Does Kjetil Knutson recall him?Does the Norwegian who oversees Bodo/Glimt still not sound familiar? Well, it should, given that many Celtic fans hold him in high regard.
It goes without saying that we saw Knutson’s sides play a particular brand of effective football when his Bodo/Glimt squad eliminated us from the conference league knockouts two years ago. He is well-respected.
When we were looking to replace Ange Postecoglou, a few people were considering Knutson before we decided to go with Brendan Rodgers. We weren’t the only team tipped to be interested in signing the Norwegian; not too long ago, a number of teams, including our Glasgow rivals, were said to be considering him.
Knutson, on the other hand, has stuck with the Norwegian side and doesn’t appear to be planning to leave anytime soon.
That and the fact that Brendan Rodgers is in charge haven’t stopped some fans from falling in love with the 55-year-old Norwegian.
This was the case just now, when his club’s spectacular team goal against Ajax in the conference league knockout stages left some fans in awe.
Although it was a superb team goal, why are they worrying about a player whose tactical prowess we have only occasionally seen?
Sometimes you do wonder about certain fans. We worry about players who are gone and we get envious of managers who have no relationship to us at all.
Merely a Typical Boy
A regular fan of Celtics who was born and raised in Govan, hidden from the enemy’s shadows. I own a season ticket. Since 1988, I have gone to Celtic games whenever I can. I witnessed my first Celtic game that year. I saw Celtic at their worst when I was a child growing up in the 1990s, and I now cherish the historic success we have now. I wish to continue blogging about this fantastic football club since I enjoy doing so. I have always had a strong passion for writing and began as a hobby. My goal is to one day write as well as my fellow Celtic Star coworkers.
