Honesty. Well said.

How this has changed within a matter of weeks is baffling. Something must have happened behind the scenes.

Less bullshit than we will learn crap . An honest assessment that we all can see.

Well in Dujon. It must be horrible sitting in a dressing room looking at players around you and questioning their bottle and commitment.

He's correct
Just what has happened and going on within the group
Good on him for being so honest.
Utterly damning of the mindset of his teammates.
They ought to be ashamed of themselves.

At least it's an honest assessment. Maybe if others were prepared to admit similar publicly, we'd be able to address it.
It shows up Clement's interview for what it was.

Good that he's giving an honest assessment.
He's right - the belief absolutely isn't there and hasn't been since the first minute against the mentally challengeds.
One of the very few who I want to see in a Rangers jersey next season.

Younger player in his first season at the club who can see things clearly. Makes you wonder why the so-called leaders can't see it or do anything about it.

It’s good to hear some honesty but usually that doesn’t go down well here.
I’ll guess that because it’s Sterling rather than some others the reaction will be different.

100% correct and a real indictment on our squad.

He is absolutely bang on the money, his words have also effectively tied the ribbon on the box of our title chances, before they are sent to nochanceville.

Honest as the day is long on the pitch and the exact same off it.
He'll do for me.

Flies in the face of the managers assessment last night.
But he’s honest, and he’s right as we can all see it.
Respect.

Respect.
So called leaders are sitting on a cushy number that's why. Need a clear out. Start with Goldson who btw wanted to leave but couldn't find a club.

Nothing we didn’t already know but better than the usual bullshit trotted out; learn and move on…
Not a single leader in that dressing room.

Likeable guy and one player that can hold his head high this season
He should be first name on the team sheet for centre mid from now on. I’d rather have him in there than right back tbh

Canny believe a young boy who’s been here not even a full season has had to come out and say that when the supposed experienced pros sit in the changing room feeling sorry for themselves

Be interesting to know where and why the belief went. Really flying, then lost to Motherwell, but followed that up with a very good performance in Lisbon. Beat Hibs either side of losing narrowly to Benfica. No shame in that. Piss poor against Celtic, but at least showed enough fight to get a point and keep the title firmly in our own hands. Then an absolute shocker in Dingwall, followed up by a toothless performance at Dens. Why? I can genuinely only put it down to the mentality of players who have done the same thing so often in recent years, when we get to the big games at the sharp end of the season. Unfortunately these same players are our 'leadership group', so if others are taking a lead from them, it's no wonder we continually fall short. It needs addressed.

Crap, we won some big games while being top.

When it came to the crunch the pressure got to them.
It's no surprise unfortunately.

Probably the manager telling the players a few home truths behind the scenes after the Motherwell defeat, telling some of them they aren't getting renewed, telling a few to find new clubs at the end of the season and the clique takes the huff.

When a man that's played everywhere asked of him gives no excuses and questions the commitment of others it's time to pay attention.

That's leadership.
That's turning it from the manager, back onto the dressing room.

That's hardly news to anyone.
We already knew it but it's a bit refreshing to hear some honesty. Dujon can hold his head high and is one of the few players who is a genuine battler at the club.

One of the few who you can see is trying.
Good on him.
The so called leadership group should feel embarrassed and humiliated hearing a young player calling them all out essentially.

Managers always back their team in adversity. Fergie was notorious for saying it was green when it was actually blue.
He called them out at the weekend and didn't get a response, so he's trying a different tact.
Dujon is spot on though and he's right to call his team mates out, it's the majority of them that have chucked the towel in. The manager still believes in them, but he can't make them believe in themselves. It has to come from within.
We need guys like Sterling.
Quick, powerful and athletic.
Too many slow plodders like Lawrence and others

It's not crap, you said "How this has changed within a matter of weeks" when it's already happened season after season. So I'm not sure why you're acting like this collapse is unexpected?
