Radical Change Needed | Rodgers’ 4-3-3, Squad Risks & Kilmarnock Test

In this week’s Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Alan and James dissect Celtic’s tactical mess following a chaotic summer transfer window. Alan calls for radical solutions, such as a 3-4-2-1 system to make the best of a broken squad, while James highlights the risks of persisting with Brendan Rodgers’ stale 4-3-3 and the dangers of aging players like McGregor and Carter-Vickers. They debate Maeda as a central striker, what to expect from new signings like Tounetki and Balakwisha, and why Kilmarnock’s direct, physical style on a plastic pitch could expose Celtic’s vulnerabilities. It’s a frank look at squad risks, tactical dead ends, and whether Rodgers can adapt before Celtic’s European campaign.
