CE Weekly: Martin O’Neill’s Perfect Start Can’t Mask Celtic’s Biggest Problem

Author: The Celtic Exchange January 20, 2026 Duration: 57:43
Since returning once again as Interim Manager, Martin O’Neill has guided Celtic to three wins from three. However, despite those result, there is absolutely no escaping the fact that reinforcements are needed - and urgently - if success is to follow between now and the end of the season. A brilliant manager he may be, but a magician he is not. That reality comes into even sharper focus this week, with two pivotal fixtures of very different kinds on the horizon. First comes the midweek trip to Italy to face Bologna in Europa League action, followed by Sunday’s visit to Tynecastle - a fixture many will regard as a must-win against the league leaders. Should O’Neill manage to grind out two big results, it would represent a huge step in the right direction. Let's just hope the steps he has to take beyond that are with a couple of extra options at his disposal in the first-team squad. 🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they cover all of the above and more on the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. ============ 🍀 Get even more from Celtic Exchange each and every week on the Celtic Exchange patreon Channel ➕ More Podcasts | More Reaction | More Celtic 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.
