Celtic scraped a 1-0 victory over Ross County in their latest Scottish Premiership outing.
The sole goal, a heavily deflected strike from Alistair Johnston, was a rare highlight in a match where Celtic’s attacking woes were glaringly apparent.
The Parkhead side’s struggle to find the net has thrown their lack of depth in the striking department into sharp relief. With Oh away at the Asian Cup and Kyogo Furuhashi’s form dipping alarmingly, the team’s offensive shortcomings were on full display.
The absence of Daizen Maeda, another versatile forward option currently at the Asian Cup, further compounds Celtic’s problems upfront.
Manager Brendan Rodgers has a conundrum on his hands. While he seems to prefer Kyogo over Oh, neither has been particularly convincing this season. Kyogo’s lack of goals is a growing concern, and Oh, despite his potential, has not yet proven to be the solution Celtic needs.
The match against Ross County underscored Celtic’s urgent need for a new striker. Reports suggest that the club is actively seeking to bolster their attacking options in the January transfer window, and today’s performance only serves to underline the necessity of such a move.
