QUOTE OF THE DAY

‘Celtic were great against Bayern but if they are to do anything in the Europa League, Rodgers needs to sign two centre-backs in January’ says he has nothing to prove in Europe, that’s rubbish. He has everything to prove as Celtic have had repeated humiliations then lost this week to a team missing four of their best players due to injury.

“They are quite clearly not good enough for the Champions League and need to recognise this. Stop kidding yourselves on.”

Stewart Douglas, Bishopbriggs, added: “Rodgers surely realises Celtic were beaten at home by Bayern Munich reserves.”

Paul Price, East Belfast, said: “I think every Celtic fan, being honest, would say the target at the start was third place ahead of Anderlecht and they are on course to achieve that. Let’s hope with the addition of a decent centre-half in January we’ll be able to enjoy a good run in the Europa League.” Rangers’ search for a new boss continues but

James Scott, Kirkintilloch, reckons he’s already under the board’s noses. He said: “I don’t think Derek McInnes is the man as he’s had two seasons with Aberdeen to dent Celtic and he couldn’t do it.

“Now, by chance, Rangers have come upon a young manager who is fit for purpose to take them forward by blending and unifying the team.

“Just give Graham Murty permission to go and appoint an assistant and get the job done himself. Then Ibrox can buzz again.”

Tom McGuire, Berkshire, added: “Murty would be a good choice. He’s already in the job, doing well and could bring Alex McLeish in to support him. It would be a perfect mix.

“Let’s not overlook him and end up paying out a fortune in compensation for McInnes when we already have a man equipped for the job.”
