Just In: Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers brushes off grumpy Philippe Clement after disrespect claims

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers brushes off grumpy Philippe Clement after disrespect claims

Brendan Rodgers, the manager of Celtic,

refuted allegations that he showed disdain for Rangers during a press conference over the weekend. Following the team’s 3-0 victory over Hearts at Celtic Park,

Aaron Rodgers expressed his excitement for a productive training week and “a bit of fun” in the derby on Saturday.

Noticing that Rodgers was not being “respectful” with his remarks, Philippe Clement took offense.

Chris Sutton thinks the Rangers manager may be feeling pressured, given his somewhat exaggerated response.

Even while some media outlets attempted to portray it as a verbal sparring match,

it was evident that Rodgers’ remarks had been misinterpreted and did not accurately represent his views.

The Celtic manager addressed that in today’s pre-game press conference,

emphasizing that he never meant for anyone to feel denigrated.

Regarding Brendan Rodgers’ remarks that irritated Philippe Clement” Anyone who was at my press conference would have sensed how it was said,” he stated [Clyde 1].

The response to that is completely unjustified and devoid of any context.

These games are tough and competitive, but that’s all I’ve ever said about them.

I adore the event, which is among the most famous in global sports.

It’s a major factor in my presence here. I feel really proud and privileged to be Celtic’s manager during a Rangers game.

The atmosphere surrounding this game is very incredible.

“I’ve read a few headlines about rudeness and other things, but they are completely unfounded.

It was never uttered in that particular circumstance.

I would never be the one to treat a different management or team disrespectfully. That must be a part of the preparation for you guys.

No need for wind-ups with Rodgers. Rodgers’ clarification of his remarks is spot on.

The notion he attempted to put out makes little sense because it would be absurd to try to fire up Rangers before a derby.

Celtic has a long history of speaking their mind on the field.

The team has supported everything in games under Rodgers and Ange Postecoglou,

as opposed to making flimsy claims to inflame a rivalry in the media.

I hope tomorrow brings more of that. Regardless of how rivals feel,

fun is certain if Celtic scores a lot of goals and advances significantly toward the title.
