Good luck with this dude.

As a Celtic fan, you'll probably be a bit excited/ scared by the prospect of taking on the mighty Barcalona in the Champions League draw, I think this is as far as you go this year....

Yeah. When you raise your arms, your delts make a pit of sorts. Try resting it there instead of on your trap.
