Carl Starfelt reckons Celtic are in ideal squad shape to handle the intense rigours of a double-pronged attack at home and abroad. Ange Postecoglou’s squad are gearing up for the switch to two games a week as they tackle the Champions League and domestic affairs from the end of this month.
Celtic will have at least 20 matches before the World Cup shutdown in November due to the condensed nature of this term’s fixture list. Last season, Postecoglou struggled for periods during that late autumn and early winter spell with injuries to key stars and a lack of depth in the unit to adequately cover.
However, the boss has rectified the situation through the last two transfer windows and has plans to add more before the close of the current shopping opportunity. Starfelt was part of the core who had to battle through Euro and domestic commitments during the first-half of last term when the squad was, at times, left threadbare.
