Giovanni van Bronckhorst was speaking to RangersTV after winning the SPFL Manager of the Month award.

Is this award a reflection of how positive your start at the club has been?

It’s always nice to win awards. The start of my career at Rangers has been very positive and I’m very proud to win this award, but I think what’s behind the award is much more important. It means we [the whole staff] have done a great job.

My staff who came with me and the staff who were already here have helped me a lot and worked hard to achieve the wins. Also the players, I thank them for all the work they’ve done in the last weeks and months – that’s why I got this award! It means you’re doing a good job and gives me more motivation to keep going.

Does the good work give you a platform for the rest of the season?

We have confidence, we had a good run before the break and were working hard now to keep the momentum going and make sure we’re there every game – getting the wins we need!

Alfredo Morelos claimed the Player of the Month – how impressed have you been with him?

I think he’s done well since I came in and scored some important goals, which is always important for the team. He’s working hard and his attitude has been really good which is a positive factor for the team.
