Is 'bitty' Pittodrie win turning point for McInnes and Rangers?
Until Sunday's trip north to Aberdeen, Derek McInnes had not really enjoyed watching his Rangers team. That changed after an unconvincing win at Pittodrie.
On Sunday, Derek McInnes led his Rangers team to a Scottish Premiership victory over Aberdeen, marking a change from recent unconvincing displays. The win, secured by Lawrence Shankland's second-half penalty, provided McInnes with a sense of relief and enjoyment, contrasting his previous feelings of distress. Despite the result, McInnes acknowledged the team needed to improve, emphasizing that they needed to compete and bring quality in each match.
Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton, however, described the performance as "bitty" and questioned whether this could be a turning point for McInnes. The Rangers boss, however, remained focused on the importance of securing the win, stating that getting three points was the most crucial aspect. McInnes also praised the debut performance of 20-year-old South Korean Kim Min-su, who impressed with his quality and is expected to be a valuable addition to the team.
Despite some criticism regarding the club's recruitment strategy, McInnes expressed optimism about the potential impact of other signings, particularly in midfield where the team is currently lacking creativity.
