Celts can land the big ones now we have got back our big guns

CCV says the stars can align for Bhoys to pick up dream Double

- SCOTT BURNS

BRENDAN RODGERS has all his big stars back and Cameron Carter-Vickers believes Celtic are about to shine now the pressure is on and the Premiership and Scottish Cup are within touching distance.

The big American has returned to the side in recent weeks along with the likes of Callum McGregor and Reo Hatate, giving the champions a massive lift going into the run-in.

CCV believes Celtic are only going to get better, with five crunch Premiership fixtures coming up ahead of a Scottish Cup Final with Rangers.

They take on Dundee, Hearts, Rangers, Kilmarnock and St Mirren after the split and hold a three-point lead at the top.

"We are getting close to our strongest side out there now," the US international said.

"It's always good to come into the last part of the season when you are in full flow and you have a good rhythm about you. That's definitely important for us.

"If you look at our performances throughout the season, not just those three players you've mentioned (him, McGregor, Hatate) but everyone is peaking at the right time. "That's always what you are looking for."

It was no coincidence that Celtic's form tailed off and they didn't have the same conviction cinch when McGregor, Hatate and Carter-Vickers were out. They are now back on the frontline and ready to get their side-firing. Rodgers and the majority of this Celtic squad have the medals and know-how to come through on the home straight.
