Philippe Clement has hailed the speed with which his Rangers team have improved during his short tenure as boss.
Last month the Belgian took over from Michael Beale, who departed after the Light Blues — already knocked out of the Champions League qualifiers and beaten at home by Celtic — heard the sound of boos yet again after they had lost 3-1 to Aberdeen at Ibrox.
Under Clement, Rangers are six games unbeaten — collecting five wins and a draw — and the 2-1 Europa League win over Sparta Prague on Thursday means a home victory over Aris Limassol later this month will secure progression to the knockout round play-off, with a trip to Group C leaders Real Betis still to go and top spot still achievable.
The former Genk, Club Brugge and Monaco manager is happy with progress at Ibrox so far, ahead of the Scottish Premiership game against Livingston in West Lothian on Sunday.
«It is not yet that the team knows what to do in each situation, we are still working on that but that is normal, it is three and a half weeks, really short,» said Clement, who confirmed young forward Ross McCausland is «in talks» about a new contract.
«But it is important that they start to learn what to do as a team against every formation and they are getting better and better at that.
»Everything becomes faster, smoother, because it becomes more natural.
