The USA international had been on an extended spell away from the pitch last year, as he succumbed to a nasty Achilles injury during our Europa League match with Sturm Graz way back in October, just before things started to go pear shaped. Brendan Rodgers departed the club once more under a cloud, due to recruitment failings and being backstabbed by the executive suite, whilst our principal shareholder released a scandalous statement excoriating the Irishman for his part in proceedings.
That massive mess that was left behind cannot be allowed to happen again, as it precipitated a nasty and vociferous clash between the club and it’s current custodians. Recruitment has become such an issue at the moment for Celtic, that supporters have had no choice but to mobilise and try to affect change at the very top, with the way in which we conduct business currently not acceptable or palatable to fans for that matter.
Martin O’Neill had to fight just to get his backroom staff back at the club, after our Board of Directors tried lowballing Shaun Maloney and Mark Fotheringham, despite saving their bacon twice last season. That has not went down well with a fanbase who are already losing patience with the club’s hierarchy, as poor communication and lack of appreciation for the supporters wishes are constant canker sore.
The club have moved slowly once again, but the signing of Camilo Duran is promising, if not laboured to a large degree this summer. Supporters want to see the club kick-on and really back the manager this time out and it appears they are not alone in this mindset.
Cameron Carter-Vickers has just returned from injury and has insisted the club’s recruitment needs to provide a fresh injection of talent for this forthcoming campaign.
Celtic’s number one central defender and stalwart of the team for years now said of this summer window: “I think it’s definitely important that we strengthen the squad. Obviously, there’s players out of our hands, but if you’re telling me there’s a striker coming in, then that’s good news. Like Martin said, hopefully a few more,” a determined Carter-Vickers stated, as reported by Daily Record.
