After punishing Slovan Bratislava with a 5-1 scoreline on matchday one, there’s genuine excitement about what the Bhoys can produce despite the big step up in the quality of their opponent.
Everyone knows that Dortmund will be by far the most difficult test of Celtic’s season so far. Nine wins from nine is impressive form but Brendan Rodgers’ side are playing away to last term’s Champions League finalists.
Rodgers doesn’t appear to care about reputation. He isn’t afraid to take his team to Germany and have a real go. In fact, he’s vowed to try to impose their attacking game in the same manner as recent matches.
The Celtic boss thinks his side can cause Dortmund problems, score goals, and thrill away supporters.
He said in a press conference after beating St Johnstone: “We’re in a really good way. The performance level is something that I always concentrate on, and obviously, the consequence of that would be results. But I look at the rhythm in the team, I look at the speed in the team, I look at the hunger in the team.
“Listen, we’re going to play a top team on their home patch, but I’m really excited to see how we can play against them. They’re a very good side. They’ve got really good players.“We can go there and look to impose our style in the game. I always say, in every game we play, as long as we try, we press, we attack, and we fight, let’s see where it takes us.
