‘Them’ – Ibrox Midfielder Raskin Discredits Celtic Ahead of Semi-Final

NICO Raskin claims that The Rangers are not far off Celtic, despite failing to beat the side so far this year.

The January signing didn’t start the League Cup final, but started at Celtic Park where he was supposed to make a difference, but he failed to.

The 22yearold midfielder believes that the Ibrox outfit have cut the gap on their rivals despite the points margin growing at the weekend, even though Celtic dropped two points!

“It’s very important for two reasons. Rangers we need to win something for the season and it is our last chance, we also want to win against them,” said Raskin.

“The last game we lost but we have another feeling, we are not that far from them.

“We had some chances, okay, they won, so now we focus even more on ourselves, and we go with a strong team and mentality, and go for it.”

At least Raskin knows that Celtic won the game at Parkhead, unlike his fellow January signing Todd Cantwell.

If Celtic wins this match, and The Rangers go trophyless, it will be a disaster and pressure will mount on Beale, despite only being in the job for six months.
