    We’re coming out swinging too mate, at home 60,000 of us. Telling ye they are * * themselves. They need to be careful of us were more dangerous. I always get nervous for these games but I’m confident af about this one tbh

    Its win or bust for them. A draw won't do it. So they gotta do a few unnatural things. Get on the front foot and attack. Not make mistakes.

    Fans are crucial for this. Gotta be on their backs for the entire 100mins. Roars of encouragement at everything. I really believe the fans make a huge difference here.

    Rodgers has Baldymort covered. Players are fragile as *.

    Literally one last massive positive push and we're done. Everyone at Parkhead has a part to play in Saturday.

    Our only weak spot is scales. I genuinely prefer Nawrocki (who done well against rangers this season) because his long accurate passing leads to more exciting build up play.

    Hopefully we learn a lesson from the last few games where teams have tried to get at us early. On the other hand would be nice to score our first goal a wee bit quicker than the last game against them :fear:

    Yeah we need to be winning this game. We have no excuses not to win it and would be a bit embarrassing given everything is in our favour. We have a fully fit squad, are playing well (mostly), have 60000 fans behind us and Rangers are a poor side with injuries and possibly some discontent in the squad.
    Will be very disappointed if we don't win by at least a couple.

    Nah * that, I fancy us, but I'd seriously take a draw now.

    If we go into the last game and it goes to goal difference, I don't care how many they need, 5, 6, 8, 10, they'll get it, no doubt.

    We will win it.
    We need to.
    We need the money to pay for new players since next season is only season we can start in CL league stage as following season it’s play off place for SPL winners and following season unless we win a European trophy it will just be one spot available for champions league with 2nd place in Europa league

    No chance, I don't honestly see any way they get the better of us.

    We have the more solid players and characters and by far the better technical players.

    Can you actually imagine Souttar, Lundstram, Tavernier, Cantwell, Silva and Dessers for example playing well and getting the better of us? for me Taylor, CCV, McGregor, O'Riley, Hatate, Maeda and Kyogo are going to dominate and bully them and create chances and score goals.

    They're going to be panicking at the back, booting it long back to us and we will be controlling possession, pinning them back and cutting through them. First goal and they're soiling their pants and in disarray trying to avoid a pumping.

    They've not got the quality or the bottle to come here and do anything.

    When you think of it rationally, their team will be like mid table English Championship players at best, guys who've won nothing, guys who've been dominated by us over years, Tavernier I think had took five 4+ goal pumpings off us. They are coming into this shiteing themselves, hoping not to concede in the first 10 minutes, wondering about how they are even going to put a pass together, probably hoping just not to get embarrassed.

    We don't like Scales playing for us, their own players will be looking at each other Dessers, Silva, Lundstram and each other thinking "you're pish(Silva), you canny run(Dessers), you've not got the bottle(half the team), you canny pass a ball(Lundstram), you're not a winger(Sterling/McCausland/Wright) im going to need to babysit you as you're useless(Tavernier/Barisic), yous are soft as *(Davies/Souttar/Barisic/Silva/Diomande), you are going to run about stupid leaving us exposed(Cantwell)" etc they won't be able to play with any kind of fluidity because they all know they're * and they don't have any trust in each other to do their own jobs.

    Wish that was true but I think they are going to try and catch us cold in first 5-10 minutes.
    If they can’t we will win

    Aye, we're not dropping points in the last three games of the campaign.

    No chance.

    It's win or bust for them.

    Wouldn't say we are overflowing with quality up top. We have struggled to be clinical.this season.

    Badly miss Jota and Abada (on form). But hopefully it comes together this weekend.

    I do find it hard to imagine them coming and winning, however much stranger things have happened. Two very unpredictable teams this season.

    But I'm always pessimistic ahead of these games.

    Could see them being incredibly nervy in this. They know they need to come out and attack but leaving themselves exposed to counter attacks with players that are far superior to anything they have.

    They can't afford to go behind.

    The crowd need to back us relentlessly and hound those * as soon as they come out the tunnel.

    Personally think they will perform better away from their own fans. They will be dangerous as * for the first 20 mins

    With Sima out and probably Matondo they have zero pace to cause us problems up top..

    They'll maybe try Sterling on the wing but that takes away him buzzing about in midfield or at the back..

    They're honestly brutal and limping away just now on life support that will be cut off on Saturday..

    I've zero nerves for this. I think we'll do a number on them and that'll be that..

    Them coming to a packed celtic park on the cusp of a title, knowing they need to win to stop us wrapping up the league on the day. Lol..

    A club full of losers. Their manager screaming I can't handle the pressure here..

    Buzzing, absolutely buzzing my wee nips off for it..

    Wouldn't be surprised if one of them lose the rag and gets sent off or we beat the offside and get brought down...again.

    No wingers of any standards is a killer for them.

    I can't believe how many of them think that the pressure is all on us.

    We draw or win, it's over. They literally have to win or it's over.

    We'll run over the top of them....especially with Maeda back..

    I've noticed for a while against us, moments in their home game to Hibs, Ross County and Dundee that they're so sloppy in possession and don't have the legs when countered..

    Don't have the pace or quality up top or on the wings. Everyone can see that..

    Don't have the pace with Lundstram being am anchor man. We bypass him so often in these games..

    They don't have the legs at the back with Tavernier and Souttar and whoever they go for are a calamity almost every game. Left back will be a who's who of diddy shitebags as well and a keeper who is much much worse than Hart with the ball at his feet and petrified of our press..

    Go at them from the off and they're gonna completely * this..
