Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers insists he will maintain his ‘aggressive’ philosophyBy Gavin McCafferty, PABrendan Rodgers feels Celtic can be more compact in their latest Champions League encounter, but he insisted he would never change his approach. Rodgers hopes they can learn lessons from their German trip and be tighter in certain moments, but his commitment to front-foot football remains firm. “Listen, I started coaching many, many years ago, over 25 years ago, and from the very beginning my coaching has always been aggressive. And until the day I finish it will be aggressive, and that’s how it will be,” said Rodgers, who will again be without injured defenders Cameron Carter-Vickers and Greg Taylor. “My idea is to have an attacking philosophy, which is about defending well, and defending when you haven’t got the ball, and being really aggressive and really strong in closing spaces.
