This approach, which was a hallmark of his successful first tenure at Celtic Park, is set to be a key feature of his management style in his second stint at the club.

Rodgers’ comments indicate a potential shift in playing style from that of his predecessor, Ange Postecoglou. While both managers share a commitment to attacking football, their tactical approaches and player preferences may differ. This could mean that some players who thrived under Postecoglou’s system, such as Maeda and Taylor, may face challenges in adapting to Rodgers’ style.

“What my commitment has always been is to attacking, aggressive football. In my last time here we were able to achieve that, especially playing so many games.

“So I think my commitment is always to be an attacking team, to be an aggressive team and to be a winning team.

“That’s always the promise I make.”

In the coming weeks and months, fans will be watching closely to see how Rodgers’ style of play takes shape on the pitch. His commitment to attacking, aggressive football is a promising sign for the season ahead, and fans will be hoping that this approach will lead to success both domestically and in Europe.

The first time Celtic fans will start to see BrendanBall, it’s not not got the same ring as ‘AngeBall’, will be the 19th of July, in a friendly match.
