Wright Enjoying The Growing Synergy

SCOTT WRIGHT says he's enjoying the growing synergy between the Rangers players and supporters.

 Ibrox was a cacophony of noise in midweek as the Gers made it five wins in succession since returning from the winter break with a 2-1 triumph over Aberdeen on league duty.

The side will now shift their attention towards tomorrow evening's Scottish Cup clash with Ayr United in Govan, with Philippe Clement's team looking to seal their place in the last eight of the competition.

Speaking to the media to preview the Fifth Round fixture, Wright commented: "The boss has touched on it; the synergy between the team and the fans is in a really good place.

"Our fans will be right up for the game as well; they know how important it is for us to have them behind us. 

"We have a little bit of momentum just now throughout the club, so we're looking forward to every game.

"The manager came in and, as he said at the start, he couldn't do much with us on the training pitch because there was a game every three days.

"The break in La Manga was great for us as well, and he was able to implement some of his ideas and style. 

"It's a sake of us trying to get those building blocks in place and take it step-by-step.

"We just want to keep taking the right steps, which you can see we're doing at the minute.

"The building blocks are in place, and it's a sake of moving one step at a time."

Competition for places is continuing to grow in the Rangers squad following the January additions of Fabio Silva, Mohamed Diomande and Oscar Cortes.

Wright has found himself battling for a place with Academy graduate Ross McCausland in recent months, although the winger insists that it will only serve to benefit the side.

He added: "Ross has been fantastic. You can see what the manager is trying to build in every position in the team: if someone gets injured or there’s a drop in form, he wants another player to come in and hit the ground running. 

"He's obviously got a few goals and assists as well, which is great for him. 

"It's no different whether it's an Academy player coming through or one that we've signed.

"There's always pressure when you play at this club. You need to win every game. 

"The game at the weekend will be no different. All we can do is go in with a positive mindset and make sure we do our part."
