Celtic 1-3 Ferencvaros | 'We're Too Easy to Play Against.' | Full-Time Reaction
Thursday, September 17, 2026 • Duration 37:12
Celtic 1-3 Ferencváros — another damaging European night at Celtic Park as the same tactical problems surface again.
Paul and Chris give their full-time reaction after Celtic lose their Europa League opener, just four days after the 3-0 defeat at Ibrox.
Celtic started brightly but quickly lost control of the game, with familiar problems appearing both in and out of possession. Defensive errors, poor positioning, a lack of structure without the ball and an inability to manage difficult periods once again left Celtic exposed.
We discuss Liam Scales’ performance, Cameron Carter-Vickers’ difficult night, Callum McGregor’s role, James Forrest emerging as one of the few positives and why Celtic continue to look like a team without a clear identity.
There’s also a wider discussion about recruitment, Martin O’Neill’s tactical approach, Celtic’s inability to change games effectively and why simply signing a defensive midfielder won’t solve the deeper structural issues.
Three of Celtic’s biggest tests this season — away to LASK, away to Rangers and now Ferencváros at home — have produced 11 goals conceded and just two scored.
With Rangers visiting Celtic Park on Sunday, where does the reaction come from?

Celtic v Ferencvaros | 'Formation Changes Won’t Fix This' | Starting XI Prediction
Wednesday, September 16, 2026 • Duration 22:22
Celtic return to action just four days after the damaging defeat at Ibrox as Martin O’Neill’s side begin their Europa League campaign against Ferencváros.
But this is about much more than simply bouncing back from one bad result.
In today’s Starting XI Prediction, we look at the tactical problems that have repeatedly surfaced in Celtic’s biggest games this season — from the Champions League defeat against LASK to Sunday’s performance at Ibrox.
What is Celtic’s actual style of play? Are the team caught between playing out from the back and Martin O’Neill’s more direct approach? And do the current squad have the characteristics required to execute either system effectively?
We discuss Celtic’s problems in possession, the inability to play through pressure, Kasper Høgh’s role, the lack of support around the striker, the midfield’s defensive vulnerabilities and the bigger issue of a team that increasingly looks like a collection of individuals rather than a coherent unit.
There are also major Starting XI decisions to make, including Sam Johnstone or Sinisalo in goal, Trusty or Scales at centre-back, whether Oliver Sørensen should come into midfield and how Celtic structure the attack around Camilo Duran, Hassan and Kasper Høgh.
Can Celtic respond against Ferencváros and begin fixing the tactical problems that have already cost them in the biggest games this season?
🍀 In this episode:
• Celtic v Ferencváros preview
• Celtic Starting XI Prediction
• Reaction to the tactical problems exposed at Ibrox
• Why Celtic look caught between two styles
• Problems playing out from the back
• Why the direct approach isn’t working either
• Kasper Høgh being used incorrectly

• Concerns over Celtic’s in-game management

Rangers 3-0 Celtic | 'This Team Has No Identity.' | Post-Match Pint
Monday, September 14, 2026 • Duration 29:46
Rangers 3-0 Celtic — a disastrous afternoon at Ibrox as Celtic crash out of the League Cup after being comprehensively second best.
Paul, Callum and Darren react from Malone’s Glasgow after a performance that raised major questions about Martin O’Neill’s team selection, Celtic’s tactical identity and the recurring problems against the ball that have already been exposed in Europe this season.
Celtic struggled from the opening minutes, repeatedly inviting pressure by playing backwards, making unforced errors in possession and failing to cope with Rangers through midfield.
We discuss the controversial decision not to start Hassan, Sam Johnstone’s difficult afternoon, Celtic’s lack of defensive structure and why the problems go far beyond individual mistakes.
After the collapse in Austria earlier this season, was this really another wake-up call — or further evidence of problems that Celtic have failed to address?
With Rangers coming to Celtic Park next weekend, Martin O’Neill now has major decisions to make.

Rangers v Celtic | 'Could Be a Basketball Game!' | Starting XI Prediction
Saturday, September 12, 2026 • Duration 18:01
Celtic travel to Ibrox for a huge League Cup quarter-final against Rangers — with no away supporters inside the stadium and major selection decisions facing Martin O’Neill.
In today’s Starting XI Prediction, we look at how Celtic should approach the first of a domestic double-header against Rangers, with the league meeting at Celtic Park following just seven days later.
Celtic’s recent form has remained strong in terms of results, but there are still questions around the team’s defensive structure, particularly against the ball and through midfield. After the collapse in Austria and some open moments in recent domestic games, can Celtic tighten things up enough for a high-pressure derby at Ibrox?
We also discuss Celtic’s record at Ibrox without away supporters, why the first goal could be crucial, Sam Johnstone’s chances of keeping his place in goal, the Trusty v Scales decision, Martin O’Neill’s midfield dilemma and what Celtic’s new-look front three could be.

St. Johnstone 0-1 Celtic | "Made Heavy Work Of It" | Full-Time Reaction
Wednesday, September 9, 2026 • Duration 13:30
Celtic make it four wins from four after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over St Johnstone in Perth - but it was far from convincing.
We react at full-time as Martin O’Neill’s much-changed Celtic side struggle to find their rhythm, particularly during a flat first half, before eventually finding the breakthrough after the interval.
There were valuable minutes for several new and returning players, but plenty to discuss around Celtic’s lack of intensity, the press, how easily St Johnstone were able to play through midfield and whether the team is ready for the bigger tests ahead.
We also look ahead to Sunday’s huge game against Rangers, the major selection decisions facing O’Neill and which players have done enough to force their way into the starting XI.

