Brendan Rodgers has the Rangers fans, media and manager all on strings. It makes superb content for the Celtic fans and the Follow Follow piece I have coming out later will prove just how much the Hoops gaffer has broken them.
At first, they couldn’t handle the news that Daizen Maeda was going to be fit for the next Glasgow Derby. After Rodgers announced that the Rangers fans accused the Celtic manager of lying on the toxic platform.
And now, all it took was for Rodgers to say that the next Glasgow Derby was going to be fun and the media have spun that line as an insinuation that the Rangers game is going to be a cakewalk.
Celtic really are having fun with Clement
And bless Philippe Clement. For all the heralding of this guy being the new Ibrox Messiah, he’s not half wet behind the ears when it comes to being a manager in Scotland and dealing with mind-games.

And as you can see from the replies, the Rangers manager and McFarlane got absolutely roasted for taking the Brendan Rodgers bait:
