Barry Ferguson advocates for Brendan Rodgers to commence the ‘grade’ Celtic player in the upcoming match against Aberdeen.

 

Brendan Rodgers faces several significant decisions in anticipation of Celtic’s upcoming match against Aberdeen.


 

 

On Saturday, Celtic demonstrated their superiority over Ross County, with the so-called reserve players showcasing their capabilities through a series of exceptional performances.

 

 

It presents a challenge for the manager; however, it is a welcome dilemma, as he possesses an abundance of talent from which to choose.

 

Rodgers implemented six alterations to the lineup following Celtic’s 1-1 stalemate with Club Brugge earlier in the week.

 

 

However, by the conclusion of the first half during the weekend match, the champions had established a commanding lead of 5-0, seemingly on course for an exceptionally high-scoring outcome.

 

 

The opposition was fortunate that the host team eased their intensity; otherwise, the outcome could have been exceedingly unfavourable for them.

 

 

Four players who were included in the starting eleven—Liam Scales, Luke McCowan, Paulo Bernardo, and Adam Idah—successfully scored.

 

 

 

Barry Ferguson believes that the newcomer in Celtic’s roster is making a compelling case for inclusion. Barry Ferguson asserts that Luke McCowan is “making a compelling argument” to secure a starting position for Celtic in the match against Aberdeen.

 

 

Celtic holds a four-point advantage over Aberdeen, possessing a game in hand, in anticipation of their forthcoming match on Wednesday evening at Pittodrie.

It is widely acknowledged that Callum McGregor will be included in the starting lineup, along with Reo Hatate.

 

 

The primary consideration now revolves around the decision to retain McCowan in the starting eleven for the highly anticipated match against Arne Engels.

 

 

Ferguson commended McCowan for his impressive initiation at Parkhead subsequent to his transfer from Dundee, asserting that he “undoubtedly possesses the quality” to commence the match against Aberdeen, as he conveyed to Go Radio.

 

 

Ferguson remarked, “The squad that Celtic possesses does not significantly impact the situation when six alterations are made.” “Such a multitude of changes has occurred;

 

 

however, the system continues to operate seamlessly, which underscores the quality and depth of talent he possesses in substituting for Hatate and Engels.” Players of high calibre are still being brought in to take their place.

 

 

“One must acknowledge McCowan’s commendable decision to transition from Dundee to Celtic, as it would have been quite effortless for him to adopt a mindset of contentment with merely occupying a bench role and receiving sporadic playing time.”

 

 

“When presented with an opportunity, he effectively advocates for his inclusion in the starting eleven, and he undoubtedly possesses the requisite quality.” There is no question.

 

 

You observed that during the previous season. You are competing against a higher calibre of player. I firmly believe that it elevates one’s performance to a higher level.McCowan’s statistics for Celtic.

 

 

It is important to acknowledge that the 26-year-old was not with Celtic during the summer, which precluded him from participating in a pre-season regimen or acclimating to his new environment.

 

 

He maintained a professional demeanour and demonstrated a strong work ethic for Dundee, participating in eight matches across all competitions, during which he scored three goals and provided six assists.

 

McCowan has emerged from obscurity, acclimated as though he has been a part of this environment for an extended period, and has swiftly garnered the affection of the audience.
