Poll: Who is the best winger in the current squad at Celtic Park?

You need to have good wingers in your squad if you are going to play attacking football, and Celtic have been fortunate over the years to have some of the best players in that position not only in Scottish football, but in World football.

You only have to look at Jimmy Johnstone as an example of that, he is arguably Celtic’s greatest ever player, and he was a winger, and he exemplified the attacking football that has been part of Celtic since the club was formed.

The current Hoops squad – in season 2021/22 – includes some very good wingers, two in particular were key to the Bhoys winning the title under the management of Ange Postecoglou – Jota and Liel Abada.

The duo – who only joined the Hoops in season 2021/22 – both contributed plenty of goals and assists for the Bhoys, and played a big role in Celtic winning the title.

The Hoops are a better team when there are good wingers in the side, and that was certainly the case in season 2021/22, as the Bhoys were the top scorers in the Premiership, and a big reason for that was the form of the wing duo of Jota and Abada.

Jota and Abada aren’t the only wingers at Celtic though, as James Forrest and Mikey Johnston are also at the club. Season 2021/22 wasn’t a campaign to remember for either player, as both struggled to get into the first-team due to injuries and the form of the other wingers at Celtic Park.

However, the season was probably better for Forrest as he did score a key goal in a big win at Livingston, and he also signed a new deal at Celtic that will keep him at the club until 2025.

You have to imagine that Ange Postecoglou’s side will continue to make use of wingers for as long as he is the manager at Celtic Park. He is a manager that likes to play attacking
