The search for the best Celtic side since 1988 really gets tough when you move into midfield.

Without question the club has been blessed with some outstanding talents since the Centenary side lifted the double in 1988.

Various formations have been tried but for the purposes of this vote the team will play 4-4-2.

In the centre there will be two players, a stopper/destroyer/holding midfielder alongside a more creative type.

The concept of a holding midfielder was really established by Neil Lennon, until then most midfielders did a bit of defending as well as attacking with a number of recent trends including the diamond formation and even a ‘false number 9.’

Brendan Rodgers is currently working with a number of options without settling on the right mix, throwing in 30 years of options would make things almost impossible.

With a powerful defence of Mikael Lustig, Virgil van Dijk, Alan Stubbs and Kieran Tierney there is real quality already in the side in front of Artur Boruc.

This poll will run until midnight on Friday, go to the final page to vote, followed by the poll for the creative midfielder.
