Celtic defender Liam Scales stated that the squad's experienced players must take responsibility for the team's ongoing struggles. Speaking ahead of a Europa League match against Besiktas, Scales emphasized that senior players need to lead by example rather than place blame on recent arrivals trying to adapt to the club's expectations.
