Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is one of football’s great talents… so why can’t he get games in this struggling Celtic side?

Former England midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is struggling to secure regular playing time at Celtic under manager Martin O'Neill. The 33-year-old was handed a rare start in a 2-0 defeat against Falkirk but was substituted after 65 minutes. He has made only eight appearances across all competitions this season, starting just four matches as Celtic face struggles both domestically and in Europe.

The Daily Mail questions why the former Liverpool and Arsenal player cannot secure more minutes, noting his past injuries, an unconvincing spell at Besiktas, and O'Neill's reluctance to rotate his midfield. The writer suggests Oxlade-Chamberlain faces a challenge to avoid becoming another former Premier League star whose career faltered after moving to Glasgow.
