Celtic considers lineup changes after derby loss at Ibrox

Summary

Celtic's recent defeat at Ibrox has sparked discussions about potential changes to the team for upcoming matches. Midfield issues and player positioning were highlighted as contributing factors to the loss. Camilo Duran, who has been effective as a central striker, was moved to a wider role during the game. Analysts suggest restoring him to the center could enhance Celtic's performance, especially as they prepare for matches against Ferencvaros and Rangers. Manager Martin O'Neill may also consider other personnel adjustments to stabilize the midfield.

What they're saying

"
There's been no shortage of debate since Sunday about what went wrong at Ibrox. The midfield, the lack of intensity, the absence of control, and the way Rangers were able to impose themselves physically all across the park. Did Celtic make life a lot harder for themselves by moving players away from the positions where they've been most effective?
