Alan Thompson discusses why Eddie Howe is the right man to become Celtic's new boss & has compared him to a former manager who won plenty of trophies at Parkhead… pic.twitter.com/3syyrpiAOl
Thompson played in a very successful Celtic side back under Martin O’Neill and knows the importance of Celtic bouncing back after a horrible season.
The Hoops have a massive task ahead but it should be an exciting and mouth watering prospect for the incoming Celtic manager.
Not often can someone come in and build their own philosophy from scratch.
The Brendan Rodgers comparison shouldn’t be used. The Irishman came to us after an incredible learning curve at Liverpool.
Howe is his own man but he believes in attacking football. That’s the Celtic way and that should excite the supporters.
We still await confirmation but there does seem an inevitability about Eddie coming in at the end of the season.
We’re 12 weeks out from Champions League qualifiers so time is of the essence.
