Rodgers calls for brave Bhoys
Head coach Brendan Rodgers has told his Celtic players to try and play on the front foot when they take on Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday. The Bhoys suffered a 7-0 rout at the hands of Barca in the Camp Nou in their opening Group C game just over two months ago.
Rodgers downplays Gerrard talk
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has cooled talk suggesting he is set to be reunited with the former Liverpool and England midfielder Steven Gerrard. The two men worked together at Anfield and reports suggested Rodgers was set to launch a bid to sign the veteran who left LA Galaxy earlier this week.
Sviatchenko wants frightening Celtic
Celtic defender Erik Sviatchenko hopes Wednesday’s Champions League opponents Borussia Monchengladbach struggle to cope with the intimidating atmosphere at Celtic Park.
The Hoops produced arguably their best performance of the season so far last time out in Europe when they held Manchester City to a 3-3 draw in front of their own fans.
