Ange took the chance to mix things up at Rugby Park on Sunday and for the very first time we witnessed Yuki Kobayashi, Tomoki Iwata and Sead Haksabanovic all in the same starting XI.
It’d be foolish to think that was the sole reason for the Bhoys roaring into a four goal lead after just 27 minutes, but what we do know is that Ange has been looking for an opportunity to further embed these players into his system.
Having only joined the club this season, many are suggesting that they (amongst others) will form a key part of Ange’s future plans as he targets a a second crack at the Champions League in 2023/24.
We discuss the impact the trio have had at Celtic so far, and where we potentially need further recruitments if we’re to put up a better fight of it in European football’s premier tournament next season.
