Neil Lennon’s recent post-match interviews have made for distressing viewing in recent weeks.
Trying to put a constantly positive spin on set-backs isn’t easy with the hoops manager putting himself up for ridicule with some of his announcements.
Picking out highlights when the defence has constantly been caving in regardless of whether it was a back three or a back four while the choice of goalkeeper made little difference. Except tonight, a 3-2 win over Lille was a little different.
“There’s a long way to go in the season.
“We’ve been off the boil for whatever reason, but there’s a good vibe about them at the minute.”
Neil Lennon hopes victory over Lille can inspire Celtic to get back to winning ways domestically.

Lennon made wholesale changes to his side, Ryan Christie was suspended and joined on the side-lines by Scott Brown, Odsonne Edouard and Tom Rogic.
David Turnbull started his second Celtic match, Ismaila Soro his first with both players key to Celtic’s win with some freshness provided by Ewan Henderson who replaced Jeremie Frimpong after half an hour.
One swallow doesn’t make a summer, Celtic need to get a win on Sunday against Kilmarnock with a big focus on who makes the starting XI with all of the players tonight making strong cases for selection.
