The Swansea City defender was one of the three people to see red in the Carling Cup tie at the Liberty and has vowed not to repeat that misdemeanour when the two sides meet in the league next weekend.<\/p>\n
Rangel saw red for an elbow on Matthew Sparrow shortly after Gorka Pintado was sent off for his second bookable offence.<\/p>\n
And Rangel has promised to keep his temper next weekend and keep himself available for the games to come.<\/p>\n
He said “Whatever happens at Scunthorpe I will not lose my temper like I did in the Carling Cup game.\u00a0 I made a massive mistake that night and I’ve learned from it.\u00a0 You can’t lose your cool during a game.<\/p>\n
“Scunthorpe are a physical side and fight for every ball.\u00a0 But I won’t get distracted by any aggressive play on Saturday.\u00a0 I will just walk away from it.<\/p>\n
“The red card in the Carling Cup was horrible because I was suspended for three games.<\/p>\n
“I felt guilty sitting in the stands watching the team.\u00a0 The manager had a go at all three of us.\u00a0 He told us we should use our brains on the pitch and said he hoped it never happens again.\u00a0 I thought he might fine us but he let us off and we were very grateful for that.<\/p>\n
“I’m sure if we’re sent off again he will fine us.\u00a0 But as far as I am concerned there will be no repeat.\u00a0\u00a0 I can’t wait for the Scunthorpe game because I want to show everyone Swansea are a better team than them.<\/p>\n
“We will be going there looking for three points that will be our focus.<\/p>\n
“We were much better than them at the Liberty.\u00a0 They only won because we had players sent off.\u00a0 Even when we were down to nine players we had chances to win.\u00a0 The referee wasn’t very experienced and I think he felt the pressure.<\/p>\n
“We reacted well to that defeat.\u00a0 We’ve had a good run since then and climbed up the table.<\/p>\n
“We’re a fantastic side on the ball.\u00a0 We’re not a dirty side.\u00a0\u00a0 We can ambarrass teams when we have possession and that’s what we’ll be trying to do at Scunthorpe.<\/p>\n
“We’ve also got Cardiff coming up which is one of our biggest games of the season.\u00a0 Everyone at the club wants to be involved in that one.\u00a0 Then we’ve got Derby and Newcastle so it’s\u00a0a massive month for us and another reason not to get into trouble.<\/p>\n
