‘NOT IN A GOOD PLACE,’ KILLIE AIM TO ADD TO CELTIC UNREST

0

CELTIC are “not in a good place” and Kilmarnock are determined to add to their off-field problems by inflicting misery at Rugby Park on Sunday.

The shocking Champions League failure against Kairat Almaty, a team rated 311th in UEFA rankings, plus a massive misfire in the summer transfer market has enraged Hoops fans.

Now there is talk of a protest among the champions’ followers to stay away from the first 10 minutes of the match in Ayrshire, according to a report in the Daily Record.

Brendan Rodgers’ team are in pole position in the Premiership with a superior goal difference to Hearts and are unbeaten after their first four league games, beating St Mirren 1-0, Aberdeen 2-0 and Livingston 3-0 while drawing 0-0 in a dismal derby at Ibrox.

Killie new boy Djenairo Daniels insists his team can make the most of the unrest among the visitors’ camp.

The Dutchman joined the club in the summer and has already claimed four goals with the side drawing all four of their league outings.
Daniels said: “Celtic are not in a good place at the moment and we WILL take advantage of that.

“They are a big club, big history and we are the underdogs, but we take that and we’ll show them what we’re about.

“We’re doing well, we have a good team and good team spirit and that’s what it’s all about.”

The well-travelled 23-year-old has already played in his homeland, Italy, Canada, Portugal, Iceland, Ireland and now Scotland.

Daniels, speaking to Sky Sports who will beam the action live from the 3pm kick-off, added: “Kilmarnock is the right choice for me to improve myself.
“It’s not only Celtic and Rangers. They are obviously big teams, but Kilmarnock is also a big team and we can show them what we’re about and we’re going to do that on Sunday.

“Kilmarnock is a good team and from here, I can only sky rocket.

“The coach is really good, he has helped me a lot and has given me the confidence.”
