Neil Lennon wasn’t giving much away about his walking wounded.
The caretaker boss inherited a squad with 11 players in the treatment room as the strain and stress of a treble treble bid takes it’s toll.
Olivier Ntcham and Tom Rogic have still to play for Celtic in 2019 with neither in line for a role at Dundee on Sunday.
????? NL on injuries: “@OlivierNtcham and Filip Benjovic trained on the grass this week. @Tom_Rogic and @ryanchristie2 are still a little bit away.”
More from the manager on https://t.co/00fJCijgWx and YouTube later today. ????

Callum McGregor looks being involved which will give Lennon some leeway in the middle of the park where Nir Bitton and Ewan Henderson have both been pitched into battle.
It does seem quite convenient that players are targeting the Glasgow derby in a fortnight’s time for their return to action.
It’s unlikely that Lennon will pitch in more than one of his long term injured players for that fixture which could have a significant bearing on the outcome of the SPFL title.
