Brendan Rodgers post match | St mirren vs Celtic 0 - 3 | sky sports #celticfc #parkhead #football

Brendon what plays you most about today's win I think the attitude and the and the conditions was was very good um start of the game well um good control of the game good connections all the way through the team and and obviously we get the the first goal from that when you play against that system it's very much a game of switching the play and we did that very very well so um so yeah now I scored two really good goals or three really good goals and I think the uh the third one as well was was particularly play him with the runs and against that sort of back five system and and Ali finishes it really well so so I think overall we played this system very very well concentration was good in really difficult conditions and uh and kept the clean sheet a theme this season in all your games has been early goals and fast starts is is that something that pleases you most when you're not giving any team anything to hang on to at the minute well that's the mentality that's the um CU obviously I think the the game uh probably today from St Miram was to you know restri maybe us to some counter attacks and uh or for them to have counterattacks and and set pieces but we gave away very few the set pieces we had to defend we defended really really well against a big team and uh and didn't have too many counterattacks against us so that tells you the team very much connected and concentrated and had that conviction when we when we pressed the game when you got the third goal as well you had you were in so much control but was just a case of killing it off and making sure that that was it done yeah cuz everyone will tell you two n can be dangerous score line especially gets to 2-1 and then the other team have nothing to lose but uh but no but we had good control at 2-0 um got into some really good areas in the final third and didn't just capitalize on that but uh yeah the third goal was important for us it was a very good goal how we moved the ball how we made the runs to clear the space and then uh and as I said Ali's finish was a was a great finish having lifting over the keeper getting the goals from Midfield yet again hatti McGregor another fantastic strike spread of goals and maybe showing that everyone else is stepping up to the mark would that be fair yeah I think it's how I like my teams to to operate you know we need goals from everywhere can't be just the strikers and and Wingers so Midfield players coming into the game K another great strike um you know he he tracks the game really well he comes through the pitch uh as we move and obviously some controlling players can stand still and then when the ball gets comes out they're maybe 40 yards from goal but he tracks the game really well comes with and then when it gets to him he has a great touch and finish and he shows his his quality so uh so yeah Midfield players scoring is is always important as well as the offensive players we spoke about maty before the game how far down the line are you in terms of bringing in Replacements and of that quality that you mentioned well I think that we'll we'll hopefully fingers crossed get that this week I think we have uh we uh we have uh options that uh hopefully will will be close and and and and get into the the field but I think as long as we can get that into the club by next Friday then uh I'll be really really pleased groups performing well but uh we want to strengthen that just finally on that then you've spoken about the Benchmark not just being about domestic football so saying that would this be a big week for the club giving you have European football to come after the international break you don't need to build it up look we we know what we want we know we want to improve we have to as a club so uh so yeah so hopefully we can do that
