Khadija Shaw leads the shortlist for WSL Player of the Season!
Rangers striker Youssef Chermiti states the team's recent defeats have ignited a strong motivation for next season. Following a fourth consecutive loss, the team is at risk of losing all post-split matches.
Rangers striker Youssef Chermiti says the side's post-split capitulation has put "fire in our belly" for next season.
Dane Scarlett's late winner for Hibs at Ibrox on Wednesday night consigned Rangers to their fourth defeat in a row for the first time since 1983.
Danny Rohl's side were already guaranteed a third-place Premiership finish following defeat to Celtic last weekend but are now facing the possibility of losing all of their post-split games should they suffer defeat at Falkirk on Saturday.
But Chermiti, who joined from Everton last summer, is hoping this season's disappointment can inspire Rangers to success next term.
"Yeah, obviously we know we haven't won for four games in a row," the 21-year-old said.
"We're really sad but I think that just gives us a fire in our belly for next season.
"Yeah, for sure, because this season was a fail for us, so obviously we need to improve better and we go again next season."
Rohl had clawed Rangers, who were 13 points adrift when he replaced Russell Martin at the helm, back into the title race but defeats to Motherwell, Hearts and Celtic ended their hopes of a first top-flight crown in five years.
After a difficult start to life in Glasgow, Chermiti is desperate to lift a trophy with the Ibrox club.
"I want to win the title, that's what I'm thinking about," he added.
"Obviously, the first few months in Scotland was a bit difficult for me but I've had some time to settle down.
"And as I said in a few [media] conferences before, I feel more confident in the team, in the country as well.
"Everyone gave me more confidence and even me, on the pitch, I feel more confident.
"This season has been sad for us. We had a goal, we didn't get it but this is football and we go again next season.
"Our target now is Falkirk, we're trying to finish the season well and we're trying to win the game against Falkirk."
Youssef Chermiti mentioned that the team's recent defeats have put a 'fire in our belly' for the upcoming season.
Rangers have faced four consecutive defeats for the first time since 1983.
Rangers risk losing all of their post-split games if they suffer another defeat against Falkirk.
