  • Manager hailed for rejuvenating the club’s fortunes

Rangers’ captain James Tavernier has praised Danny Rohl for steadying the ship at Rangers in a new interview.

The club captain, whose contract expires at the end of the season, also commended the “calmness” that Rohl has imparted on the squad since he arrived.

Tavernier’s comments come as the Gers prepare for the visit of Motherwell to Ibrox in the first of five crucial post-split matches.

Tavernier’s comments reiterates Danny Rohl’s impact

If Rangers do lift the Scottish Premiership trophy it will be the biggest achievement of Rohl’s short managerial career to date.

However, even if that is the case and he leads the Gers to silverware, it would be amiss to forget how he pulled off what would be a masterstroke.

And just how Tavernier described it, if Rangers win the league, it will be because he has steadied the ship.

When you take a step back and look at the context, it is credit to the German how he has repaired the sinking ship that was Rangers and transformed it into a vessel ready to fight for the Premiership title.

Having said that, even if the Gers do fall short of their title bid, the impact that Rohl has had on the club in his months-long reign should be enough to reassure that the club is in safe hands.

The word used to describe Rohl that tells you all you need to know

Another part that sticks out about the captain’s interview is the use of the word “calmness”.

That description of Rohl is all to familiar after Nico Raskin also praised the manager’s calm state.

The fact that not one but two members of the squad have mentioned that specific skill that the German possesses helps provide an insight into the man in the dugout and who is spearheading this title charge.

And that man is someone whose natural composure and positive mindset is clearly resonating with the dressing room at a crucial part of the season.

It tells you everything you need to know about Danny Rohl and it is no secret how much the players are enjoying working under the German.

The words used to describe Danny Rohl by his captain are not news to those who follow Rangers and Scottish football.

But what they do is emphasise how it is not just the tactics that have rejuvenated the club but Rohl’s much applauded man-management.

The fact that Raskin has reiterated the same comments shows that league title or not, the biggest achievement under Rohl is the culture that he is building at Ibrox for hopefully years to come.
