Scott Bain has featured in Celtic’s last two matches.
Gordon is the first-choice goalkeeper at Celtic at the moment and is one of the best in his position in the Scottish Premiership.
The 36-year-old former Sunderland goalkeeper, though, was on the substitutes’ bench for the Hoops’ last two games against Airdrieonians and St Mirren.
According to The Scottish Sun, Gordon will be on the bench again this afternoon when Celtic take on Hamilton Academical at Celtic Park in the Scottish Premiership, with Scott Bain set to start in his place.
Celtic boss Rodgers has disclosed the chat he has had with Gordon regarding his current situation in the team.
Rodgers told The Scottish Sun: “I spoke to Craig. That’s respect. We talked at length and I will always communicate with my players.
“It always stabilises any emotion and what they think. I was clear with Craig on what I was doing.”
Open conversation
Bain is a good goalkeeper, and it must be great for the 27-year-old Scotland international that he is getting chances now.
The former Dundee star is doing well at the moment, and based on his performances in the last two games, he doe not deserve to be dropped.
