Clement under 'sever pressure' at Rangers - McCormack

Former Rangers striker Ross McCormack thinks Philippe Clement is under "severe pressure" at Ibrox.

The Glasgow club came from behind to snatch a point in a 2-2 draw with Motherwell at Fir Park but are 14 points adrift of league leaders Celtic as they prepare for the Old Firm derby on Thursday 2 January.

"I think he's under severe pressure to be honest with you," McCormack told the BBC's Scottish Football Podcast.

"I look at it and probably say that he's lucky about two things. It's the Old Firm game next, if it wasn't I think they could have made a change after the Motherwell game but I don't think you can do that before an Old Firm game - too much havoc would be caused.

"Also I think, and Rangers fans won't agree with it, but the difference in coming back from 2-0 down and getting 2-2, you can get a lot more positives out of that than you can if you got beat."
