Manager Praises Another Strong Preseason Performance

GIOVANNI van Bronckhorst praised his Rangers squad after another strong pre-season performance against West Ham this evening at a sunny Ibrox.

The Rangers boss expressed his delight to gain another positive pre-season friendly ahead of the league commencing next weekend.

Speaking exclusively to RangersTV following a strong win against the Premier League side, he said: “It was very positive, we were playing against a Premier League side who finished seventh and almost reached the final of the Europa League.

Van Bronckhorst outlined his happiness with several new signings making an impact in this evening’s winning match against David Moyes’ side and insisted that it provided an excellent opportunity for his squad to get more minutes under their belt.

He continued: “We’re getting stronger, and our physical levels are getting up, we put in some fresh faces tonight with players who need minutes as well.

“They came in the last ten days, and we have a very good team with good characters, we lost some players from last year but I’m really happy that we could get new players in so early.

"The team is very welcoming, once you sign you are one of the family and we keep working towards our goal this season.”

Rangers will welcome Tottenham to Ibrox on Saturday for another pre-season friendly before facing Queen’s Park at Auchenhowie for an additional opportunity to test the players before the season begins next week.

He added: “They’re a quality side [Tottenham], they play Champions League next season and are a strong side with quality international players.

"It’s a good test for us and a good challenge to play against Tottenham before we get into the league next week.

"We have a game against Queen’s Park on Sunday, so my players can get more minutes before we start.”
