IT is good to talk. It is even better to win. When the victory has been in doubt, a heart-to-heart conversation has been the inspiration for Rangers.

There have been few times when harsh words have had to be spoken around Ibrox or Murray Park so far this season. It is the roar of celebration from the stands that has greeted Mark Warburton and his players more often than not.

After setting the bar so high in the opening weeks of the campaign, Rangers have found it difficult to keep reaching the same levels in recent times. The wins, crucially, have still come, though.

After a defeat to Hibernian and draw with Livingston, the Ibrox double-header with St Mirren and Dumbarton carried plenty of importance for Warburton’s side. Both games were won 4-0, but neither performance was as emphatic throughout as the score line suggests.

It is, of course, the final outcome that is of most importance and it will matter little when the goals arrive against Morton this afternoon should another three points be added to their tally.

And right-back James Tavernier is confident Rangers can find a solution to any problem that arises should they find themselves in a similar situation against the Ton.

"We know at half-time when we haven't played to our standards,” he said.

“The gaffer goes to his room, we have a few words and then he comes in and we all speak.

"There are definitely characters in the team and we can solve the problems ourselves.

"There are first halves in games that haven't been acceptable, the tempo hasn't been right and we have fixed it. We've been better in the second half.

"Does it get heated? It's never personal. Nothing we say is personal - we are all working towards the same goal.

"If a few words are exchanged, the lads know not to take it the wrong way. If they do, there can be problems in the dressing room and lads don't get on.

"It's nothing like that here. We are a great, tight group of lads.”

Through all the conversations the Rangers squad have amongst themselves or Warburton has with his players, the one topic that is never likely to arise is that of a change of approach.

The Englishman is determined to stick to the blue print that brought him success south of the border with Brentford and has been taken on board by the Ibrox crowd this term.

There have been calls in some quarters for Rangers to find an alternative route to goal, to be more direct and for Warburton to add a physical presence to his side.

Tavernier, though, is confident their first plan of attack will prove to be a successful one as Rangers set their sights on the Championship crown.

He said: "I don't believe we need a plan B. When we lost to Hibs, we dominated the ball and it was just down to us not taking chances.

"If we'd done that, it would have been a different story. Apart from the two goals we lost, Hibs didn't really create a lot.

"In the draw against Livingston, it was frustrating for the lads. We dominated again.

"Plan A is the best way to play and it has worked for us most weeks.

"Against Livingston, we forced it a bit towards the end and when we worked at analysis, we realised that wasn't us.

"In previous game, we've passed and played towards the end and got the late goals. If we keep doing that, goals will come.”

The determination to stick to the plan that has been in place since Warburton assembled his squad during the summer will place pressure on the shoulders of Tavernier in the remainder of his debut season at Ibrox.

The defender has been one of Rangers’ key men so far this term, a string of impressive performances and 10 goals crucial to the success of Warburton’s side to date.

Opposition teams have changed their approach against Rangers in recent weeks, and it is not just their attacking players that have been affected.

Tavernier said: “I’ve noticed that people have tried to stop me when I get on the ball. They have been closing me down and doubling up on me. That gives me something different to think about it and I like it.

“It’s good to think they are doubling up on me as I’m obviously doing something right.

“I need to try and find a way around that. I’m looking forward and I can’t wait to find ways to get past people.”

If Rangers can find a way to get past Morton this afternoon, it will be another step towards the Championship crown for Warburton’s side.

The Light Blues make the trip to Falkirk next weekend before hosting title rivals Hibernian in their final fixture of the year.

Easter Road boss Alan Stubbs this week claimed his side were getting into the mind of the Ibrox squad, but Rangers’ focus remains firmly fixed on themselves.

Tavernier said: “I keep hearing people talk about the pressure but I don’t feel any at all if I’m honest. We are just doing what we normally do every week.

“Our record stands at lost once and drawn once so it’s a great record for the season so far and good in any league.

“We think we are doing well and we will go into this weekend’s game to do what we normally do. We want to be aggressive, be dominant on the ball and hopefully claim another three points.”
