Brendan Rodgers, the manager of Celtic, needs to start our best team against St Johnstone. As Sunday shown, he cannot afford to…
We’ll be in Perth early on Saturday night to play St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership. Our goal is to continue our perfect start to the season by gaining three more points. But one focus will be on the unimportant matter of traveling to the Westfalenstadion on Tuesday night to play Borussia Dortmund.
There has been discussion about resting a few players specifically for that game on The Celtic Star and other places, but in my opinion, that is a total non-starter. Even though they have had a poor start to the season, St Johnstone will show to be another formidable opponent. Particularly after they kicked Craig Levein, that elderly football dinosaur, into the long grass, that’s where he’s happiest.

We may not be as good as we were told we were going into Sunday’s Premier Sports Cup match against Falkirk at home. For that reason, I think we should start with our best starting lineup if we want to defeat the Perth Saints.
The Celtic lineup that took the field on Sunday appeared formidable on paper, but games aren’t won or played on paper; instead, we have players making their season debuts, others seeing action for the first time, and players who have been out of form but are predicted to perform far better. To alter the tide of the match and secure a tantalizing semi-final matchup with Aberdeen at Hampden, Celtic needed the arrival of players such as Arne Engels, Greg Taylor, and—above all—Nicolas Kuhn.
Yes, there is a chance that one of our more “important” players could get hurt, but that’s a risk you take with every game you play, so all we can do is hope and pray that nobody gets hurt on our team. In contrast to the Falkirk encounter, when the Celtic manager acknowledged he had made too many changes, Brendan can try to win the game in the first hour and then bench his “big guns.”
Although the St Johnstone game is just as vital as the Dortmund match, we must play our best team and hope to escape unscathed so that we can travel to Germany to face Dortmund’s strength.

The Bundesliga was wise to assign Dortmund a Friday night match to help them prepare for their match against Scotland’s best team. We may have smarter people operating our own league one day. Rather, they assign Celtic a kickoff time in the evening to accommodate their Premier Sport friends. It truly is astounding.
