Celtic’s win over Hearts last weekend set the team up with a huge boost in confidence ahead of the Glasgow Derby on Saturday. A comprehensive 3-0 win was bolstered with a superb team performance that really pleased Brendan Rodgers ahead of the big game against Rangers. With Kyogo Furuhashi grabbing a superb double and Callum McGregor and Matt O’Riley running the midfield, Celtic looked really hungry and sharp in their win over the capital club. And that is why Simon Donnelly has predicted that his old club will have too much in their locker for Rangers to be able to compete at Parkhead. How Ra...

Celtic fans have enjoyed the exploits of some extremely gifted midfielders throughout years gone by at Parkhead. One who probably never got the credit he deserved in green and white is Barry Robson, who spent three years at the club before departing for Middlesbrough in 2010, winning a Scottish Premiership title and Scottish League Cup. Brought in from Dundee United, Robson went on to rack up seven goals and seven assists in 54 appearances for Celtic, including strikes such as his ice-cool penalty against Rangers and header against Barcelona in 2007/08 [Transfermarkt]. Following his spell in Y...

With just under 48 hours to go to the big Glasgow Derby kick-off at Celtic Park, the predictions from pundits and former players are coming in thick and fast. Already the Celtic fans have seen the likes of Chris Sutton give his prediction and Barry Ferguson talking earlier about worrying about James Forrest. With Celtic getting back to full strength and Rangers having some injury issues to worry about, there is a slight air of confidence from the Hoops fans and Andy Halliday seems to know why. Celtic fans don’t ‘fear’ three Rangers playersAndy Halliday was running the rule over Rangers’ chance...

Celtic are set for a busy summer of transfer activity that could see plenty of movement in and out of the Parkhead doors. Brendan Rodgers will already be planning on where to strengthen his squad following several instances of the Irishman emphasising the need for ‘quality’ additions to arrive at the club during the season. Before he delves into scouring the globe for talent, solving the futures of loanees Adam Idah and Paulo Bernardo will come to the forefront, with the latter said to have an option to buy worth £6.4 million in his agreement. According to reports, Motherwell goalkeeper Liam K...

Celtic have been told to spend £5m this summer on a striker who would guarantee 20 goals a season. Brendan Rodgers knows that he has a lot of work to do to strengthen the Celtic squad in some key areas in the summer and if recent reports are to be believed, the Hoops boss is already putting plans in place to do just that. Reports this morning claimed that Liam Kelly is on Celtic’s radar and earlier this week we discussed the possibility of Queens Park Rangers defender, Jake Clarke-Salter, joining the club in the summer. But there is one player that Craige Moore believes Celtic must go and sign...

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is continuing to establish his vision at Parkhead since returning north of the border last summer. In addition to the Irishman’s signings over the last two windows, there has also been no shortage of new contract renewals as Rodgers and company lay the foundations for long-term success. Daizen Maeda, Kyogo Furuhashi, Reo Hatate, and Matt O’Riley all put pen to paper on extensions in 2023; meanwhile, Liam Scales signed a fresh four-year deal last week to cement his rise from obscurity to becoming a valuable first-team member. Whether to safeguard prize assets or as a...

The chat surrounding who will start for Celtic against Rangers on Saturday is what’s been on all the Celtic fans’ lips this week. With much of the team picking itself, most pundits and former players have been talking about who will start in Brendan Rodgers’ front three. We discussed earlier today how Jim Duffy explained why James Forrest could well be left on the bench this Saturday. Duffy believes that the Celtic winger could be an effective impact player if Rodgers needs a goal in the last 30 minutes of the game. And he’s not wrong. However, former Rangers hero, Barry Ferguson, has a differ...

Celtic could take a major step towards lifting the Scottish Premiership trophy if they can defeat Rangers on Saturday. Retaining a three-point gap heading into the Glasgow Derby, the Bhoys could put themselves on the brink with a victory, which would leave them needing one point against Kilmarnock the following Wednesday to secure the title mathematically. Nevertheless, Rangers will arrive in Glasgow’s east end knowing they are in win-or-bust territory, signifying that Brendan Rodgers and company cannot take anything for granted at Parkhead. Last time out against their city rivals, Celtic came...

Vasilis Barkas left Celtic permanently in 2023 after a spell that probably didn’t go the way he or the club envisaged at Parkhead. Brought in for £4.5 million at the beginning of 2020/21, the Greece international arrived at an unusual point in the Bhoys’ history. Scottish Premiership games were being played behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Undoubtedly, the campaign’s end result is a topic Celtic fans won’t spend too much time revisiting; however, the 29-year-old has rediscovered his best form since moving to Utrecht on loan in 2022 before completing a permanent switch to the E...

Celtic’s need to add quality to the squad has been pressed home on numerous occasions this season by Brendan Rodgers. Poor performances domestically as well as in the Champions League left the Celtic boss sending a message that the recruitment completed in the summer simply wasn’t good enough. The proof in the pudding is Rodgers not playing £7.5m duo Gustaf Lagerbielke and Maik Nawrocki in favour of the impressive Liam Scales. However, it is the goalkeeping position that now takes priority for Rodgers as the Celtic manager ponders how to deal with the upcoming retirement of Joe Hart. We told t...
