Then I think it will be tough to stop us.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The key is that we go into the international break with the three points, and then we have two more games and then we go into the split.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Time is running out, less games to go, and for us it&#8217;s about winning games.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>&#8216;Fantastic&#8217; to see Curtis get Scotland call<\/h3>\n<div data-testid=\"article-image\">\n<figure>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" intrinsicsize=\"768x432\" src=\"https:\/\/e0.365dm.com\/26\/03\/768x432\/skysports-curtis-findlay-kilmarnock_7194627.jpg?20260316163048\"   alt=\"Findlay Curtis has impressed in his six loan appearances at Kilmarnock from Rangers\" data-testid=\"article-image-image\">\n    <\/p><figcaption data-testid=\"article-image-caption\">\n        <span>Image:<\/span><br \/>\n        <span data-testid=\"article-image-caption-text\">Findlay Curtis has impressed in his six loan appearances since joining Kilmarnock from Rangers<br \/>\n        <\/span><br \/>\n      <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>R\u00f6hl was pleased to see Findlay Curtis get his first call-up by Scotland.<\/p>\n<p>The 19-year-old winger, on loan at Kilmarnock, is the only uncapped player in Steve Clarke&#8217;s squad for friendlies against Japan and the Ivory Coast after impressing in six loan games with Killie.<\/p>\n<p>R\u00f6hl said: &#8220;I was really happy, I sent him a message. A big congratulations to him. I think it&#8217;s a huge step.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And for me, the plan was he got his game minutes. He got game minutes and now he could make the step up in the national squad.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is fantastic. I think he is playing in different positions, that helps as well. And our goal was that we bring Findlay back in the summer and we get a better player.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And all these things go in the right direction. I&#8217;m not sure if this is possible (at Rangers) when you have five, six, seven players in the same position. And that was the reason why we made the decision.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m really pleased with this development. I follow him, we follow him as a club, and he helps us as well with good performances and with good results.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>R\u00f6hl has doubts over Andreas Skov Olsen and Mikey Moore for the Aberdeen clash but is hoping Mohamed Diomande will be fit while confident that Tuur Rommens will shrug off a knock.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> Gaylene Mcnaught <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skysports.com\/football\/news\/11095\/13522210\/danny-rohl-rangers-will-be-tough-to-stop-in-scottish-premiership-title-race-if-results-start-to-reflect-performances\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Danny R\u00f6hl insists Rangers will be &#8220;tough to stop&#8221; if they start to marry performances with results.
