May 20, 2024 · Celtic put themselves on the brink of securing another Scottish Premiership title as they move six points clear of 10-man Rangers with a vital 2-1 victory. O'Riley slams home the opener with a low strike on 35 minutes and an own goal from John Lundstram three minutes later proves to be decisive enough for Rodgers' side despite Cyriel Dessers ...

Endurance is the key word here. Lennon used it himself after the recent Old Firm win over Rangers, when a late James Forrest goal grabbed the points. Celtic have outlasted everyone this season, at times going deep into stoppage time to secure results - notably at Dundee and Kilmarnock during the run-in. That is testament to the players' mentality a...
Forrest has continued his evolution into a potent weapon for club and country. Through the autumn he was almost unstoppable, scoring four goals in the first half at St Johnstone in a standout performance, form he continued on the big stage for Scotland in November. The goals have dried up somewhat since then, but 17 in all competitions for Celtic i...
This is Rodgers' team, no question. His mark remains over Celtic's possession game and flowing football when in full flight. Defensively, early in the season Celtic were suspect, but since the winter break they have conceded just three league goals - a tribute to the work put in on the training pitches of Dubai. Scott Bain's elevation to first-choi...
Celtic's early-season troubles were largely of their own making: an awful summer transfer window, a surprise Champions League exit to AEK Athens, and defensive vulnerabilities exposed. In January these wrongs were righted in the transfer market and on the training pitch. On the pitch, the squad have a mentality that endures (that word again) which ...
Another treble would be a remarkable feat, especially given the unpredictable nature of cup football, and Celtic are now just one win away from achieving that - they take on Hearts in the Scottish Cup final on May 25. Celtic will always be favourites for the league, but cups have historically been shared about - the extent of their recent domestic ...
Celtic's defence is ripe for an overhaul this summer. Boyata looks like leaving as a free agent, Lustig and Izaguirre are both out of contract, while Filip Benkovic will return to Leicester and Jeremy Toljan to Borussia Dortmund. Centre-half is the biggest priority; indeed four new defenders may be required ahead of the Champions League qualifiers....
Rangers are realistically the only team who can - theoretically at least - compete with Celtic over a 38-game season. That would require smart recruitment, excellent management and a drop in levels from Celtic. Rangers' recent recruitment has been mixed, and Steven Gerrard has already requested backing from his board for another push this summer; h...
