Celtic fans are left frustrated with the January transfer window, which failed to deliver the desired reinforcements.
Despite the arrivals of Nicolas Kuhn and Adam Idah, the absence of significant signings continues to disappoint Parkhead faithful. Former Celtic player Joe Ledley recently expressed his opinion that Brendan Rodgers hasn’t been provided with the squad he desires since his return to Glasgow’s east end.
Ledley commented on Rodgers’ remarkable achievements at Celtic but suggested that the current team might not be the one the manager wants.
He hopes that future transfer windows will provide Rodgers with the opportunity to bring in additional players, emphasizing Rodgers’ capability to achieve success even with the current squad.
Rodgers, aiming for a domestic double this season, faces a tight race in the Scottish Premiership, trailing by five points with a game in hand.
The upcoming match against Motherwell at Fir Park poses a significant challenge, and the outcome may determine Celtic’s ability to compete for the title. Former Celtic striker Andy Walker expresses confusion over the club’s decision not to reinforce the squad further in January, labeling it a “gamble” following the release of the club’s interim report.
Walker questions Celtic’s strategy, stating that they had a month to recognize Rangers’ improvement under their manager. Despite acknowledging Celtic’s well-run operations and successful player trading model, Walker criticizes the decision to take a risk by not strengthening the squad, particularly with Rangers improving.
He emphasizes the importance of securing the title and questions why Celtic didn’t make efforts to bring in players of pedigree to enhance their chances.
While the left-back position remains a concern due to the lack of reinforcements, the situation is what it is, and Celtic must focus on securing a morale-boosting victory against Motherwell in their upcoming match.
