Shock Rangers XI Revealed for St Mirren Clash: Bailey Rice Gets the Nod in Bold Attacking Overhaul

April 26, 2025 RAYMOND 0

With only five matches left and a manager set to depart, Rangers face a difficult end to the season. Motivation has been a struggle for the squad, and while pride is on the line, stringing together victories may only highlight the painful gap to Celtic, who remain comfortably ahead.

First up is a challenging trip to St Mirren, who have already beaten Rangers twice this season. Despite little left to play for in terms of European qualification, Stephen Robinson’s side is never an easy opponent, and a bruising encounter is expected.

Changes to the starting XI are anticipated. Jack Butland should return to goal to rebuild his confidence, while the 3-5-2 formation might be scrapped due to limited options in the full-back positions. In midfield, Bailey Rice deserves a run of games, alongside Nicolas Raskin and Mohamed Diomande. Up front, Vaclav Cerny should retain his spot, with Oscar Cortes given a chance to rediscover his form on the left. The decision between Hamza Igamane and Danilo for the central striker role is crucial, with Igamane showing promise as the season’s standout forward.

Ferguson Revolution: Rangers on the Brink of Securing ‘One of the Best Managers in the World’ – Is This the Game-Changer They’ve Been Waiting For?

Barry Ferguson’s time at Rangers seems to be coming to an end, with speculation already turning to who might replace him in the summer. After a disappointing exit from the Europa League, Rangers have little to play for in the final fixtures of the season, as they are comfortably secure in second place, 15 points behind Celtic. The club is now focusing on the future, with the potential for one of football’s most successful managers to take charge when the new campaign begins in late July.

Meanwhile, Rangers are in “productive conversations” with an American consortium led by Paraag Marathe, aiming to inject much-needed capital into the club. With losses of £17.2m last year, investment is essential for the club’s long-term stability. Alongside this, the club has appointed Kevin Thelwell as head of football operations, signaling that behind-the-scenes changes are already underway. As part of this shift, there are growing rumors that José Mourinho could be in line to become the next Rangers manager. With a track record that includes multiple Champions League titles and league victories across four countries, Mourinho’s appointment would mark a major statement of intent from the new owners, offering Rangers the chance to elevate themselves to the next level.

Alan Brazil Erupts in Fury Over Shocking Revelation About New Rangers Manager on talkSPORT!

Rangers fans remain in suspense as they await news on who will manage the team for the 2025-26 Scottish Premiership season. With the highly anticipated US takeover expected to be finalized by summer, the incoming ownership is likely to have their own candidates in mind to succeed Philippe Clement. In the meantime, Barry Ferguson continues to lead the team, having guided them to the Europa League quarter-finals as interim manager.

On talkSPORT, Alan Brazil dismissed the suggestion of Jose Mourinho taking over at Ibrox, defending Ferguson’s efforts and calling for him to be given the job full-time. While Mourinho’s potential departure from Fenerbahce has been widely discussed, Brazil questioned the practicality of bringing him to Rangers, especially with the financial considerations of a new ownership group.

As fans shift their focus to the US takeover, hopes are high that a new manager will be appointed before pre-season begins. With Kevin Thelwell already confirmed as the new sporting director, significant changes—both on and off the pitch—are expected in the coming months.

Barry Ferguson’s chances of securing the Rangers job on a permanent basis took a hit after the team’s 2-0 aggregate loss to Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League quarter-finals. With European hopes dashed, Rangers are left with five largely meaningless Premiership matches, except for the upcoming Celtic clash. Despite the situation, Ferguson remains determined, seeing these remaining fixtures as a final opportunity to make his case for the role.

Derek Ferguson, his brother, believes there’s still a “50-50” chance for Barry to be appointed as manager. In an exclusive interview, Derek urged the Rangers board to seriously consider Barry’s no-nonsense approach and the positive impact he’s had on both the players and fans. Derek also highlighted Barry’s ability to bring in experienced staff, further solidifying his position as a serious contender for the job. With the season winding down, Barry’s goal now is to secure six wins from the final matches, a feat that could make it difficult for the board to look elsewhere.
