    We will bury Brugge at home, bury them and who cares about what EPL Villa do. We would have qualified by the time we play them and most probably so will they.

    Expect them all to be decent/good sides, including Young Boys.

    They’re all games where we should be capable of taking something if we play like we are capable of though. Happy to just take it one game at a time and focus on performance - if we’re as tenacious and determined as we were against Atalanta, or as composed and skilful as we were against Leibzig, we’ll equip ourselves well.

    The goal at the start was obviously to make the top 24.
    I think now we should be realistically aiming for a top 16 finish to get seeding in the playoffs, that would be a phenomenal achievement!

    But if we get a win against Brugge, we’ll be in an unbelievable position of seriously pushing for the top 8!

    There’s not one, even the most optimistic, Celtic fan who would have envisioned that!

    An absolute credit to BR and the players!
    What a season it’s been! :shamrock:

    Believe me we will put Brugge to the Sword, then our confidence will be off the scale:50:

    If we were to make top 16, how does the seeding work? Is it 9th v 24th, 10th v 23rd and so on? Or does the draw get redone in a “special” way so to advantage the big clubs?

    Best not to get ahead of ourselves. 100% focus on the Killie match. When Brugge game comes round 100% focus on that - win that and we've effectively qualified for the playoff stage at least. If we can get that job done, then look at what's next.
