An enjoyable listen, but I have to confess the way Rodgers pronounces 'Kolo' makes me pine for Ronny.

It's brilliant that so many of us are so much looking forward to the next match

Best start to a season in a long time

Good time to be a Celtic fan
:thumbsup:

Absolutely. It is nice to feel this way about Celtic again as opposed to the dread that had been setting in.

Glad to hear him mention the need to be better at retaining the ball. If he can manage to coach that into the players while mostly playing against domestic teams who panic and give us the ball back after 3 passes he'll be doing well.

I hope we make sure he doesn't hear the CL music the next three times too because it will mean we are well up for it.

Good to hear him mentioning about the passing back. That is deffinitely something we fans are going to have to be more tolerant of. Clearly letting us know here that he is telling the players to play like that as a way to retain possession. Once the players improve further and are more comfortable with the ball, I reckon the passes back will reduce anyway. The crowd are generally less patient during domestic games than European games...and if Brendan can coach that impatience out of the crowd then he really is a miracle worker!

I'm I the only one seeing the beginning of the lets try and undermine Rodgers campaign in the papers. Attempting to cast doubt in Celtic fans minds about his judgment. It's early days but a few ex players have now come out and bemoaning his treatment of Craig Gordon and his supposed ill treatment of him.

Quite looking forward to seeing how he deals with the CL tactically.

We'll need to be very well drilled defensively, clever with our pressing and when we get the chance to pass and move we'll need to be spot on. The pace we have on the wings now will help.

As always, I'll be happy for us simple to prove we can compete at that level without getting spanked too heavily.

Lennon got it spot on in his first season in the champions league but pretty wrong in his second season. I think that was down to over confidence in the players, he thought they could do things they weren't good enough to do. I'm hoping Rodgers doesn't make the same mistake.

Great interview. I'm starting to feel some serious man love for the guy.

To think I was desperate to get Moyes as well. :ffs:

remember when the press thought we should play Kris Commons in every game? That's gone a bit quiet. Like Joe Hart , Gordon will have his pals in the press who think they know it better than the manager, yet they are being ghost-written for tabloid junk while BR moves forward apace.
Trust the manager. Ignore the idiot snipers :thumbsup:

I think most fans have seen the need for more competition for Gordon. His kicking has been crap since day one. The papers will have to try harder than that to undermine the gaffer.

They won't undermine him - He is way ahead of the them at that game.

The Celtic Support shouldn't bite on these winkers either - Gordon needs completion now he has got it - Good Managers see a problem and act on said problem to resolve it.

Is right :thumbsup:

Ronny wasn't strong enough to handle that. I think Rodgers is. I am so sick of ex-players and the media thinking they can speak on our behalf. Those of us going to games know that Craig Gordon has not had a great start to the season. He finally has some competition for his spot after a couple of years of being guaranteed no.1. He can choose to knuckle down and try and force his way back in, but I know one thing, the media whining on his behalf won't hold any sway with Rodgers like it might have with Ronny. He wants back in, he can earn it.

So glad David Moyes isn't our manager. I was all for it before an appointment was made. Looking at it now though, it could only have been Brendan :worthy:
