Rangers icon Graeme Souness believes Giovanni Van Bronckhorst is capable of sparking a fightback which leads to Scottish Premiership title glory.
The dark clouds are circling around Ibrox after a gloomy run before the World Cup break which leaves them nine points behind champions Celtic. But throw in the towel? Souness isn't having it, however, he is acutely aware results must change and victory over Ange Postecoglou's side on January 2 is a necessity. Van Bronckhorst appears set to get the chance to reverse his side's fortunes and the club icon insists the Dutchman must make sure he knows his dressing room inside out as he seeks a title comeback.
Speaking to BBC Scotland, he said: "Of course there's a way back. It's not a long way back, it's beating Celtic next time out. There are three Old Firm games - win those and it'd be a different picture. I am never comfortable talking about a manager losing their job. I know how tough it is to be a manager, I know how tough it is to manage in this city and Giovanni van Bronckhorst would have known that coming into it. Now is the time where he'll be finding out what he's got in his dressing room. Who motivates the motivator?
