This time, they’re under the guidance of a familiar face, Brendan Rodgers, who returns with a resolute ambition—to conquer Europe and bring Celtic back into the spotlight.Celtic’s last taste of Champions League success came in 2017 when they triumphed against Anderlecht under Rodgers’ leadership. Fast forward to the present, and the fans are yearning for another taste of glory. But what exactly does Rodgers mean by something significant in Europe?Recently, Rodgers shed light on his vision, declaring, Our overall aim is to be in Europe after Christmas. That’s a goal that resonates with every Celtic supporter. As they prepare to face Feyenoord in Rotterdam, the excitement is palpable. The Champions League anthem, with its spine-tingling notes, has a magical way of making fans believe that anything is possible.However, the road to European success is riddled with challenges. To achieve their post-Christmas objective, Celtic must finish third place or better in their group. It’s no small feat, especially considering their recent Champions League track record.The glory days of Fortress Parkhead seem like a distant memory. Celtic’s home advantage was once their secret weapon against football giants like Juventus, AC Milan, and Manchester United. But in recent times, their European journey has been a rollercoaster, with one group stage win in 2017 breaking a 16-game winless streak.This season, there’s a glimmer of hope. Feyenoord, though formidable, is not an insurmountable obstacle. With further challenges against Atletico Madrid and Lazio looming, balance will be key.Celtic’s approach under Rodgers has been lauded for its attacking flair, even in the face of formidable opposition. While last season’s group stage didn’t yield many wins, it laid the groundwork for improvement. Now, as Rodgers returns, the fans are eager to see if this time will be different.In his previous tenure, Rodgers favored a high-pressing, attacking style, which often led to heavy defeats against football powerhouses. But credit must be given for impressive draws against Manchester City and Borussia Monchengladbach. The quality of opposition was top-notch, and Celtic’s determination shone through.This time, Rodgers may adapt his tactics, bringing in some pragmatism when needed. His experience with Leicester City in Europe showed progress, and Celtic fans are hopeful that lessons learned there will translate to success on the European stage.It’s worth noting that Rodgers’ Leicester City faced Roma, who eventually won the Europa Conference League. This connection to Roma, who also happen to be in Celtic’s Champions League group, adds a twist of fate to the story. Rodgers has hinted at finding the right balance between attacking and pragmatism, which could be crucial, especially in away matches.Celtic fans are holding their breath, hoping that this blend of experience and tactical adaptability will bring them that elusive something in European football after Christmas. With the Champions League anthem as their rallying cry, the journey begins in Rotterdam, and the football world watches with bated breath.
