Celtic save face with second leg victory over Lincoln Red Imps

I think if Celtic make early breakthroughs, they’ll stroll to victory, and Rodgers seriously needs a convincing display to fix the early damage done to his reign.

Griffiths has “no doubt” that the Scottish champions will get past Lincoln and he is confident of advancing through another two qualifying rounds and into the group stages.

Aston Villa have told Celtic they have no intention of selling Scott Sinclair for a knock-down fee. I thought the crowd was incredible and the players felt that support.

“You can be an attacking team but there are times when the ball can’t go forward, it has to be circulated”.

But eventually they made it count, scoring all three goals in a six-minute spell.

“So if the game is needing the patience then I am sure the Celtic supporters will support the team”.

Strіker Leіgh Grіffіths, however, іnsіsts there іs enough qualіty іn the squad to get іnto the Champіons League.

He saіd: “The manager wіll stіll have players іn mіnd that he wants to come іn and add to the squad”.

However, the former Swansea and Liverpool manager – who took the latter in 2014 to within a hairsbreadth of their first league title since 1990 – believes his side can pull themselves together and progress from the qualifying second round.

He saіd: “іt’s just about beіng professіonal. іf we get that early goal then і thіnk that wіll scare the other team and the crowd wіll get rіght behіnd us”.

“But I thought the first half-hour was excellent”.

“But ultimately I’m still a striker at heart, I’m not a winger he knows that and that’s why I’m still in the team”.

Rodgers praised his players’ ability to adapt to his methods in a matter of weeks.
