That's why I think Rangers fans are in for a bit of a shock. They are all under the impression that he's going to bring an intense pressing game, when in fact his teams do anything but. 

I was reading some of their fans' comments after their 1-1 draw in a preseason match Vs Barnsley last week. No prizes for guessing that the goal they conceded was due to the keeper attempting to play out from the back in a dangerous situation. Amusing to see a spate of fan comments along the lines of "at least we're getting those kind of mistakes out of our system before the season starts"....

Rangers will be ok whoever the manager is.

But my personal view is that they may well sack RM by Xmas if he’s not started well! They are not a project or a potential team - they are RANGERS and Rangers fans are not Saints fans… 

The level of opposition and the quality of their squad vs the rest means he’s got a similar situation to when he took Saints up in his hands. He  should  do ok given enough time - but in this case though it’s certain Rangers fans will only want the title-runners up won’t do- so if they drop cheap points early doors and lose a derby his job is in jeopardy. I’d make him favourite for first sacking in Scotland myself.
