Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers haven’t won more than two games in a row this season.
Speaking to Rangers TV, Kenny Miller has berated the Gers’ lack of consistency this season and says the fact that they haven’t won three games in a row is simply “horrendous”.
Rangers looked set to pick up a third successive victory when mid-table Hamilton visited Ibrox on Saturday, but a shock 2-0 defeat means that the Blues are still taking one step forward and two back since Graeme Murty replaced Pedro Caixinha in a caretaker role.
Under Murty, the Gers had scored six in their previous two Premiership games prior to Saturday’s debacle, in which the hosts – and Alfredo Morelos to be specific – were guilty of missing a number of goalscoring chances.
Nevertheless, Miller, enjoying a new lease of life under the 43-year-old, says that winning three on the spin would’ve been meaningless in any case, stressing that Rangers need to be putting together eight-match winning streaks if they want even a modicum of success this season.
“It is a horrendous stat that we haven’t won three in a row; it is a damning statistic against the team that we have not put a run of consistency together”, the veteran striker told Rangers TV.
“Had we won today we wouldn’t have achieved anything, it would have been a monkey off our back but that’s all.
“I said all along that if we want to have any success over the course of the season then three wins is not enough, it needs to be six, seven or eight.”
The Ibrox side, who sit three points behind second-placed Aberdeen and nine adrift of Celtic, had twice won two in a row this season under Caixinha but, as Miller strongly points out, it’s nowhere near good enough.
