Bernard Enjoying Life Again
However, he has backed his new club ... Rangers ... to win every single Bank of Scotland Premier League game between now and the end of the season and clinch the championship against all the odds once again.
The Ibrox club have become experts at winning title races in dramatic style, twice claiming victory on the final day of the campaign during Alex McLeish's reign. And Craig Bellamy was gutted when it robbed him of a Scottish league and cup double last term.
The leaves have yet to fall off the trees, but Rangers are already being written-off as having little chance of defending their title this term following a dismal start.
Olivier Bernard: "We can't afford to drop any more points. The others have enough points in their hands already so so we have to make sure we win every week. I'm sure if we can do that then the others will drop points.
"I believe it is possible for us to go on a run and win every league game between now and the end of the season.
"I think something happened to the team out there in Milan. We played against a good team and we had more possession. That shows us that, when we play football, we can outplay anyone. I think that has helped us to believe in ourselves."
