Souttar!
Rangers player Souttar also spoke, commenting on the Premiership campaign: "This season, so far, I've made up for lost time with the games I've played and the minutes I've had on the pitch. When I look back on it in the summer, I hope it's a great finish and we'll do everything in the dressing room to make sure it's an unforgettable one for the rest of our lives. My full focus is on Rangers. It's very important for us, there are six or seven weeks to go, and everyone knows what's at stake. For me, my total focus is on every game. I know it's cliché, but it's very important that we go into every game with total concentration, belief in what we're doing and that we stick to what got us to this position. Maybe I'll look back when I'm older and think: "Yes, that was a great period in my career". Now I'm concentrating game by game and doing everything I can for this club."
Philippe Clement!
Rangers manager Philippe Clement spoke about the match and what he expects from Ross County: "Ross County are super motivated and want to do something special, so that's always the case, and we have respect for all opponents. They played a good game at Ibrox, and we know we need to play a really good game to get the three points, so we're focused on that now. We've had to change our plans, it's a different preparation, but that's no excuse for Sunday's game. If we need to change plans, we'll always adapt to the situation, but of course if I see things that aren't normal, I'll talk about it, but we'll always adapt to win games. We were preparing everything to get the three points, so our attention was focused on that. The situation became clear a few weeks earlier, and this has been a problem for a long time. For us, it's the second time the game has been postponed, and that's five games into the season. It's certainly not against the Dundee coach or the players, because they are also victims of this situation. I want to make that clear, because they're having a very good season and they're also frustrated. We just want to play, we have a very full schedule. There are a lot of things surrounding this as well, with all the fans coming from Wales, England, Northern Ireland and everywhere. This is very bad for the image of soccer in Scotland, and everyone needs to realize that. This needs to be avoided, that's why it's important to make the right decisions, and this can't happen anymore."
