Rangers manager Derek McInnes is facing early pressure after failing to secure a victory in his first three games in charge. The team’s recent 2-1 home defeat to Hibernian has left the manager expressing frustration with the club's current trajectory and performance levels.

Beyond the result on the pitch, the match proved costly for the squad's depth. Big-money signing Youssef Chermiti sustained an injury during the contest, further complicating McInnes’s efforts to stabilize the team. While the manager has publicly voiced his dissatisfaction with the outcome, the club now faces a difficult period as they look to address both their lack of points and the loss of a key attacking player. The team’s inability to capitalize on home advantage against Hibernian has highlighted the challenges McInnes faces in his tenure, as he attempts to turn the club's form around early in the season.
