Rodgers on Aberdeen 'Luxury' in Celtic Title Fight

It's a title race that's been a bit of a rollercoaster so far this season, but one thing's for sure: Ange Postecoglou and Celtic are still the team to beat.

With a seemingly comfortable lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership, you might think the pressure's off for the Hoops. But you'd be wrong. The Bhoys are facing a serious challenge from a resurgent Aberdeen, who are now breathing down their necks.

The Dons' "Luxury"

After a few seasons of struggling to keep up with the big boys, Aberdeen have turned things around under manager Barry Robson. They're playing some exciting football, and they're finally looking like a real threat to Celtic's dominance.

This new-found confidence has even caught the attention of Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers, who recently described Aberdeen's current form as a "luxury" for the title race.

"They're playing with a lot of freedom," Rodgers said. "They're very good on the counter-attack, and they've got some quality players in their team. It's a luxury for us to be able to have a bit of a buffer, but we know we can't afford to take our foot off the gas."

What's Next for Celtic?

The Hoops are currently four points ahead of the Dons, but with a game in hand. It's still a tight race, and every game is crucial. Celtic will need to keep winning games if they want to maintain their lead and fend off the challenge from Aberdeen.

Rodgers' comments about "luxury" are interesting. They show that he knows the Dons are a real threat, and that Celtic need to be at their best to stay ahead.

It's going to be a tense and exciting finish to the season, and both teams will be giving it their all. Will Celtic manage to keep the Dons at bay and secure the title? Or will Aberdeen pull off a massive upset and dethrone the champions? Only time will tell.
