Ian McGarry has been speaking on the latest edition of The Transfer Window podcast about many clubs and managers from around Europe.

Which club did Brown join Celtic from?

One such club that McGarry talked about was Celtic.

While he was talking about the Bhoys, McGarry mentioned the potential problems in the dressing room.

Earlier in the season, manager Neil Lennon claimed that he thought some players in the dressing room no longer wanted to be there.

Looking at Celtic’s results in the Europa League and the gap to Rangers in the Premiership and you could argue that Lennon is right.

Certainly, McGarry thinks there are problems in the dressing room caused by players who want to leave because of the pressure they are constantly under.

He said: “I think there are problems in the dressing room with regards to players who want to leave, who I think are fatigued – with the pressure that’s placed upon them week in, week out.

“Celtic still have the possibility of doing a ridiculous quadruple-treble should they win the Scottish Cup final, which has been delayed from last season, and ten in a row hangs heavy on that green and white shirt.”

TIF Thoughts on Celtic’s dressing room and McGarry’s thoughts on the problems…

Celtic are currently chasing a tenth league title in a row, making history if they achieve it.

However, they are nine points behind Rangers in the league, so at the moment, they won’t be making history.

It is interesting that McGarry and Lennon think that some players don’t want to be there anymore, but neither the Northern Irishman nor McGarry name anyone.

The likes of Odsonne Edouard were heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in the last transfer window, so maybe he is one who wants to leave?

The truth is we don’t know, but it is clear that both Lennon and McGarry believe some players in that Celtic dressing room don’t want to be there anymore.
