Dessers

We're looking forward to the game. It would be incredible and a dream to score the winning goal. When you sign here, you get to know the Old Firm and scoring in this game is something I dream about. I hope tomorrow will be my first goal in an Old Firm game. There are no Rangers fans present, which is a shame. These are moments you want to share with the fans, but things are the way they are. As players, we can't change much, that's something for someone else to worry about, but we have to concentrate on what we need to do. I expect it to be an intense afternoon, but I like that. We played Betis a few weeks ago and I like these games where everyone is against you and I think the team likes it too.

Brendar Rodgers!

These games are incredible, it's an iconic game to be involved in and obviously we got a great result at Ibrox at the start of the season, and now we're in front of our own fans, which makes us very excited. It's also important for the performance. We're coming off the back of two very good wins and with a lot more urgency and intensity, especially in the last game against Dundee, which could have been a very, very tricky game for us. We went there and really dominated the game, hardly missed any chances and were relentless in our attacking mentality. So we go into the game in a good position and we want to keep it that way. If you can make a big contribution in the most important games, that will be remembered at club level, just as it is here. It's a fantastic game to be involved in, the atmosphere will be electric tomorrow and that's what I'm really looking forward to. But it's up to us, once again, to provide the urgency and intensity needed to win the game. This spreads from the stands to the pitch and can be a great stimulus for the players. That emotion, that real positivity, is something Celtic have plenty of - that relationship between the fans and the players, and that encouragement. As you saw, Stephen came on against Feyenoord and played very, very well. I really enjoyed watching him. I brought him with me as a young player when I was here for the first time, and he was just a kid, but he's matured a lot. Maybe he didn't play as much as he would have liked, but only because of the form of Cam and Carl Starfelt when he was here, so that was the challenge for him. But he's always there as a loyal support to play off and I know I can rely on him when I put him on the pitch, so if he gets the chance to play, I have every faith that he'll be able to perform."
