I've given myself a Pep talk

Clement takes inspiration from Man City Netflix doc as he watches Guardiola lift Treble after surviving shock defeats on the way

- FRASER WILSON

PHILIPPE CLEMENT has spent the little down time he's had recently tuning in to the Manchester City documentary 'Together: Treble Winners'.

It's a title he would love nothing more than to emblazon Rangers' season review when it finally hits the production line in the next couple of months.

But the Ibrox manager is far too wise to get involved in any of that talk just now especially after Sunday's video nasty in Dingwall.

Clement's interest in the Netflix series is less in the conclusion everyone knows that anyway- but far more in the detail that got Pep Guardiola's megabucks side over the line in the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.

Not surprisingly, when the Belgian raised the subject with the media yesterday he was keen to highlight the rough moments and shock defeats that arguably the best manager currently operating in the planet and his superstar players suffered along the way.

The anger on the inside, the criticism from the outside and ultimately the ability to lift themselves off the canvas and get back in the fight almost instantly were points of particular relevance to Clement this week.

Basically, if it can happen to Guardiola, Haaland and Co then it can happen to anyone.

The aftermath of Sunday's unexpected defeat at Ross County is still raw for Ibrox punters who fear the title initiative has swung back in Celtic's favour ahead of tonight's trip to Dundee.
