Calmac: You can’t match our intensity
CaLLUm mcgREgOR reckons others can’t live with Celtic at their intense best.
and the Parkhead skipper is keen to see what Rangers have got in their locker as he gears up for tomorrow’s blockbuster title showdown.
Philippe Clement is yet to taste victory against the champions and that has to change if he’s to have a realistic chance of securing a Treble after not even a full season in charge at Ibrox.
as far as mcgregor is concerned, it’s up to Rangers to keep pace with Brendan Rodgers’ men when they are 100 per cent at it in the heat of the Old Firm battle.
He said: “If you don’t enjoy them then you’re going to struggle to play at a big club like this. So over the years you build up more experience and when the games come around then you know when you’re in the middle of it, you have to enjoy it.
“You’ve got to enjoy the fight and the battle of it. generally, when you do that, then you have positive experiences.
“So we’ll definitely be trying to have another one of them. We’ve just got to stay calm and focus on doing our job. Sometimes you can become overemotional and you understand what the game means in the context of the season.
“But if we focus on our performance and working as hard as we possibly can for each other and the fans, then you know straight away the energy level goes up.
“When we take the game to a level and intensity that teams struggle to live with, that’s when we play our best football.
“So I think that the message for us is, focus on ourselves, work as hard as we can for each other. Let’s go and take the game to them and see what they’ve got.”
