The Celtic team is more formidable than ever.

 

 

Last summer, Brendan Rodgers returned to a team led by Ange Postecoglou that was dominated.

However, he required time to put his own ideas and style of play into practice, which is why Celtic’s performances were frequently a touch erratic and off-color.

Celtic won the double in spite of this, and they are currently dominating both the Premiership and the Champions League.

In that regard, you have to wonder what the champs will need to do when the transfer market reopens in January.

Regarding departures, there might be some young players leaving or older players who simply require more playing time.

However, there aren’t many areas that require improvement in terms of new players because Celtic has a strong bench and some well-known players aren’t even able to get regular playing time.

Allan Preston is therefore perplexed as to who the team might sign in the winter.

Celtic stated that they don’t require Lennon Miller because Luke McCowan is an example.

In the summer, Luke McCowan moved from Dundee to Celtic, and based on his performances, he has been outstanding and somewhat of a fan favourite.

But because of the sheer calibre of players ahead of him, he isn’t playing for Rodgers on a regular basis—not because he isn’t talented enough.

Preston told The Scottish Football Podcast that he is perplexed by the idea that Celtic could recruit Lennon Miller from Motherwell and asked, “Where does he play?”

“Everyone is talking about Lennon Miller joining Celtic,” Preston remarked. “Where is he playing?” Luke McCowan was the primary man for Dundee and had a lot of influence. He was unable to obtain a game.

Luke McCowan made the proper decision for himself and his family because it’s a great move and you wouldn’t turn down that opportunity.

Would Lennon Miller, however, go there and play for that Celtic team? Luke McCowan there makes it impossible for me to see.

Luke McCowan’s Celtics stats

Despite playing less than 300 minutes across all competitions for his boyhood club, the 26-year-old has five goal involvements to his name.

Although that is anticipated to rise in advance of this demanding winter schedule, he is still not anticipated to be a consistent starter.

You might argue that Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate, Arne Engels, and Paulo Bernardo are currently better than McCowan, which is why there is worry about where Miller would play for Celtic.

McCowan has played 267 minutes for Celtic this season, according to WhoScored.
