Rangers have to start this next block of fixtures as they mean to go on and Philippe Clement will want to push his team on to the next level of domestic performance.
There has been a steady improvement from his squad, other than the nervy affair against Hearts at Ibrox, most of the games have been comfortable with few moments of panic in defence.
It is at the other end where there are still tweaks to be made but with Rangers nearing a fully fit squad, Philippe Clement can pick a more clinical line-up than fans have seen for some time.
Rangers have attacking duo Philippe Clement must pair
Between the two international breaks, the Gers boss managed to find out who he could trust to start and who might become reliable back-ups.
There was an upturn in form for the much-maligned pair of Sam Lammers and Cyriel Dessers but their overall play was still frustrating.
In Danilo, Rangers have their number nine and a striker that Philippe Clement can build his attack around but there are two key positions up for grabs.
Number ten and right wing.
With Rabbi Matondo not yet fully fit, the combination that ticks the most boxes involves playing two players who have barely played together but who could be key to success this season.
In fact, Tom Lawrence and Todd Cantwell have played just 14 minutes together in the Scottish Premiership.
Both players are perfect for Rangers and what Philippe Clement is trying to achieve at the club in that they have exactly the mentality he is looking for.
They play with their heads up facing forwards and want to contribute at the sharp end of the pitch whilst also being willing to do the hard graft out of possession too.
As we’ve found with his goal against Sparta Prague and his overall performance, Cantwell is more than capable of starting off the right-hand side and cutting in onto his left foot, so is Tom Lawrence.
They are both good dribblers and can link play or assist teammates and it is this creativity that Philippe Clement will want to see when Rangers return to action.
After two weeks on the training ground together, hopefully, the gaffer names a line-up that is as attack minded as it is hard working to right the wrongs of the display that saw Michael Beale sacked.
