Brian Laudrup wants Micky Beale to send a side out at Hampden that will attack Celtic for 90 minutes- making them suffer for 90 minutes.

It is unclear how often Laudrup has watched Celtic in the flesh but that sort of approach could be a kamikaze tactic with Ange Postecoglou’s front line bursting with pace.

Routinely Celtic enjoy around 70% possession in domestic matches with three and four goal victories the order of the day in recent weeks.

Averaging more than three goals per game Celtic have built up a 26 goal difference advantage as well as a nine point cushion at the top of the SPFL Premiership.

Despite that Laudrup tells Daily Mail readers:

I make no bones about repeating how impressive the Parkhead club have been under Postecoglou overall. They will be the bookmakers’ favourites on Sunday.

What we haven’t seen, though, is a team really going at them and attempting to make them suffer defensively over a 90-minute game. It will be far from easy to achieve, but Rangers have to think that way.

St Mirren did play a very direct style against Celtic when they won 2-0 in September but that was on the back of a midweek Champions League tie involving a number of factors including the absence of Cameron Carter-Vickers from the Celtic defence.

    No doubt every football fan would like to see their club attack for 90 mins. Why this is ‘printable’ is a mystery.
