‘I usually get the shout of ‘Sebo’ two seconds after I shoot.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Or “ouch ” from the unsuspecting fellow in the stand that the ball cannons off.<\/p>\n Sinclair scored two more, taking his tally since the break to about fifty, and James Forrest was on the end of a mazy run by stand in left back Johnny Hayes to score his sixth against the Perth side this season.<\/p>\n The only downside to the game was the injury to Oliver Burke, who took a knock, but should be okay for Thursdays game against Spanish minnows Valencia.<\/p>\n Well, if I want to get carried away I can.<\/p>\n Rodgers praised the contribution of Burke..<\/p>\n Oli took a knock to his ankle but we hope he\u2019ll be okay. You see his intensity and the threat he gives us. He was absolutely fantastic today. He should be okay for Thursday.<\/em><\/p>\n Oli has shown and started to progress as we thought he could. He has wonderful attributes and his pressing sets a real tone.<\/em><\/p>\n He\u2019ll be difficult to play against for anyone because the one thing that frightens defenders is pace. The speed he showed today is frightening really. It\u2019s a joy to watch a Scottish player with that physicality and quality. There are things that he continues to work on, but he\u2019s doing exceptionally well and he has to keep improving.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Scott Brown also had a few words on the winger\/striker\/all round top guy…<\/p>\n ‘Ollie is by far the quickest I’ve played with.<\/em><\/p>\n ‘He knows nine times out of 10 he’s going to beat people for pace and Scotty was in the right place as well.<\/em><\/p>\n ‘People won’t keep a high line because of his pace.<\/em><\/p>\n ‘With our forwards, we have pace everywhere in Ollie, Scotty, James and Timothy (Weah). We have pace all over the park and it scares people more than anything.<\/em><\/p>\n ‘If people want to press the game we have that long pass in behind that Ollie, Timo, James and Scotty can take up and run through on goal.’\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Brown has certainly come back after the break a new man. He’s even talking about forward passes.<\/p>\n Jeremy Toljan also caught the eye. His tireless runs on the right flank had a few of us old timers recalling a man who used to run up and down the opposite flank, and whilst the talk is of keeping Burke when his loan spell is finished, there should be equal effort put into retaining Toljan, the first German player to arrive at Celtic and not hand in a sick note as soon as he got off the plane.<\/p>\n And what of Scott Bain ?<\/p>\n There is an argument that he has yet to face quality opposition, but the results still speak for themselves.<\/p>\n Since the return after the winter break, Celtic have not conceded a goal.<\/p>\n Not one lapse in concentration, not one shot dropped and not one dodgy kick out to put the defence under pressure.<\/p>\n Whatever way you look at it, the defence deserves as much praise as the attack.<\/p>\n \n More importantly, the confidence in the team ahead of the Valencia game might just be the difference as Celtic look to get enough to make the second leg at least interesting, and dare I say, even comfortable ?<\/p>\n \n Whats the difference between a Celtic supporter and a “rangers ” supporter ?<\/p>\n Apart from looks, intelligence and tolerance, that is ?<\/p>\n We weren’t paranoid enough, whereas they are bordering on hysteria.<\/p>\n Their panic, now that it appears they’ll have to wait another 55 years to get their 55th title is becoming more and more audible each day.<\/p>\n Their scattergun approach to finding someone, or something to blame is mpore deserving of pity than scorn, and their friends in the media are promoting it as though there was actually somthing in their wailing.<\/p>\n Gordon Waddell, the chief football writer at the struggling Sunday Mail..the two facts may be linked..had a go at Tom Boyd…<\/p>\n \n Interesting difference in the language used by\u00a0Brendan Rodgers<\/a>\u00a0and Tom Boyd talking about refs.<\/em><\/p>\n Rodgers wants help for them, suggesting maybe bringing it in from other countries while working on raising standards.<\/em><\/p>\n Boyd, on the other hand, wants them to be \u2018neutral\u2019. Meaning he believes the current lot have a bias, one way or the other \u2013 but especially the other, eh, Tom?<\/em><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/DzDde_DWwAEebLV.jpg\")
