The stats just keep on piling up against the Celtic defence with 17 goals lost in five Europa League ties.
Scoring twice in the San Siro, something that eluded the great sides of Jock Stein, Martin O’Neill and Gordon Strachan wasn’t enough as the back lot conceded four more to ensure a bottom place finish in Europa League Group H with a match still to be played.
Yet again, poor defending, this time Elhamed. I cannot remember Barkas making a save of note since he arrived at #Celtic

Normal service resumed. Now 2-2. Defending, murder, as usual from #celtic

Martin has been broadcasting for almost 30 years with a lengthy stint in the hotseat at Radio Clyde hosting Super Scoreboard before doing his own thing with Alan Rough on PLZ Football.
In recent times he has regularly worked on corporate events for Celtic including the 2019 London Charity fund-raiser with Scott Brown and Neil Lennon.
It seems that only the team manager can defend his back-line which he switched from a four to a three but with familiar results to last week’s collapse in Prague after going ahead against Sparta.
