Now that the transfer window has closed, 67 Hail Hail have named what the strongest starting XI looks like.
Martin O’Neill was able to make five signings in the transfer window, including three on deadline day.
The area that needed the most improvement was up top and they were able to bring in three new faces for that position.
Defensive positions were also bolstered in the right-back and centre-back slots.
O’Neill knows what tools he has to use for the rest of the season, and here is what we think is the best starting XI in the squad.
TRUE OR FALSE: BENJAMIN NYGREN WILL SCORE MORE THAN 20 GOALS THIS SEASON FOR CELTIC
Celtic’s strongest XI revealed
In all honesty, there aren’t many changes when it comes to what the side’s current strongest XI looks like.
Kasper Schmeichel keeps his place between the sticks after Celtic opted not to sign a goalkeeper.
Julian Araujo has really impressed and starts at right-back, with Auston Trusty and Liam Scales both in the central defensive positions.
Kieran Tierney completes the backline at left-back.
Moving into midfield, the three consist of Callum McGregor, Arne Engels and Benjamin Nygren.
Nottingham Forest had three bids rejected for Engels but he still remains in the XI, with Reo Hatate missing out following a poor run of form.
Is this Celtic’s strongest starting XI now that the transfer window has closed?
What does yours look like?
The biggest debate is in the attacking area, particularly in the number nine role.
Daizen Maeda starts on the left and Hyunjun Yang is on the right, but up front is a straight shootout between Tomas Cvancara and Junior Adamu.
Fellow new signings Benjamin Arthur and Joel Mvuka have to settle for a place on the bench, as will one of Cvancara and Adamu.
Who would get the nod for you?
