After Celtic’s defeat to Hearts, the fans will be wondering exactly how on earth a team that was scudding Aberdeen 6-0 and beating Feyenoord midweek can turn in such a poor performance.
It really is strange how inconsistent the team has been over the past few weeks.
Brendan Rodgers told how he lost it at halftime when Celtic were trailing against St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park.
There didn’t seem to be any of that yesterday. In fact, Rodgers’ press conference actually raised more questions than it answered.
The lack of fire in the team was evident yesterday but the following video that was shared on social media shows that the fire certainly wasn’t missing from Callum McGregor.

The Celtic captain looked annoyed, frustrated and downright angry as he addressed his teammates on the Parkhead pitch.
Seasoned pros like Joe Hart and James Forrest could stand and watch as Alexandro Bernabei and Hyeongyu Oh skulked behind the Celtic captain.
The team had better heed McGregor’s words because the Rangers game is coming at them like a freight train and if they put in a performance like they did yesterday, the boos they heard at full-time yesterday will sound like a picnic if they allow a Rangers win at Celtic Park.
