Gers set for Matic 2.0 to be key for Clement in title charge

The arrivals of Todd Cantwell and Nicolas Raskin,

two players hired to provide new energy to the midfield,

were eagerly awaited by Rangers supporters this time last season.

The two of them missing extended stretches of time this season has been a problem,

but they brought a newfound excitement and energy to the team.

Ibrox witnessed Nicolas Raskin return before the winter break,

and his performance from the previous campaign indicates that

he wasn’t the driving force behind his Rangers colleagues’ success before his injury.

Rangers’ comeback for Nicolas Raskin gives Philippe Clement more momentum

The 22-year-old midfield dynamo was ecstatic to be back on the pitch,

and Philippe Clement praised his will to recover:

Nicolas Raskin compares highly to some of the best midfield players in the world,

especially Nemanja Matic, according to DataMB’s comparison model.

The Rangers star may not have been at full strength early in the season,

but he wasn’t exactly surrounded by talent either.

According to Adam Thornton, resident analyst at Heart and Hand, this graph compares him to other midfield players in the top seven leagues, but he has still made a significant impact.

He may not be firing on all cylinders, but statistically speaking, he outperforms every midfielder in the Scottish Premiership.

Energy and intensity are two essential elements of Philippe Clement’s ideology.

This involves more than just sprinting around; it also entails moving the ball swiftly and accurately.

All things that Nicolas Raskin performs for Rangers either by passing the ball or driving out of defence.

It is preferable if Clement has access to more players of high calibre.

When Raskin returns to the pitch, he’ll be a different player than he was against Kilmarnock at Ibrox, eager to add more trophies to the thrill of his first signing.
