Erik ten Hag signing who didn't play a minute for Man United 'hung our to dry' by manager

Rangers fans have been left puzzled by manager Philippe Clement's post-match remarks on former Manchester United man Jack Butland's performance against Kilmarnock. The Light Blues had a disappointing day, failing to take advantage of Aberdeen and Celtic's draw on Saturday - their loss to Kilmarnock meant they fell further behind in the Scottish Premiership race than they were at the start of the weekend.

Rugby Park has always been a challenging venue for Rangers, but the lacklustre 1-0 defeat has ignited anger among the Ibrox supporters. In a post-match interview with Sky Sports, Clement was questioned about why they struggled against Derek McInnes' team - and he pointed the finger at goalkeeper Butland for Marley Watkins' late winning goal.

The Belgian stated: "It's about details. It's about your right full-back at that moment, too late reacting to push forward with your defensive line and because of that, the player was not offside.

"So, yeah, those are details, but important details. And then we can react also better. Jack Butland is a little bit in no-man's land in that moment. Small details with new players also. So we need to learn out of that, but we need to play better than we did today. That's also clear."

A recent nod to Butland has led some supporters to sense tension at Ibrox with whispers of unrest following the goalkeeper's pointed remarks after a heavy defeat by Lyon in the Europa League. His suggestion for the need of a "different approach" struck a chord with fans as a jab at management, reports the Daily Record.
