The registration process is unclear, clubs might submit their squads directly to UEFA or more likely through the SFA to ensure that all of the players are indeed signed and contracted. Sandy Bryson has previous.
Selling Jota and Carl Starfelt at the same time as Aaron Mooy retired has trimmed quality from the squad. Injuries to Reo Hatate, Liel Abada and Daizen Maeda has left Rodgers with just four or five reliable performers forced into carrying others that are miles short of the standard required.
With a goal difference of two for and 22 against it was quite a campaign for the club which had tooled for the campaign by signing Rabbi Matondo, Ridvan Yilmaz, Ben Davies plus other stars including John Souttar and Tom Lawrence.
More than a decade on from Tony Watt’s goal against Barcelona Celtic have notched up TWO more wins in the Champions League.
I’m sure Michael and the team will be doing everything possible to navigate the Q3 round and, if that goes well, the play-off.
With Ridvan Yilmaz injured in training it looks like Borna Barisic will have to be selected with no interest from elsewhere in the Croat who is in the final year of his contract.
Ultimately, it’s about trying to get European football after Christmas. I read somewhere about Celtic not having a knockout win for such a long time.
