    Europe is over, are you confident of a treble?

    While we all hope for a treble, I doubt we'll actually win one. Given that they are so rare in our history, it seems to be an expectation for some and that is baffling.

    I feel that we have been spoiled by success in some ways. Just because Rangers are dead, doesn't mean that we have any guarantee of all three domestic trophies. Plenty of teams that aren't the dead club have put us out of the cups, even when Rangers were alive.

    From comments I've read this season, along with quips from pundits and commentators, a treble seems to have been spoken about often as some sort of atonement for the European campaign. It isn't. If we manage to win a treble, it'll be a fantastic achievement and one that any Celtic manager in charge should be lauded for.

    We should still be able to win the three with the players we have but I've no confidence in deila at the moment. He won me over last season eventually but this season has been grim.

    Dont think we have the squad to win a treble.

    Our cover in defence and up front is poor.

    Treble's involve a lot of luck. We are completely capable, but not sure I would say I am confident. Look at last year. We had plenty momentum and seemed well on our way and then......well, you know.

    Aye, theres nobody to worry us but obviously easier said than done, always the chance that a decision or 2 can cost you so you need a wee bit of luck.

    11v11 yes we should get all three.

    But if the refs step in then the double could be it.

    No. In Cup, we'll come up against a side who'll park the bus and catch us on the break. The type of team we struggle against.

    I was confident last year until the honest mistake.

    Sometimes our fate is in the hands of others.

    Confident of a treble, well kinda confident, but still not convinced with a lot of our players, and deffo not confident in our Manager and his assistants. I love the Celtic, I love my club, but as we stand we only, and just only have the strength to lead in Scottish football. It's not where I want to see this great club of ours

    What he said.

    If we get too close to the Treble there's a fair chance of another Josh Meekings moment occurring.

    I really hope we win the treble too. One small side reason is that if we do, history will be much kinder to Deila than some of the utter bile spouted against him and John Collins online.

    If we were to win a treble it would go a long way with regards to the confidence of the players, and instill a proper winners mentality, something we have lacked in Europe this season.

    A treble would be monumental for this team going forward and I think it would settle the nerves going into the qualifiers next season.

    League- 100%, no problems.

    Cups- I think we'll only win one, not sure which, and I'm not gonna play the referee/honest mistake card. Genuinely think we will get knocked out fair and square via a * performance somewhere.

    One thing under Deila we've been consistently strong, and that's the cups..

    We'll win the league, so barring the honest mistake, we have every chance and won't be far off..

    I'm never confident of a treble but it's what we should be striving for.

    Moreso than ever.

    Went for the treble option. Why not?
