He shouldn't be here then. This isnt a first class Celtic team or even one that looks amazing next to ours like back in the 2016-2018 days.
The main difference is they have a belief they are going to win and go out and try to win the game. We wait for them to go a goal or two up and then try and get back into the game, our comfort zone basically.
But under no circumstances should our manager be accepting a narrow defeat in a cup final or any game against them. Its the narrow defeats against them this season and last (barring the first one under Gio) that has cost us two league titles. We have no reason to fear them and the sooner the players get that out of their heads the better.
They have mauled us twice in about six years and as unacceptable as both of the games were they were quite some time ago in footballing terms. Just find some balls please Rangers, be positive and get after them for a change.
