Philippe Clement reveals Vaclav Cerny heart to heart as Rangers boss provides injury update on 4 Ibrox stars

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Philippe Clement revealed how heart-to-heart talks with dejected Vaclav Cerny helped the Rangers winger bounce back from his Lyon sitter to shoot down St Johnstone.The Czech ace was the Light Blues’ Europa League fall guy on Thursday night as he failed to take advantage of a gaping goal before Gers crashed 4-1 to the Ligue 1 gains.

But the on-loan Wolfsburg winger responded in the perfect manner as his brace gave Clement’s 10-man side - who had returning playmaker Ianis Hagi sent off 10 minutes from the end - a morale-boosting win.The Belgian said: “I’m really happy for Vaclav, because from the first moment he came into this club, he's been working really hard.

He was really down after Thursday, by missing that chance. He felt really responsible because he knew it was a really important moment in the beginning of the game.

If you score there, you have a totally different momentum and it can be a different game. He talked about that with me, and it was a really open and good talk.“But he didn't lose any of my confidence.
