Rodgers bags manager of the month award

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has been named the Scottish Premiership manager of the month for October.

Sky Sports News have confirmed that Rodgers has claimed the award following the Hoops’ impressive form throughout the month.

After a slow start to the campaign, things have picked up for Celtic during October, with the Hoops hitting top form as they close the gap to league leaders Hearts.

Celtic went three from three in the league during October, racking up a total of 15 goals across the course of the games.

The Hoops started the month with an impressive 6-0 demolition of St Johnstone before beating Aberdeen 4-2. They rounded off October with an eye-catching 5-0 win away at Dundee during the week.

Rodgers himself has recently warned Celtic’s rivals that the Hoops are beginning to find their best form now and that could be bad news for the rest of the league.
