Ronny Deila has enjoyed the best week of his Celtic career.
Booking a place in the final of the League Cup was quickly followed by the deadline day signings of Stuart Armstrong and Gary Mackay-Steven from Dundee United.
Topping things off was the new deal agreed with Kris Commons with Deila enjoying the feel-good factor on the training ground.
“This week in training has been the best I have seen since I have been here,” the Celtic boss admitted. We have two players in every position and that can hopefully make the team stronger and hopefully get us better results.
“To get fresh blood into the squad is important. The result at the weekend was positive also. We got confidence from that. We have been working on the same things for eight months and I think we are going the right way.”
Getting Commons onto a new deal was greeted with delight by almost all supporters with Deila pleased to see the contract completed.
“I took the decision that he gets this contract and we went through with it,” the hoops boss explained. “There is no problem to me giving him two years.
“Now this is done, I am happy, Kris is happy and now we have to concentrate on what happens on the pitch.
“You always look for improvement and he has shown me in the last month that he is really up for it and understands where we are going.
“I am so happy and, when I see the new boys in training, I see quality and see boys happy to come in.
“Two young, Scottish players who are hungry with a lot of skill, It has been a good week and we are in a good place just now.”
