Brendan Rodgers had a gulf between him and Rangers first time around. If Celtic get it right this summer having been pushed for a spell by the Ibrox club last season, he has a big chance to create another chasm. If Rodgers and Celtic make the right moves over the next couple of months, they have a real chance to both blow Rangers away and also make that elusive mark again when facing the continent’s elite. The template for Celtic is the first-half they produced under Rodgers against Atletico Madrid at home last season. If they make those right transfer moves, that cherished European impact could be realistic and, domestically, they can leave Rangers trailing way behind.
