What the world's biggest stars have said about Celtic Park as Champions League excitement builds

Hamish talks Champions League football today with a look at what the world's biggest stars have said about playing at Celtic Park.

[@matthewrossi3498]

Was at the Man Utd home game & when Nakamura scored that free kick the place went bonkers. Was also at 2 of the home AC Milan games...great memories! HH 🍀

[@timdowney5576]

That was one of my favorite goals EVER! The lad was a long shot legend. My da and I had tears of joy after watching that goal. HH🇮🇪🇺🇲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@seanmcmanus1396]

There’s been so many electric moments in the stadium. But one game that sticks out to me, and often gets forgotten. Is against Shaktar in 2007 when Donati scores at the end.

[@descendingforth]

What a club and what an atmosphere Celtic Park has. Definitely the best atmosphere in Europe.

When you hear the Champions league anthem in a full Celtic Park its an incredible feeling. Up there with the whole stadium singing YNWA for me 😍

That’s a Liverpool FC song.

I just love Celtic, I'm excited to see them in UCL. Hope to see a group ( Frankfurt/ Sevilla/ Sporting Lisbon/ Celtic)

[@thomashealey5007]

I would take that group

[@markmcloughlin1783]

Lennon got some great wins in Europe as the Celtic manager...

[@baz6004]

I was there when we beat Barca at Celtic Park. I always say it was the greatest night of my life. And no joke, my dog actually died earlier that day. That's how great that night was.

[@Bobby-xr4bo]

I just hope oor players give everything they’ve got in every game..win lose or draw.. leave everything out on that park when the final whistle blows

[@lubo25]

Jota is one of those players that really turns up when the crowd are lively. Kyogo's movement is top shelf. Midfield full of running. Hope we get the pot 1 team at home in the first game.

[@liammacfarlane4712]

[@timanon7149]

I was at the bayern Munich match and they absolutely did celebrate the draw like they'd won the UCL. Fact.

[@Colgan1]

I am not Scottish myself. My grandparents are/were. I have never been to Celtic Park. I would love to go. I would love to see the museum too. I have family history in that club, my great great Grandad, my Grandads Grandad was the trainer of Celtic while Will Maley was manager, we have a Scottish Cup medal from the 30s and pictures of my Grandad as a baby with his grandmother on the pitch. My Great great Grandad was called Willie Quinn.

PSV will hopefully join us.

[@nightsatlynrecords]

I dunno, I kinda want Rangers through, means more potential of other Scottish teams in Europe going forward if we both do well and of course, small small change we draw them one day in the CL knockouts

[@DonnyTinyHands]

@@nightsatlynrecords so you want them to get that CL money 🤡

[@ryanfarrell153]

@@DonnyTinyHands I agree with the other fella. If they dont get in and we win the league, the excuse will be "but you had the CL money and we didn't". We'll beat them anyway. The better Scottish teams get the more exposure we get in the Scottish league

[@DonnyTinyHands]

@@ryanfarrell153 they have some money, remember the £300 billion they got for losing the final.

[@nightsatlynrecords]

@@DonnyTinyHands Ya I do, cause along with more european football for us, means for tv time and furthermore, a better coefficient for other scottish teams, bringing the standard up, making us more prepared each week as we play better and better opponents domestically. We need both teams to do well, but other guys right, Celtic will always come out on top so let them have their run

[@thesunnysheepguy]

Excellant compilation. All the players and coaches should watch this every year. Speaks volumes. 👏👏👏

A few weeks after the Bayern Munich match, I was at CP to watch the game against MWell, there were BM fans in the Social club before and after the game, they came back over to sample the atmosphere once again and made lots of friends. Ive seen this before after we played other teams, I bet a few on here have seen this too over the years.

@@Haggis_67 I didn't think they were. But Hamish mentioned them, so I second guessed myself. Please excuse me. I'm American. I follow Celtic in Europe, and MLS domestically. Admittedly, I only follow the progress of European clubs which feature my countrymen. Ergo, I've become an ad hoc Leeds fan... But that's as far as I give a damn about the EPL. Do us a favor and throw your support behind the Stars and Stripes when we play England in Qatar. They've never beaten us in the WC, and it would be fantastic to maintain the status quo.

@@jimmyteephd8242 For a country which hasn't won anything since before bell bottom jeans were fashionable, they certainly have got an inflated opinion of their own quality, haven't they? And if I hear much more talk about the EPL being "by far the best league in the world", I'm gonna puke. Several glamour clubs came over here to play against the rustics from MLS, and got their noses bloodied. Galaxy ran riot over Man City, if memory serves. English fans were saying, "Fine - but City were playing reserves". Well, so were Galaxy. Half the squad they fielded were playing in the American second division eight months ago.

[@Theagchm]

The Bayern game... I remember it well. Celtic should have won that game - absolute stonewall penalty denied....ever Bayern player froze because they knew it was a pen! Unfortunately the Euro ref had the usual Euro script - nae penalties for Scottish teams. We were the better team and at that time Parkhead was the most feared ground in Europe. Unfortunately since then...........

I know we can't compete money wise with the top clubs in Europe but when the ref blows that whistle it's eleven vs eleven and we're woefully underachieving in Europe and that's got to change or there'll be no point going into European competition any more. I know some won't agree with me but I'm sick of being the whipping boys in Europe.

All the top teams in Europe use a DM, bar none. Does Ange think he knows better than them? We will be the only team in the competition without a defensive midfielder/ball winner on the pitch.
