When Michael Beale took over from Giovanni van Bronckhorst at Rangers it appeared like there was plenty of work to do.
The Light Blues were struggling for form and Celtic were in cruise control as they moved towards retaining the Scottish Premiership title. But while Ange Postecoglou's relentless side still hold their nine-point advantage at the top, the signs of improvement are there for fans to see. An unbeaten run since the Londoner stepped into the Ibrox hot seat, they have a Viaplay Cup final to look forward to later this month and could deny Celtic their Treble dream.
The squad also looked like it needed a boost in January, and sporting director Ross Wilson has obliged with the additions of Todd Cantwell from Norwich City and Standard Liege midfielder Nicolas Raskin. The rebuild of the squad has started and Beale has admitted any deals that have not got over the line will be pushed to the summer – noting that he hopes to add a centre-back and striker.
