What the managers are saying

Rini Coolen (Rosenborg): “We will try to use the best players available but of course we have to be smart as well, some players will not play the full 90 minutes. Pal Helland came back from injury and is doing well in the last weeks but I will keep him out of this game because he has to be ready for Sunday. All the other players are available so we will have a good squad tomorrow. There will be players in the starting 11 that I can maybe take off a little bit earlier than normal. We have to think about a few things but we want to perform against Celtic. And yes, wed like to show in our last home game against a European team, that we can do better than we have done against European teams.”Brendan Rodgers (Celtic): “Of course, the European game is becoming very difficult for countries like ourselves. So if the likes of ourselves and Rangers can get through, it would be great for the nation, for both clubs, thats what we want. Its still very much our ambitions and I hope we can do that. We go into it and you look after yourselves and your own club. But, for the bigger picture which is important for our football, its great if we can get as many teams as possible into European games.Brendan Rodgers knows a win will boost Celtic’s chances of progressing2
