Four Rangers players, according to Kris Boyd, have the ability to harm Celtic as their confidence soars following their crushing of Ross County.
The weekend at Hampden saw the Gers settle into a groove and produce what was arguably their most convincing performance of the season, putting six past the Highlanders without answering.
With two assists and two goals, Rabbi Matondo was excellent. Cyriel Dessers added a brace to bring her campaign total to five.
With such a performance under their belts going into this weekend’s Old Firm derby, it was the ideal time. Boyd, the former hero of Ibrox, is aware that his former team will face challenges at Parkhead, but he believes that the confidence some of their attacking players now possess will be beneficial.
“You look at Rangers going across the city in recent times, they’ve struggled,” he said to Sky Sports. It is something that cannot be avoided. They also need to figure out how to start seeing results.
Celtic has had an incredible start to the season. Rangers’ performance over the weekend was likely their best of the year. But Rangers’ record against Celtic in head-to-head play has been inadequate. If they wish to become better, they will have to deal with it.
Without a doubt, their performance on Saturday will boost their confidence and belief. Take a look at Rabbi Matondo; he’s been connected to a relocation.
He entered and scored a few goals, followed by Cyriel Dessers who scored a few more, Danilo who scored one, and Tom Lawrence who broke free from the midfielder to score.
Thus, there is confidence. However, Ross County was extremely impoverished throughout the weekend.
While I hope they are, I don’t think Celtic will be that impoverished. From Rangers’ perspective, I believe they should just try to annoy Celtic right away and see where that gets them.
We’ve seen it happen before when the underdog team goes on to annoy someone and steal a goal. I believe the Rangers are currently there.”
