Celtic have lost Joe Hart and may well also lose Matt O'Riley, they have to spend big to ensure they come out of this window stronger than they went…
supporters feel. For I too have experienced an unwelcome blast from the past this week, having been floored by Covid. Covid!
There has been an element of leeway afforded to the Celtic board so far in this window, given that the team aren’t facing the prospect of late-July jaunts to Eastern Europe or Scandinavia for Champions League qualifiers, but as time ticks on, anxiety levels are beginning to be cranked up ever so slightly.
He doesn’t quite have that level of dough at his disposal, but Celtic aren’t exactly in the poorhouse either. In relative terms, they are absolutely rolling in it, and fans don’t take too kindly to the wealth they largely pumped into their club being hoarded in bank accounts and spreadsheets instead of being invested in the playing squad.
But even supposing both of those players arrive, that would leave Celtic in roughly the same position as they were at the end of last season, when the league and Scottish Cup double was a highly commendable achievement, but didn’t half paper over some pretty sizeable cracks in the make-up of Rodgers’ squad.
