“Still very DISSAPOINTED…..” Celtic Manager Brendan Rodgers Addresses THIS ONE ISSUE DESPITE 6-0 Thrashing of Aberdeen

Celtic Manager Brendan Rodgers Addresses Team Leaks Following 6-0 Thrashing of Aberdeen

Brendan Rodgers, Celtic’s seasoned manager, has publicly addressed the recurring issue of team leaks, expressing disappointment and frustration after his side’s resounding 6-0 victory over Aberdeen in the Premier Sports Cup semi-final.

The Premiership champions showcased their prowess, demolishing Aberdeen, who had matched Celtic’s 28 league points. Daizen Maeda stole the show with a hat-trick and an assist for Kyogo. Cameron Carter-Vickers and Arne Engels also found the net, sealing Celtic’s spot in next month’s final against either Motherwell or Rangers.

Rodgers’ ire was directed at the individual responsible for leaking his team selections, which had been posted online prior to the match. This incident follows a similar leak midweek, before Celtic’s 2-0 win over Dundee.

“It’s clearly disappointing,” Rodgers said. “Modern football has no secrets, but it’s unsettling when sensitive information gets out. If it’s coming from Celtic supporters, they’re not true fans. It might boost someone’s ego, but it doesn’t help the team.”

Rodgers drew from past experiences, highlighting how leaked information had aided his preparations. “When I’ve learned about leaks, I’ve adapted my strategy. We’ve even changed our shape to counter the opposition’s expected formation. It’s helped us win games.”

The Celtic boss remained composed, despite his evident frustration. “I don’t get angry; I’ll find out who’s responsible. If it’s not a Celtic supporter, we’ll investigate.”

During the match, Rodgers received a yellow card for kicking the ball, which he humorously downplayed. “I shouldn’t have fallen! I’ll appeal the yellow card – just joking. I bounced up quickly. Kevin Clancy made a good decision.”

Analyzing the game, Rodgers praised his team’s performance. “Outstanding. We knew Aberdeen would challenge us, but our players brought their A-game. We were ruthless, working the ball well to create space and make runs. The Hampden pitch is perfect for our style.”

Celtic’s convincing win underscores their dominance, and Rodgers’ tactical acumen. As the Premiership leader, Celtic’s consistency will face tests, and the manager must navigate challenges while maintaining team cohesion.
