Stewart raised an eyebrow at Philippe Clement's positive assessment of Rangers' performance but it might not be all as it seems.
Philippe Clement's glowing assessment of Rangers' performance against Hearts is fine - as long as he's not saying the same in the dressing room.
They'd conceded to Lawrence Shankland's early header and a missed Tavernier penalty before his successful effort hinted it wasn't going to be their day. It was by no means a fluid Rangers performance but a stunning late show made it two league wins from two for Clement, who said it was a deserved three points. That led to Stewart saying on Sportscene that he was 'astonished' by the new boss' view on things.
He said on BBC Sportsound: "I can see where Clement's coming from in a certain respect. He’s a new manager, he’s just in the door. We don’t know what he says in the dressing room, so in there he could be telling them, ‘Look, we’ve won the game but it needs to be better, we need to move the ball quicker, play at a higher tempo.'. But he comes out in the press and he’s positive and he’s behind his players, and he says full credit to them. I like that.
“That’s the one that we’re not party do, we don’t hear, but he comes out and he speaks well and he’s confident and happy with what he got from his players in terms of the reaction. They weren’t really up against anything apart from the goal that they conceded, but I don’t mind his comments.
