Welcome, folks, to what is known as the normalisation of deviance. Celtic, against all the odds and against…

Writer James Forrest argues that Celtic's comeback victory in the Europa League masks deep, persistent structural issues within the team. Despite falling behind and failing to register a shot on target in the first hour, Celtic rallied to win after bringing on attacking substitutes Camilo Duran and Callum Osmand, with Duran scoring twice and Osmand also finding the net.
Forrest criticizes manager Martin O'Neill's initial team selection, which featured Sebastian Tounekti, James Forrest, Kasper Høgh, and Jordan Lotomba. The writer warns against overconfidence, arguing that narrow escapes create a false sense of security that blinds the club to lingering tactical and institutional flaws.
