Brendan has got to target points not plaudits

ALAN STUBBS reckons Brendan Rodgers will have failed if Celtic don't make the play-off stage of the Champions League.

And the former Parkhead defender is adamant the boss must sacrifice some style as his side chase points on the road after their disaster in Dortmund.

The Parkhead side are gunning for a spot in the February knock-out rounds at the conclusion of their eight-game league phase.

Celtic have three points in the bank having won well on opening night against Slovan Bratislava in Glasgow's East End.

But they were stung by a savage beating from Borussia last time out when hammered 7-1 in the Signal Iduna Park on matchday two.

Rodgers' team return to action after the international break with a top-of-the-table Premiership encounter against Aberdeen.

Victory over the Dons on Saturday would see Celtic move clear of the Reds in the standings and extend a 100 per cent top-flight record into eight games.
