NEIL LENNON has tried to jam Callum McGregor, Scott Brown and Olivier Ntcham into the same team twice now with the bhoys not winning either fixture. All three are great assets but the Irishman’s insistence they all play – even if it means one of them is out of position then so be it.
Funnily enough, one of those games was against Cluj in the Champions League qualifier where Neil Lennon admitted he tried to cram in as many technically gifted players as possible into his side – the result was Celtic bowing out of the Champions League qualifiers.
The Celtic manager tried the same at the weekend after Ntcham impressed against Partick Thistle – the result was a draw.
The Celtic manager must be brave and drop a player he thinks will be least effective on the night rather than cram them all in. Ryan Christie also comes into play here because he also been displaced by Oli Ntcham at times making him less effective.
Neil Lennon is paid to make the difficult decisions – he must do so tonight for the good of the team. If we see all three play, there will be more than a few groans on social media.
