Rangers manager Mark Warburton has insisted that his squad has a great harmony in quotes published by the Daily Mail.

Warburton believes that the togetherness of his squad was one of the key reasons why Rangers won promotion back to the top tier of Scottish football last season.

He stressed that along with his coaching staff he can build strong foundations during his time at the club.

He insisted, via the Mail: “There is a unity and there has to be. That was one of our strengths last year. You won’t win anything by just accepting average. What we have to do is keep getting better and better.

“The fact of the matter is we are building and after where the club has been in the last four, five years, we have to build strong foundations.

“We are gelling in a number of new players, players are getting fitness levels back and are understanding how we play.”

Rangers host Celtic on Sunday in the Scottish League Cup semi-final and will be hoping for a better result than when the two sides met in the league earlier in the campaign.

Celtic thrashed Rangers 5-1 at home back in September as Moussa Dembele hit a hat-trick and Warburton’s side will be out to set the record straight when they meet at Ibrox.

Scottish giants Rangers won the Scottish Championship during Warburton’s first year at the club, finishing 11 points ahead of second-placed Falkirk.
