Derek McInnes targets three domestic trophies for Rangers after early season struggles
Summary

Rangers manager Derek McInnes held a private meeting with his squad to refocus on domestic competitions following an early exit from European qualification. After a difficult start to the league campaign involving a draw and a defeat, the team has secured three consecutive narrow victories against Aberdeen, Falkirk, and Motherwell. Defender Emmanuel Fernandez stated that the group has improved its togetherness and remains focused on pursuing the remaining three available trophies. The club currently sits in fourth place in the Premiership as they prepare for a match against third-placed St Mirren. This upcoming stretch includes the St Mirren fixture followed by two meetings with Celtic, including a Premier Sports Cup quarter-final and a league match at Celtic Park. McInnes faces pressure to establish a more stable defensive shape and improved attacking execution to sustain the current momentum.
