Celtic’s loss to Lazio is still being talked about almost 48 hours after the fact. Brendan Rodgers’ team crashed out of the Champions League and all of Europe.

Before the game, Brendan Rodgers made it clear that the team needed to add quality players. But it looks like Lazio have told Celtic where they should be putting their attention when they do decide to make a move.

Jackie McNamara revealed a weakness that the Serie A team was taking advantage of while watching the game in Rome. This weakness was used in both the 2-0 loss and the first game at Celtic Park in September.

McNamara told BBC Sportsound, “I think Lazio set out to hurt Celtic in certain areas from the first game.”

“You could see what they were trying to do between [Liam] Scales and [Greg] Taylor, and also a little last night.

“To be fair to Scales, I think he has done pretty well since he came in.” Taking that next step and getting into Celtic’s first team from Ireland.

“It does take some time.” You can’t just put the team in that level and expect them to be great. That’s what he needs to learn.

“Defensively, they have had trouble in that area.” You won’t find much back-up in the left-back spot.

Many Celtic fans have been unhappy with the left back situation this season. The last few months have been terrible for Greg Taylor since Ange Postecoglou left for Spurs.

There are worries that the Celtic full-back might not make it to Euro 2024 next summer in Germany because of how bad he has been this season.

There’s no question that Celtic needs to make changes in order to compete on the continent. The thing that scared Celtic fans was whether or not the club’s board would be willing to spend the money to do it.

People at Celtic have told them that they should think about selling James McCarthy before the January transfer market opens.

The midfielder, who used to play for the Republic of Ireland, hasn’t played a single minute in the Scottish Premiership this season under Brendan Rodgers. Dean Jones thinks that teams might be interested in him when the transfer market opens.

Jones told GiveMeSport, “It will be interesting to see what door opens for James McCarthy in January.” I’m sure we’ll hear about some links.

“He does feel like Celtic has forgotten about him right now, so I think they need to think about the future and whether he’s a part of it.” Right now, I don’t think it’s likely.”

The strange story of James McCarthy’s time at Celtic

McCarthy was one of the first players to sign a four-year deal with Celtic under Ange Postecouglou. He joined in the summer of 2021.

Even though he only played 42 times for Crystal Palace over three seasons, Celtic gave the 31-year-old a long-term deal.

McCarthy has only played 27 times for the first team in his two seasons with Celtic. They are all under Postecoglou.

Since Brendan Rodgers took over as manager in the summer, he hasn’t played for Celtic in any way.

McCarthy has played for Celtic for 801 minutes, which is just over 29 minutes per game on average. (Transfer Market)

That’s a lot of money for one person to spend, at £14,000 a week [SalarySport]. It’s easy to see why McCarthy is one of the players rumored to be leaving Celtic.

What Brendan Rodgers thought about James McCarthy’s time at Celtic

McCarthy recently said that he is leaving the team, which shows that the Celtic boss has a lot of respect for him.

Rodgers told Glagow Live, “It’s a real shame for James because he was a clear Celtic fan as a kid.”

“He was a great player, and I saw him a lot in the Premier League.” He’s a nice guy, but some injuries and other problems have made his time here short, so he will be looking to move on.

Rodgers didn’t try to hide it. Brady’s time at Celtic looks like it’s over. With a little more than 18 months left on his deal, I think Celtic wouldn’t want a big fee, if any at all. They would just want to get rid of him and save money on his salary.

Not so for Jota. He loved his time at Celtic. He made that clear when he left the club, and Brendan Rodgers could ask him about it, so who’s to say he wouldn’t say no?

The rumors that Celtic will sign Jota again aren’t going away any time soon, are they?

Fans loved the Portuguese winger very much at Celtic, and I think it’s safe to say that if he came back, it would be a huge win for the team.

Jota is reportedly being coveted by both Tottenham Hotspur and Celtic. If Celtic were to pursue their interest in him, they would have to deal with competition that would make it impossible for them to do so financially.

The chance that Jota will go back to Celtic

Journalist Mark Guidi, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to think he will be back. When asked if the Treble-winning winger could go back to Glasgow, Guidi says that there is one big problem that would make it hard for any deal to happen.

“I don’t think that’s likely,” Guidi said on The Go Radio Football Show. With the money he’d be making, I think it would make more sense for him to go somewhere else, like England.

“What do you do? Celtic has Palma and Yang, as well as wide players.” Do you really want to bring Jota back if it will hurt those two?”

All the cards are on the table. I really want Jota to come back to Celtic, but I know that won’t happen. Guidi thinks that salaries might be a problem, but even at Spurs, the Portuguese player won’t get the same deal.

In that area, Spurs are stronger than Celtic, but can they emotionally connect with Jota like Celtic can, even with Ange Postecoglou in charge? It seems unlikely to me.

I think Guidi is right, though, which is a shame. I think that the time for Celtic to sign Jota has passed, and he’s more likely to end up in England or on the continent.

Many promising young Celtic players have left the club in pursuit of first-team opportunities within the last decade or so.

The most recent addition to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool squad is Ben Doak, who just departed Celtic for the Reds.

Another player who has been touted as a future superstar but has failed to establish himself at Celtic is Rocco Vata.

However, Celtic let Liam Henderson, another promising young player under Brendan Rodgers’ tutelage, go for Italy in 2018.

