Celtic are potentially 90 minutes away from completing a domestic Treble.
The Bhoys face Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final as they look to complete a clean sweep of trophies.
If successful, Brendan Rodgers will become the first Celtic manager to win three domestic Trebles, going ahead of legendary boss Jock Stein.
Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin ‘had a go’ at his players in the build up to the final following their dramatic end of season collapse that saw them drop from third to fifth.
Although Celtic hammered Aberdeen just a few weeks ago, the cup final is a different ball game and with that in mind, Rodgers has named his starting XI and Hoops fans are fuming at one key call he has made.
Brendan Rodgers names unchanged Celtic side for Scottish Cup final
All eyes were on whether or not James Forrest would start. Perhaps to some people’s surprise, Forrest has been named on the bench and Nicolas Kuhn has retained his spot in the starting XI.
In fact, the Celtic manager has named an unchanged XI from the team that drew against St Mirren, with Paulo Bernardo getting the nod over Luke McCowan to fill the position usually occupied by Reo Hatate.
Greg Taylor also starts on what could be his final appearance for the club, with Rodgers still hopeful that Taylor will stay.
What annoyed fans more though was that Maik Nawrocki wasn’t even included in the squad.

Only one topic was on Celtic fans’ mind and that was Nawrocki’s absence from the squad entirely.
Nawrocki impressed against Aberdeen but hasn’t featured since and Hoops fans are fuming with the call.
Kierannvd said: “Nawrocki not even on the bench. Best CB behind CCV.”
Liam.cfc.67 added: “Give Nawrocki and Yang a chance ffs.”
Reece_Graham1888 commented: “#FreeNawrocki.”
