We’ve got the ability to compete with Dortmund. We’ve got to have the belief…
Tuesday night will see us face our biggest challenge of the season when we face Borussia Dortmund in Germany. The Germans are formidable opponents and of course reached last year’s final so we will have our work cut out, that’s not in doubt.
This season however has seen us hit top form under Brendan Rodgers and we look as organised and free flowing as we’ve been in years. We’ve also been scoring goals, while looking very secure at the back, but as I’ve said, that will be put to the test in Dortmund as the Germans will provide us with our toughest test of the campaign so far.
We’ve added quality to our ranks in the transfer window and that is starting to show in our performances as our squad depth is the best it’s been in a while, so it’s little wonder we are producing great results and performances on the park.
Having quality and ability is great, but all good teams also have another great trait and that is the belief. The belief that they can win every game they play no matter the opposition. That’s just as important as ability.
Scottish club sides such as ourselves, as well as the international side have been guilty for some time now of seeing themselves as inferior to tougher opposition and think they are beaten before a ball is kicked.
That belief and arrogance is something that’s been missing from our mindset for quite some time now, and it’s time we stopped that inferiority complex and went into games such as this with the belief we can win.
Let’s add that belief to our undoubted ability starting on Tuesday night, and we might just get the positive result we crave so much.
Just an Ordinary Bhoy
Relax guys! Let’s walk first!
