CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

So he's got the task today of getting on the half-turn and trying to get Rangers playing.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

So I understand Raskin is a loss, but what an opportunity for Connor Barron again.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

you always look at match winners in these fixtures Yusuf Chirmiti has had criticism at times he's shown what he can do though goes without saying Danny Rule could do with him having one of his bigger afternoons yeah well last time out here he was fantastic on the day so he'll be coming into this game with confidence I think at the same time Celtic defenders will know if they do give him a sniff especially in these sort of at this environment where he has shown over the course of a season that he can take his chances

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

You're expecting a big performance.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

The price tag's always going to be a talking point.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

The goal return hasn't matched that.

Superscoreboard
CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

There's no getting away from that.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

But in the big games, whether it's against Celtic or Hearts, he's been the go-to man for Rangers.

Superscoreboard
CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

Yeah, there's no getting away, he is the best instinctive finisher that they have, but in a game like this with such magnitude and what's lying ahead for Celtic, if they were to win today, you need every man out of possession doing their work for the team, and in actual, just can't get to the levels, because he hasn't played enough, he hasn't fit enough, but what you can rely on is him coming on, maybe the last 15-20 minutes of the game, if there's a chance created for him, you would put your hat on him scoring, so...

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

I think the Celtic have two players in an actual in James Forrest who you would expect to see in the latter stages of the game who we've seen over the course of the last couple of months can come on and impact the game It is impossible to not analyse James Tavernier on days like this he's played in so many of these games Scott he's had some big moments in them he's been criticised loads of times in them as well and this will be his last one today It'll be his last one and yes he's had some memorable ones but he's also been at fault for a lot of goals coming in at the back post on his blind side

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

You look at Monday defensively, I've felt at times he could have done better.

Superscoreboard
CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

So he is the captain.

Superscoreboard
CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

He scored some out of goals for Rangers.

Superscoreboard
CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

But I think today, first and foremost, he has to go out and defend properly because Rangers, looking throughout their team, they're not a team full of confidence off the back of the two defeats.

There's no hiding place today.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

There's no hiding place in this fixture.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

Yeah, well, what I did notice on the way into the stadium, the police presence was tenfold what there was at Ibex that day.

CELTIC V RANGERS LIVE | SUNDAY 10TH MAY

We want the football to do the talking.
