Brendan Rodgers takes his side to Dundee tomorrow bhoyed up by the stunning performance against Manchester City.

Moussa Dembele has taken up most of the headlines with his two goal performance against Pep Guardiola’s side with Arsenal and City joining Barcelona and Real Madrid in the race to sign the hoops striker.

Despite the plaudits of a thrilling European performance Dundee will stand no ceremony when the lunchtime match kicks off.

Rodgers is full of respect for the Scottish game and will demand the same level of performance from his players as ‘welcomed’ City to Celtic Park.

“The players are coming off such a high but if you want to have that winning mentality, it doesn’t matter where you go, you have to get the job done,” the Irishman said.

“For us, it is about recovering, the (City) game is gone. We put in a great performance in the game, it was a great night, but it is on to the next game now. The focus and intensity has to be away at Dundee.

“We need another good performance that can gain us a result and then we can close up to go away on international duty.

“Like all teams up here, they are never easy games, they are going to make it very tough. We will respect them like we did Manchester City.

“It is always about us, how we impose our style and intensity into the game and if we do that we always have a chance of winning games.”
