We've won the title every year and that's been great.[LNB]"This year, things are different again but we are involved in all three competitions and that doesn't always happen at Celtic.[LNB]"It's a big chance to go and have a really successful season."[LNB]O'Dea has made seven first-team appearances this season but is still battling to pin down a regular spot.[LNB]However, the big defender has told Strachan that he is ready and waiting to play his part during what is sure to be a hectic run-in.[LNB]He said: "I feel good at the moment.[LNB]"I'm doing a bit extra in training as I always do and that stands me in good stead when I get chances in the first team."[LNB][LNB]
