Former Celtic and currently Leicester City boss, Brendan Rodgers has back Neil Lennon’s side to bounce back from adversity and the result on Thursday night, as they have done in the past.
Speaking on Sky Sports, whilst Rodgers Leicester side was running away with a 4-0 win against Portuguese side Braga, Celtic were falling to a 4-1 defeat to the hands of Sparta Prague. Despite that though, the Premier League boss has backed Lennon and his side to bounce back from this result as they have done in the past.
“Celtic is a unique job, with a unique pressure where not too many clubs no too many clubs in world football have the expectancies to win every single game.
“I think that Neil going in there (the Celtic job), has done a fantastic job since he has been in, the players have been amazing over a long, long period of time, they are proven winners and any time they have ever had a setback, they’ve always come back strongly.
“I only know too well, you lose a game, of course, it can be a disaster but it’s still very early on in the season. Neil and the guys will be disappointed with the result but I’ve got absolutely no doubt, they have been on this path before and like a say, its a very, very long season ahead.
“There are players to come back and I think they will go on and have a really successful season.”
In the past, we have bounced back from poor results and won trophies but so far this year we haven’t been on any sort of form to do that really.
Thursday night’s result was probably one of the most embarrassing in years and could potentially be a hard one to bounce back from.
We really have to hope Rodgers is right and we will bounce back as we have in recent seasons but at this current time, there is a huge amount of doubt around that.
Not too sure if Lennon can rally the bhoys
there’s something going on within this club that’s just not right.At least 4-5 players are
not up to the standard expected of this mighty football club.Also taking into consideration I honestly think 2-3 players don’t give 2 f**ks.As for the scouting set up cmon,they’ll need to get rid of this mug ASAP.To think Duffy,barkas even ajeti are decent players,this guy needs his eyesight checked.Get to Xmas and try and keep on the scums fae govans tails and sell Edourd ntcham,drop brown use turnball give the
fella a run out.How mcgregor gets a game week in week out baffles me,lennon needs to take action now before it’s too late.HH
