Glenn Loovens’ Jordan Lotomba claim looks bizarre after Celtic team selections

Patrick Sinat argues that Glenn Loovens' claim that Jordan Lotomba was signed primarily as squad depth rather than a regular starter looks bizarre given Celtic's recent team selections. Despite being signed in September to cover for the injured Alistair Johnston, Lotomba has played only ten competitive minutes for Celtic, coming on as a substitute against Rangers in the Premier Sports Cup.

Sinat highlights that manager Martin O'Neill has instead favored Anthony Ralston and young defender Colby Donovan at right-back. With Johnston returning to Celtic training, the author notes that Lotomba's first-team opportunities may diminish further after failing to secure league appearances during Johnston's absence.
