Philippe Clement reacts to Rangers mentality claim from Neil Lennon insisting Celtic hero has HELPED him
Lennon claimed Gers don’t have the mindset to topple Celtic
Philippe Clement has responded to Neil Lennon’s claim his Rangers team don’t have the mentality to topple Celtic – and thanked him for motivating his players.
The former Hoops captain and manager claimed the Light Blues have yet to prove they have the mettle to overthrow their rivals who have dominated Scottish football over the past 12 years, barring the one season Gers won the Premiership under Steven Gerrard. The Ibrox side have already won the Viaplay Cup this season and are eight points behind in the title race with two games in hand.
But Lennon questioned their mentality and suggested the Belgian would need to add players with a strong mindset in order to fight back in the battle for supremacy. Clement was asked about the comments in his press conference today and responded.

Lennon has yesterday told PLZ Soccer: “They still haven’t got that mentality yet of squashing that hold that Celtic have over them and they need to break that if they’re going to win the league.
“And to do that they need to bring in either players of better quality or better mentality.”

Asked if that would mean bringing in another striker, Lennon added: “I think they need a bit more creativity in midfield as well, more goals from midfield. And they need a bit more power in the team.”
