Does anyone think a conversation needs to be had regarding McGregor . Apart from the ibrox game early in the season, I’m finding it difficult to remember a really good game he’s had . Whilst he has been a great servant to Celtic, approaching 31 and with the amount of games he puts his body on the line for us with, could he be starting to slow up?
When we play. European level teams he struggles to break up play and defend play as it’s not his natural role.
Do we need to move him forward a bit with a proper mobile defensive midfielder behind him or do we start using him more sporadically to get the best out of him? I feel he needs to be playing regularly to keep his tempo up as we have seen recently with his performances .
Or is it in fact not a position we need to look at imminently with the other positions we need to improve on more important? Or I is he just having an average season and it’s noticeable as he normally is one of our better players and this season has dipped?

It’s the most important position on the pitch in my opinion. As soon as Iwata came on yesterday all the pressure on our back line was almost mitigated. It’s been the same all season, he is an empty shirt at the moment and shouldn’t play again this season.
Give the man a rest and see where he is at in pre-season. Have to remember he will be away to the euros as well.
