In his last dozen matches in charge Giovanni van Bronckhorst was regularly adding to his list of injured players.
The good news was that they’d almost all be back after the World Cup break which many assumed would be mid-December and the resumption of the SPFL against Hibs.
For no obvious reason, almost all of the injuries would clear up while the action was underway in Qatar.
Week by week they had built up. Filip Helander hasn’t played a single match, John Souttar managed 67 minutes at Livingston in July, Kemar Roofe has made two substitute appearances with a variety of others checking out for a variety of reasons.
Yesterday Micky Beale was in charge for the first time, none of the players listed above were involved.

Three of the starting XI are out of contract in May with two others on loan. Connor Goldson and Ben Davies could be parachuted in to play against Hibs on Thursday but there was no mention of Ridvan Yilmaz or Tom Lawrence before or after yesterday’s match.
With two matches a week about to resume Beale is going to need the treatment room gutted if he is to make any improvement on the results that got van Bronckhorst sacked.
No problem there regarding the injuries the klan klub will give Mr Bean an open cheque book to purchase as many players as he wants or needs.
Can you imagine if they do sign Balangon or whatever his name is back from QPR at a price,as I’m sure he left on a free,now that really would be good business.
Anybody got Ross Wilson phone number.
Soutter,every dog in the street new he was a sick note.no laughing at the back.The Transfer guru did well there.
He must stay.
Odious Little Prik, best ignored or battad by St. Joanstin keeper!!
Above reply fur McCann.. No more Stella lol!
No that’s a worry for every club and ones with small pool of players the teams with the biggest squads will without doubt benefit celtic rotate there pool of players there is always worry brining in players that’s not playing a lot to be made to 60 even 30 mins to get niggles or worst it’s going to be a lot on players playing three times a week no be out of Europe might be disappointing for celtic but would it be to much I’d say it would have given the chasing group hope but now they all start with the same amount of games so I can’t see Celtic_fc_1888 losing 9 points in fact they will in crease there lead to 15 or more
