Nico Raskin talks up Rangers positivity power that is well overdue as the effect of missing emotions on squad revealed

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Nico Raskin reckons the team that cheers together redeems together.And Rangers’ Belgian ace is hoping the power of positive thinking can provide the embattled Ibrox outfit with the spark they need to kick-start their stuttering season.

There’s not been much for Gers to celebrate this term. But they made a point of putting on a show of togetherness as they picked up a much needed win in Paisley on Sunday.Responding to caretaker boss Steven Davis’ appeal for a show of unity amongst the ranks, skipper James Tavernier pulled his team-mates together as they lapped up the penalty he’d just slotted to put them in front against St Mirren.

There were more happy huddles as Abdallah Sima and Tavernier again wrapped up a morale-boosting 3-0 victory at the SMISA. Now Raskin says it’s time to turn frowns upside down and really give the Rangers support something to smile about.“We need to feel that kind of emotion together,” he said after a win that moved the Light Blues above the Buddies into second place on goal difference. "We’ve maybe missed a bit of that emotion after goals and celebrating our wins.

That’s important because we know how vital every single win is to achieve our goal. That’s something we’ve spoken about. It’s about trying to be more positive about every single goal, every single win, every single point — because that is how you move forward and achieve the things you want to do.“That’s so important because when you are in a hard period, you need to be super positive to get yourself out of that situation.
