up to this; it’s too late to make changes.”

When Rangers manager Philippe Clement faced Ross County, he made a mistake.
Rangers had the lead heading into the half, but despite this, the first half was rather dismal, so perhaps Clement made a mistake by not making any changes before halftime.

The Gers manager was clearly unhappy with their performance as they were back out on the pitch early, suggesting he had some choice words with them at the break.

Some will suggest the Belgian got his team selection wrong in the first place, having made four changes to the side that drew 3-3 with Celtic.
It would be disappointing if the Light Blues did not win the Scottish Premiership trophy because they were in command of the game only a few weeks ago, even though Clement has received a lot of acclaim for leading the team back into the title fight.

They still have a chance to win the season and turn things around if they win their remaining games, but after this devastating loss, it will be much harder.
