Rohl admits "hard to take" Hearts defeat
da stake casino: Just when it looked as though Rangers could climb back into Scottish Premiership title contention, their trip to Hearts has left them as many as 12 points behind. The Gers are all but down and out in pursuit of silverware and Rohl couldn’t help but admit his disappointment after Sunday’s defeat.
It’s a defeat which exposed Rangers’ need for reinforcements once again as the January transfer window arrives. And with Kevin Thelwell no longer playing a part in reinforcements or at the club in any capacity, those at Ibrox will hope that any arrivals are able to slot straight into Rohl’s side.
The German recently turned his attention towards the winter window, telling reporters at the start of December: “I think we need players that have a natural aggressivity against the ball, this is also crucial for me.

“And we need players that also understand what it means to play for the Rangers. This is also what I feel and learn in the last weeks, which players can handle this environment and which players have to improve.”
Just who meets that criteria remains to be seen, but recent reports have name-dropped both Jens Hjerto-Dahl and former Ibrox midfielder Josh Windass.
As reported by Ben Jacobs for GiveMeSport, Rohl is now driving Rangers’ approach to sign Windass on loan from Wrexham in the January transfer window.

The £15,000-a-week ace could be on his way back to Rangers for the first time since leaving for Wigan Athletic in 2018. It would be Rohl’s first signing in Scotland and would undoubtedly improve what has been a fairly blunt attack at times so far this season.
Having only just signed Windass on a free in the summer, however, Wrexham are not reportedly keen to sell or loan their midfielder in the winter window in an early blow for Rangers. Whether Windass, who has started 13 out of 19 Championship games this season, feels different remains to be seen.

It would be quite the full-circle moment for Windass if he did complete a move back to Scotland, having impressed in his previous spell, but Phil Parkinson’s praise suggests that he may well be staying put in Wales.

The Wrexham boss told reporters earlier this season: “Josh is a very talented player, but he works for the team as well. Defending starts from the front. He’s good at that. His physical data backs it up.”
