FUTURE'S
BRIGHT FOR
ROGIC
team, they're going to have
good attackers so we need to be
organised defensively and have
that running right through the side.
They have a lot of good players but
we need to look to nullify them and
focus on our game.
"We have got good players
defensively and going forward.
We have scored goals in the
competition already and we will
need to do that again tonight, along
with working hard as a team to
make sure they don't score,"
Celtic should have the drive,
passion and industry of skipper
Scott Brown back to aid their cause
after the skipper missed almost a
month through a knee injury.
The 30-year-old returned from
the treatment in Saturday's
stalemate with Kilmarnock and
featured for the full 90 minutes,
Although the midfielder sustained
a late knock, when making a timely
tackle to halt a counter-attack
from the Rugby Park side, the
initial prognosis was positive. His
presence will be a massive boost to
the Bhoys, particularly given the
absence of the suspended Nir Bitton
andStefanJohansen,
"He trained all of last week and
he's really important to the team
so it's good to have him back," said
Forrest. "Nir and Stefan have been
a big loss but whoever comes in will
do well.
"In Europe you need your all 11
players working hard and hopefully
we can have everyone raring to go
tonight."
Forrest certainly goes into
tonight's crunch clash brimming
JAMES Forrest reckons the
best is yet to come from Tom
Rogic following the midfielder's
impressive run of form in the
No.10 role for Celtic.
After enduring a torrid time on
the treatment table for the best
part of two years, the Australian
internationalist has shown what
he's capable of on his return to full
fitness, cementing a spot in the
Hoops starting XI and featuring for
his country.
"When he first came here you
could tell that he's a good player,"
said Forrest. "But he's really kicked
on this season and all credit to him.
He has come back really strong
from injury.
"He's good on the ball, he's
technically sound and he can find
a pass. He's done really well this
season and I'm sure he will continue
to maintain that and only get
better".
