Exit-bound Rangers star Scott Wright looks set to be handed a Philippe Clement tactical reprieve at Ibrox.
The former Aberdeen winger started the weekend’s 4-0 win over Hibernian as Belgian boss Philippe Clement kickstarted his Ibrox tenure with a bang.
Scott Wright would’ve even likely finished the match too had it not been for his stuttering fitness, as revealed by Philippe Clement after the match.
The fact that Scott Wright was called on in the game gives an inclination into a subtle tweak of tactical style with Rangers’ lack of natural width a major boost to the 26-year-old.
Rangers have lost the likes of Ryan Kent and Fashion Sakala in the summer and as a result much of the squad’s natural pace and width has gone with them.
Rangers’ distinct lack of wide options means the likes of young Ross McCausland – currently in contract negotiations with the club – has been called upon from the bench.
With Rangers’ homegrown quota also pointing to a sizeable squad imbalance, Scott Wright’s position as both a winger and as someone trained in Scotland massively works in his favour as Philippe Clement takes over.
