Yet another Rangers player takes a major pop at Russell Martin | OneFootball

Clinton Nsiala has become the latest Rangers player to publicly voice frustration with Russell Martin. His words follow a growing number of critical comments, and his case has been detailed in Ibrox Noise. With Nico Raskin and Joe Rothwell already expressing doubts, the manager looks more isolated than ever. Even captain James Tavernier has failed to offer any meaningful support, adding to the sense of division inside Ibrox. This situation is toxic, and the pressure grows every passing day.

Nsiala’s blunt message

Nsiala admitted his “sufferings” under Martin, describing the situation in raw and honest terms. His anger mirrors what many fans already think, and it adds to the growing dissent reported by Ibrox Noise. When players go public like this, the problems are clearly bigger than tactics or form. The Europa League build-up should focus on unity, yet instead the squad looks split. The mood is fractured, and supporters no longer believe Martin can turn it around.

Raskin and Rothwell’s warning

Nico Raskin previously questioned the manager’s handling of the squad, suggesting players were not being used properly. Joe Rothwell then followed with his own doubts. Now Nsiala has joined them, showing the pattern is undeniable. Ibrox Noise has already highlighted how Martin’s grip on the dressing room looks broken. Successful Rangers managers in the past thrived on respect, but that trust has gone. Each statement from the players chips away at Martin’s fragile position.

Tavernier’s silence speaks volumes

James Tavernier remains captain, but he has failed to defend Martin in public. Normally the armband carries loyalty and leadership, yet his silence highlights the problem. Ibrox Noise has pointed out that fans no longer see him backing his manager the way he did with Gerrard or Clement. That lack of support sends a message just as strong as any outspoken criticism. When even the captain stands back, the cracks look permanent.

The outcome is becoming unavoidable. The squad is in revolt, the captain is silent, and the manager is sinking deeper into crisis. The discontent is clear in every corner of the club. Rangers themselves have spoken about preparation for Graz, but the noise around Martin overshadows it all. Europe should be about unity, not division, but the squad is broken.

The issue now lies in trust. UEFA prepares for a European night, but Rangers enter it with chaos swirling. The captain’s silence cuts deeper than any loss on the pitch. Without faith from the players, Martin’s authority collapses further.

Supporters already know the truth. Even official voices at Sturm Graz recognise the turmoil. The squad will not fight for a manager they no longer believe in. The board can ignore it only so long, but the pressure is now critical. Fans demand action, and the cracks tearing through Ibrox have grown too wide to ignore.