St. Johnstone v Celtic | We Want to See THIS Front 3! | Starting XI Prediction
Tuesday, September 8, 2026 • Duration 16:09
Celtic travel to Perth to face St Johnstone as Martin O’Neill’s side look to make it six wins from six in the Scottish Premiership.
With Yang away on international duty, Kieran Tierney and Kasper Høgh returning to training and several new signings pushing for minutes, there are some big selection decisions ahead of Wednesday night.
In this Starting XI Prediction, Paul looks at Celtic’s strongest team right now, whether Høgh comes straight back into the side, if Emil Durán could move to the left, the battle for places in midfield and whether Tierney should be risked ahead of Sunday’s League Cup quarter-final at Ibrox.
We also look at St Johnstone’s start to the season, Celtic’s defensive vulnerabilities in transition and why tomorrow’s game has to come before any thoughts of Rangers.

St. Mirren 1-2 Celtic | 'Give Yang His Flowers!' | Full-Time Reaction
Monday, September 7, 2026 • Duration 17:16
Celtic come from behind to beat St Mirren 2-1 in Paisley and maintain their perfect start to the Scottish Premiership season.
Paul and Darren give their full-time reaction after a dramatic night at St Mirren Park, where Celtic trailed 1-0 at half-time before Liam Scales headed home the equaliser and Yang completed the comeback with the winning goal.
We discuss a brilliant performance from Yang, Camilo Duran’s role in the winner, Celtic’s character after going behind and the threat St Mirren posed throughout an open and difficult game.
There’s also plenty of discussion around the officiating and VAR, including Celtic’s disallowed first-half goal, the lengthy delay before the second half and the bizarre circumstances surrounding a late Celtic goal being ruled out after the referee was sent to the monitor.
We also assess Hassan’s performance, Oliver Sørensen’s cameo, the impact of Celtic’s substitutions and how Martin O’Neill might reshape the attack when Yang departs.

Away Fans Banned! | St. Mirren v Celtic | Starting XI Prediction
Friday, September 4, 2026 • Duration 15:52
Celtic travel to Paisley to face St Mirren in a top-of-the-table Scottish Premiership clash — but there’s plenty to discuss before a ball is kicked.
In today’s Starting XI Prediction, we look at Celtic’s team selection for the trip to St Mirren, the latest injury situation, the new signings pushing for minutes and Martin O’Neill’s big decisions ahead of a demanding run of fixtures.
We also discuss the SPFL decision to ban away supporters from all Celtic v Rangers fixtures this season, including the upcoming cup tie, and whether removing away fans is really the best long-term solution for one of football’s biggest derbies.
There’s also reaction to Celtic’s Europa League squad, with three new signings omitted. Joel van den Berg’s absence can perhaps be explained by his age and development pathway, but the left-back situation is far more concerning with Kieran Tierney injured and Landon Emenalo unavailable and left out of the European squad.

Did Celtic Get It Right? | Summer 2026 Recruitment Breakdown
Thursday, September 3, 2026 • Duration 31:13
Celtic’s summer transfer window is officially over — so how should we assess the club’s business after 10 new arrivals, major departures and another Champions League qualification failure?
Paul and Stuart review the entire Celtic transfer window, focusing on the striking difference between the first four signings of the summer and the six players brought in during the final 24 hours of European registration.
The early arrivals appeared to signal a more targeted recruitment strategy: younger players, strong first-team experience, Champions League pedigree and significant resale potential. But after Celtic’s exit against LASK, the profile changed dramatically as loan deals, inexperienced prospects and short-term solutions arrived late in the window.
We discuss whether that represents sensible adaptation or another example of Celtic being underprepared when it mattered most.
There’s also a detailed look at the finances. Celtic spent approximately £32.5m including potential add-ons, but major sales including Arne Engels, Daizen Maeda and others pushed outgoing transfer income towards £47m — leaving the club once again in a substantial transfer profit despite significant cash reserves.
Was this the summer Celtic finally modernised their recruitment? Or did another promising start ultimately fall victim to the same problems around timing, structure and ambition?
🍀 In this episode:
• Reviewing all 10 Celtic summer signings
• The major difference between the first four and final six arrivals
• Camilo Duran’s huge early impact
• Kasper Høgh and Celtic’s improved attacking options
• Why the post-LASK recruitment looked completely different
• Celtic’s midfield rebuild
• Did Celtic properly replace Arne Engels and Daizen Maeda?
• Approximately £32.5m spent versus £47m received
• Why Celtic remain in transfer profit
• Should Celtic have spent more before the Champions League qualifiers?

Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen | 'He's A LIVEWIRE!' | Full-Time Reaction
Wednesday, September 2, 2026 • Duration 08:07
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen reaction from Celtic Park as the Hoops maintain their perfect start to the Scottish Premiership season with another convincing victory.
We break down Celtic’s performance, the goals and the standout individual displays as Martin O’Neill’s side comfortably see off Aberdeen.
Camilo Durán continues to impress with his energy, movement and intelligent play through the middle, while Haissem Hassan once again showed the direct running and one-v-one ability that makes him such an exciting option in Celtic’s attack.
We also discuss Yang’s performance before his departure for the Asian Games, the growing competition for places in midfield, Oliver Sørensen making his Celtic debut and how the new arrivals could reshape the starting XI over the coming weeks.
With Sam Johnstone also arriving and further transfer business expected before the deadline, Celtic suddenly have significantly more competition throughout the squad.
