"I don't think I could put that kind of pressure on myself," he said. "I just want to take things week by week and let it add up come the end of the term. I'll have a look back then and see how I have done, but I would have to say that when it gets to the end of the campaign, I want to be reflecting on a season in which we have won the league and hopefully some other silverware. That for me is more important than bettering the 31 goals as it is all about making Celtic as successful a team as we can be."

"This club as a whole is about winning," he continued. "I want to make it four-in-a-row by getting the title but I'm greedy, I'd like the League Cup and the Scottish Cup as well because I think it would be a really special achievement to win a Treble. It is something that is rarely done and it would be a momentous achievement."

"It isn't something you get the chance to do often," he enthused "but we approach every game we play trying to win it and we have managed to get ourselves into the semi-final of the League Cup. That'll be a hard one for us, but I'd love to win everything we could this season."

He's confident that this can be a great season for Celtic and that glory and goals for himself will naturally be a part of that "Getting goals is nice and you always feel confident when you are hitting the back of the net but lifting the league title is a special feeling for everybody connected with the club and we know every season that is the big prize we have to go for."

"At the start of the season when goals weren't coming, I don't think it was ever about confidence, more about fitness. As soon as that started to come back then so did the goals." said the Celtic number seven "When you're tired you make mistakes and you don't do things in the right way and at the start of the season that's what was happening. But once I got my fitness up, my mind was right and I feel that things have been falling into place."

The Australian forward has credited the Celtic defence for the teams great showing so far this season and especially Gary Caldwell. Caldwell hit a fantastic vein of form in last season's title run-in and he has carried that form into this season to go from zero to cult hero in the eyes of the supporters "He has belief in himself and for all the slagging he got at times last season he just put his head down and got on with it," said McDonald of the central defender affectionally known as 'heid' by the fans "In the dressing room with us he would just have a good joke and a laugh about it at his own expense. With some people you would say that is just a deflector but with him he genuinely didn't let it get to him."

"He would try the same passes again even if they didn't come off for him and his attitude is fantastic." Scott continued "Gary is a great guy in the dressing room and he's been outstanding this season. He is a rock at the back and the gaffer has often said that he takes anything on his shoulders. He doesn't get the credit he deserves for being able to see a pass and play the ball out of defence. He's another one who is not that old and I think he will get even better in the years to come."
