Celtic’s defeat to Kilmarnock yesterday created all sorts of stories, headlines and permutations. But I really wasn’t expecting this one to be honest.
As Brendan Rodgers’ side allowed Rangers to close the gap at the top of the Scottish Premiership, focus went sharply onto the quality of the Celtic squad once more as another poor performance epitomised how the Hoops have been playing over the past few weeks.
With the Celtic manager continually saying he needs to add quality to his squad, journalist Bill Leckie, has said that Rodgers should be looking at Danny Armstrong after the 26-year-old’s impressive display against his side yesterday.
Leckie said [The Scottish Sun], “How could you watch Danny Armstrong and Matt Kennedy, two proper old-fashioned wingers, and not will them to get some reward for their touch and pace and movement?
“Armstrong in particular is a right good operator. He creates, he scores, he inspires, he even has the bonus talent of being able to throw a ball halfway to Alloway.
“No one’s going to tell me he wouldn’t have brought more to Celtic yesterday than Palma, Oh or Yang.
“No one’s going to tell me he isn’t worth a punt by one of our top two clubs.”
Where to even start with this one but let’s give it a go.
