Rangers manager Steven Gerrard thinks there has been definite signs of improvement this season at Ibrox. The Gers have gained 10 more points this season compared to last season, after the same number of games.
Rangers head to St Johnstone on Sunday afternoon, with Gerrard hoping to close the gap on Celtic at the top of the table.
Neil Lennon’s side are currently 10 points ahead of Rangers in the title race, although the Gers have a game in hand.
Despite the points difference, Gerrard has still admitted that he’s pleased with the club’s progress.
But, he won’t be fully satisfied until further improvement is made.
