Loved that one to be honest. They were only "Europa League trail blazers" because they got pumped out of Champs league qualifying. Talk about polishing a turd.

See if you think about it in what world are Celtic winning the competition over Inter or Man U (amongst a few others). Utter delusion from their brainwashed fans but so called sports journalists? I mean seriously?They all actually thought the Tim's were going to win the Europa League. European trailblazers??? That made me chuckle.
That is because we all tend to believe the shit that is put in news papers.To be fair their predictions were what most were saying. Hardly anyone I know thought we would win in Braga and the vast majority thought Celtic would beat Copenhagen quite comfortably.
How both games actually turned out though would have sickened the usual suspects. Which is nice.
A full set of muppetsAll jokes aside - 0 out of 14 correct results (not scorelines...results!) is truly shocking from a team of supposed pundits.
What these pricks have forgotten is that the tramps have never won a post-qualifying game in Europe in 16 years when they put out Blackburn Rovers. Since Gerrard arrived we have played 30 games in Europe, lost only 3, all by a single goal. We are the first club to reach the last 16 from the Q1 and by the time we complete the Leverkusen ties we will have played 18 games in Europe this season, a record (Wolves can beat it if they reach the semis). We are a different beast in Europe. And once we fnd a way of applying our European form domestically and we will, those dullard journalists are going to have to change their tune.
Talk about towing the party line, those predictions will have been even more optimistic than the blogger fans.Keith Jackson
The state of Scott Brown’s calf will be Celtic’s biggest concern ahead of this second leg as the skipper is the heartbeat of Neil Lennon’s side on nights like this. But even so, Celtic should have more than enough to make light work of an ordinary Danish outfit.

Celtic could have wrapped the tie up in the first-half in Copenhagen and have plenty of ammunition in attack to take care of the Danes in front of a 60,000 sell-out.

Providing they can produce a repeat of their first half performance in Denmark, this should be a comfortable night and Neil Lennon can look forward to the club’s first last-16 Euro tie since he was in charge against Juventus seven years ago.

Neil Lennon’s men will have too much firepower for the Danes. If they can keep it tight at the back, players like Edouard and Forrest will do their stuff at the other end and see Celtic into the last 16 with something to spare.

Celtic are flying at the minute and look out for them soaring quite comfortably into the last 16.

Celtic should have put the tie to bed in the first half in Denmark but they know they can hurt Copenhagen.

This Celtic team have been Europa League trail blazers this season but it's understandable if there's a little trepidation ahead of this one. It's the same first leg scoreline before Cluj ripped up the script in Champions League qualifying but Neil Lennon's achievers are a different proposition now. The Danes are crafty and organised but it will take more than that to defeat Celtic on home turf. Expect Odsonne Edouard to add to his glowing reputation with another all-action display.

Celtic should already be home and hosed in this tie but that can't be taken as guarantee they'll smack the Danes aside. That being said, their attacking weapons will prove the difference to book a place in the last 16 with minimal anxiety.
Celtic 2 Copenhagen 0
Some absolute gold in this.
