He said he thinks Celtic are the best team in the country Willy, based off 60 minutes in a 1-0 loss at Ibrox and a 1-1 draw in a dead rubber (not my words, his). You reckon he’s right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did mention the next game, but he did actually say that Celtic are still the best team in the country. Point of food etiquette order, do not put batter round your, or my, mince. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The response to the problems was obviously a major factor, but I don’t think there’s been that much difference in how many problems have actually occurred. both teams have had daft players break protocol. both had players ruled ineligible by close contact rules despite being negative both teams have had players testing positive for covid etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the management teams were swapped then Celtic would have romped to the title too. Kennedy can't come out and say that though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we take only league games into account, the following players have missed out through injury Katic has missed the entire season Balogun has missed 5 matches Tavernier has missed 5 matches Aribo has missed 7 matches Jack has missed 15 matches Arfield has missed 8 matches Roofe has missed 8 matches That's a lot of key players missing for large portions of the season. I think that shows how good our squad actually is and puts to bed this myth that Celtic have been without key players all season and Rangers haven't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennedy can't come out and say that though. I can see some logic behind this, but surely the management team have to be factored into how good a team is as well and not just the players? Then if you're basing it purely on a player's ability, even then I think it would be fairly close. I could see maybe 1 Celtic player getting into our back 5 (Ajer). Midfield I'd say Rangers edge it as well. It's only the forward areas that it's more even but I'd argue we have a bit more depth as out with the starters for Celtic (Edouard, Elyounoussi and now likely Forrest) they don't have much that can make an impact.
