Brendan Rodgers will be very much in the spotlight on Tuesday when Celtic take on Bayern Munich.

The 3-0 defeat away to Bayern a fortnight ago brought some mild criticism from the hoops support who had had their hopes raised by the 3-0 win away to Anderlecht.

The scoreline in Munich wasn’t unexpected but there were few Celtic players that did themselves justice with the basics proving too much for some.

To quote a previous manager Rodgers took the criticism on the chin and dusted his side down to reach the final of the Betfred Cup then hand out a master-class in the game against Aberdeen.

Rodgers has unflinching belief in his side and his methods, the Irishman won’t be altering his approach despite the criticism from Munich.

Patrick Roberts’ hamstring injury is a clear blow but with a squad carefully built up James Forrest is a more than decent alternative.

After the criticism in Munich some of the players bristled, there was even concerns expressed after the record equalling draw with Killie but once they music plays and the crowd cheers this Celtic side is capable of troubling Bayern and who knows how it could end up?