The 27-year-old Henderson revealed the actual reasons behind his move from Lennoxtown to the Stadio San Nicola, where he is currently on loan at Palermo, after leaving Glasgow for Bari.

“I always said if I was playing for Celtic every single week it would never have even come into consideration,” Henderson stated in an official Celtic FC podcast.

Because, in my opinion, Celtic is one of the most illustrious football clubs in the world. I mean, it would never have occurred if I was a regular Celtic player.

I had to take the initiative to better myself, though.

Reasons Celtic lost Liam Henderson

The Celtic faithful were enthralled by Henderson. Despite his high club rating, he faced intense competition for a spot on Celtic’s roster after the team had just won the Invincibles Treble.

Henderson had almost no chance of breaking through for Celtic at that moment because to the fantastic play of Scott Brown, Tom Rogic, Callum McGregor, Olivier Ntcham, and Stuart Armstrong.

However, following productive loan stints with Rosenborg and Hibs, Henderson decided to leave Celtic and join Bari after making 37 appearances under Neil Lennon. The step-up to that Celtic team was simply too large.

It’s hard to think that Henderson left Celtic over six years ago, but he and Doak show that the correct decision can lead to success even after leaving Paradise.

“Superior midfielder in Scotland”… Peter Martin asserts that Celtic have a player who surpasses Matt O’Riley.The tremendous benefit of Celtic is that the club is staffed with countless talented players who are all beginning to flourish this season.

One that is readily apparent is Matt O’Riley. The 23-year-old midfielder’s performance in the 2-2 draw at Celtic Park against Atletico Madrid earned him the title of the nation’s finest player.

Additionally, Luis Palma has been showered with praise as the Honduran destroys the Scottish Premier League and the Champions League.

However, none of those three have captured the attention of analyst Peter Martin. Following the observation of Scotland’s qualification for Euro 2024, Martin was ecstatic with the performances of Celtic skipper Callum McGregor for his nation.

Martin stated [PLZ Soccer], “When I observe our midfield trio and the way they operate, I am reminded that McGinn, who is as robust as an ox, runs himself into the ground.”My pick for the most outstanding midfielder in Scotland is Callum McGregor. “He effectively maintains the operation of the group like a well-oiled machine; additionally, we have Scott McTominay.”

Callum McGregor is considered a legend in Celtic. He will shortly depart for Scotland.

McGregor is without a doubt regarded as a legend at Celtic. The fact that he has won seven League Cups, five Scottish Cups, and eight league titles speaks for itself.

Breaking News: ‘project signing’ -Brendan Rodgers confirms the 22-year-old striker is currently considering leaving Celtic amid January transfer window

Celtic fans can’t wait for January to come around so they can see if Brendan Rodgers adds any new players to the team.

That’s what the Celtic boss said: the Hoops need to cut down on their squad. And it looks like one player is already looking for a way out.

This summer, a record number of teams signed young Marco Tilio from the Australian A-League. It cost Celtic £1.5 million to sign the midfielder, which made him Australia’s most expensive product.

Brendan Rodgers stated that Tilio was having a hard time adjusting to life at Celtic because of his injury and the fact that Scottish football is much more intense than Tilio is used to.

A report in the Daily Record says that Tilio is “considering” a loan move in January to try to get some first-team games.

According to the story, Tilio hopes that his work with the Australian U23 team will help convince Rodgers to give him more playing time with the first team. If it doesn’t, he is “open” to a possible loan move.

Ufuk Talay, the assistant manager of the Australian national team, called Tilio a “exciting” player. The Brazilian does have some promise, but he hasn’t had the chance to show it yet.

Another big fan of the Celtic winger is Craig Moore, who used to play for Rangers and thinks of him as a “project signing.”

No matter what is wrong with the young player, he won’t play ahead of Daizen Maeda, Luis Palma, or Hyunjun Yang until he gets plenty of minutes in those legs. All three of them are in great form right now.

Liel Abada will fall even further down the ranks when he comes back in December. He sounds like he could be a good player for Celtic in the future, so let’s hope he can find the game he wants.

Breaking News: “I think he’ll have to go somewher” 24 years-old celtic forward as he was told to leave Celtic Fc to save his football career this next transfer window

With so many players on the first team, it’s almost impossible for Brendan Rodgers to make sure that all of them get to play.

The manager of the Hoops has said that he wants to cut down the team in January and that some players who don’t play much will be let go.

The Celtic winger Mikey Johnston hasn’t played much for Rodgers, even though he’s been very good for the Republic of Ireland, so he might be one of the players who leaves, either on loan or forever.

Mark Guidi, a football expert, told the 24-year-old that he needs to leave the club if he wants to play more with the first team.

“The Liam Scales story is obviously inspiring for any football player who’s maybe having a hard time finding his way,” Guidi said on The Go Radio Football Show.

“Mikey Johnston, I don’t see him beating or ever getting ahead of Liel Abada when he’s healthy, Palma right now, or Maeda on the other side.”

“So I think Mikey Johnston is a very good football player, but I think he’ll have to go somewhere else to play regular football.”

Johnston hasn’t started a game for Celtic this season under Brendan Rodgers. He wasn’t on the team at the beginning of the season because of an illness, but he’s been seen only once in a Celtic game since then.
