Celtic captain Scott Brown feels confident they can secure a record-equalling ninth Scottish Premiership title in a row.
The champions get their trophy defence underway against St Johnstone at Parkhead tomorrow knowing victory this season would match Rangers' 9-in-a-row in the 1990s and Celtic's nine successive titles in the 1960/70s.
Brown says there's a good feeling around the squad ahead of the new campaign.
"That's our aim. We've managed to go eight seasons and we need to push this season the exact same way, we've got the players in this squad, and the manager who's got the belief in us as well that we can go and do it.
"There's always going to be a strong challenge - Rangers, Aberdeen, Hibs, Hearts, they always push us all the way. It's that pressure we all thrive off.
Brown agreed a new two-year contract with Celtic last season and the veteran midfielder feels he still has plenty to offer.
"I'm a young pup! Still got a few years left.
"I enjoy playing football, I enjoy being about the lads, coming into training daily, and it's something that's been embedded in me the last 13 years, the same drive. It still puts a smile on my face coming here.
"I've got two years left and I've got to try to make the most of them."
