Rangers Close Gap to Three Points Under Rohl’s Mid-Season Reset

Pragmatic tweaks—most notably a back three plus set-piece focus—restored belief at Ibrox.

Overview

  • Rangers are second in the Premiership, three points behind Hearts with one game more played, after a four-match winning run.
  • Danny Rohl, appointed in October to replace Russell Martin, has suffered only one defeat in 14 league games in charge.
  • Rohl prioritized results over style on arrival, switching to a back three to add a spare defender and stabilize the team.
  • His in-game flexibility has been pivotal, including a tactical change that helped turn a deficit at Celtic into a 3-1 win.
  • Confidence is rising despite injuries to Connor Barron and Dujon Sterling, with set-piece gains under coach Scott Fry, strong goalkeeping from Jack Butland, and expected additions Tuur Rommens and Tochi Chukwuani.
