Joe Hart remains best Celtic option as Arsenal gloveshare policy not the solution - Chris Sutton

Mikel Arteta might like the idea of chopping and changing goalkeepers on a weekly basis – and he admitted he’s even thought about doing it during games.

But most managers like to have a No.1 they can hang their hat on if they can help it and only switch if it’s really necessary. It can be because the regular keeper has lost form, is injured, or – like Celtic this weekend – has been sent off and is suspended. Goalkeepers are a weird bunch at the best of times but the ones in the background have to lurk around like vultures waiting for their big chance. And they need to grab it with both hands when it comes.

We’ve seen it plenty of times over the years. Keepers have been patiently preparing to pounce and as soon as the door is open they jump through it and stay in the team. I’m not so sure that what should – or will – happen with Celtic though.

Joe Hart will miss Saturday's match at Motherwell after his red card against Livingston last weekend and you’d expect Scott Bain to get the nod between the sticks having came off the bench at the Tony Macaroni Arena. The debate around the Celtic keeper role was pretty loud over the summer when Brendan Rodgers had the option to go into the market and get another glovesman.

But it went pretty quiet thanks to Hart’s impressive start to the campaign, where he make some big saves to bail out his side when they were not playing particularly well. Now, after a couple of high profile goals where fingers have been pointed at the No.1, the questions – and the arguments – are back.

Is this a chance for Bain to stake his claim? We know Rodgers likes him. He threw Bain into the cauldron of Ibrox for his debut a few weeks after he arrived from Dundee as back up to Dorus de Vries and Craig Gordon
