James McFadden has communicated with Rangers manager Philippe Clement following his remarks regarding Celtic and Tottenham Hotspur.

Celtic and Rangers both achieved victories in the Scottish Premiership, thereby positioning themselves favorably for their forthcoming significant European matches, in addition to the League Cup final scheduled for next Sunday.

Celtic secured a decisive victory over Hibernian, winning 3-0, prior to their upcoming journey to Croatia for their next Champions League match against Dinamo Zagreb.

Rangers secured a victory against Ross County in Dingwall prior to their upcoming match against Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League.

Subsequently, it is the significant event. The League Cup final at Hampden will feature a contest between Celtic and Rangers, both vying for the inaugural trophy of the season.

With Rangers experiencing an improvement in their performance and Celtic demonstrating unwavering dominance in domestic competitions,

the forthcoming match appears poised to be a compelling contest between the Glasgow clubs, with both teams harboring confidence in their prospects of securing the trophy.

Unless one is Philippe Clement, the manager of the Rangers, it appears. Philippe Clement remarks on the disparity in competitiveness between Celtic and Tottenham Hotspur, describing them as being “beyond our reach.”

When questioned regarding the implications of the victory over Ross County for Rangers’ forthcoming matches against Tottenham Hotspur and Celtic, Clement made an unusual remark to the Sky Sports interviewer. Clement stated, “Certainly, these are entirely distinct types of games.”

“It may be more appropriate to state that, financially, the two games are beyond our means.”

However, we are prepared to engage in competition in this manner, and it presents a commendable challenge for our team to demonstrate our capabilities in these matches and to showcase our performance against such opponents.

That is a significant acknowledgment, and it is improbable that it will be well-received by the Rangers supporters in anticipation of two of their most critical matches of the season.

James McFadden advises the manager of Rangers to refrain from making justifications following his remarks regarding Celtic and Tottenham Hotspur.

Sky Sports analyst James McFadden, expressing his dissatisfaction, conveyed a firm message to the Rangers manager, urging him to refrain from making excuses in anticipation of the significant matches against Tottenham and Celtic.

McFadden conveyed to Sky Sports, “The mere opportunity you are affording them to contend for the cup is attributable to their recent resurgence in form, as they are achieving a commendable level of consistency.”

The preparations for the 3:30 PM Hamped kick-off have officially commenced, despite the significant European fixtures that must be addressed prior to that time.

Although the outcomes of UEFA’s competitions may not hold significance when Sunday arrives, a favorable result in Europe will adequately prepare Celtic for the match against Rangers.

Brendan Rodgers’ team enters the match as the favored contender to secure the trophy, as the Celtic manager has maintained an unblemished record against Rangers during his two tenures at Parkhead.
