Rangers captain James Tavernier echoed the sentiment of his manager in believing his side deserved more than just a point from what was a special Europa League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur at Ibrox.
Tavernier provided the assist for Hamza Igamane's opener, which was his 16th direct goal involvement in the competition.
Rangers held their own and could've won it through Cyriel Dessers after Dejan Kulusevski finished off a well-worked move from the visitors to equalise late on.
The Light Blues are on 11 points from their opening six league phase matches and currently occupy eighth position. Should they hold onto that over the next two fixtures then Philippe Clement's men would earn automatic qualification to the Europa League last-16.
"Yeah, well we've gone in there [the dressing room] disappointed that we've not come away with three points," he told TNT Sports.
"We had the chances to probably finish off the game. Obviously Tottenham have got great quality, so the one moment when we probably left our positions, we got punished for it.
"We will take a point and it puts us in a good position.
"There's been small tweaks over the past couple of weeks in the way we are playing, a lot of lads are really in form and we are putting in the performances.
"I said yesterday that it was important that we kept the consistency in our performances, and I felt like we did that tonight."

Asked if he felt that Spurs were vulnerable, with Igamane scoring to put Rangers in front just minutes after the half-time break, Tavernier replied: "We obviously got shown clips of them and that was a weakness that we seen.
"When they are attacking they put numbers up. So, it was important for us to get them on the transition and create chances, and I felt like we did that.
"I love this competition playing against the best teams in Europe. That's what you want to do as a player and obviously I thrive on it. The team does, you see the fans, they obviously thrive off this competition. It's a great competition to play in."
"I think Rangers played very well, we struggled a bit," he said. "It ends 1-1, it is what it is. We didn't play well enough to win the game.
"I think Rangers played a perfect game, it's a beautiful stadium, the fans helped them a lot. We missed a bit in the first half, the second half was a little bit better.
"I wanted to change something, to make something happen and I succeeded once but it was not enough today.
“It's always important to score but we've got to start winning games now. We haven't won in a couple of weeks, so it's time to win on Sunday. I think everybody needs to do a little more than we're doing now."
