McGregor: People take winning for granted...we know how hard it is
HE doesn't demand much. Perfection will do. Or, at the very least, as close to it as any football club in history has ventured.
That's what a decade spent at the heart of Celtic's domestic bliss has seared into Callum McGregor. He has learned over all these years that nothing less will do.
As a result, this talismanic skipper has reached a point in his career where he starts off every season believing anything less than a domestic clean sweep will be looked upon as a major disappointment if not a borderline failure.
Tomorrow, at Tannadice, a point would seal a fourth consecutive title and McGregor would get his hands on the Premiership crown for a 10th time.
