PUT A McGRINN ON FANS' FACES

SIGNINGS SPREE Gers boss Martin

- 

THE medical term is somnambulism. You, me and the Celtic supporters know it better as sleepwalking.

It’s a condition Celtic appear to have developed while watching the strength of their squad diminish and the size of their bank balance increase significantly.

This time last year, Brendan Rodgers’ side were beating the likes of Manchester City and Chelsea in preseason friendlies.

Now a squad shorn of Kyogo Furuhashi, Jota, Nicolas Kuhn and Greg Taylor are being ponderous in Portugal against indifferent opposition after an uninspiring performance against Cork City.

The start to Celtic’s title defence is less than three weeks away and it feels like time for one of Brendan's “I've never been so angry" speeches.

Whether that’s directed towards the players or the club's hierarchy, I will leave to your better judgement.
