Brendan Rodgers responds to Celtic transfer poser as he issues Nat Phillips and Cameron Carter Vickers injury update

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Brendan Rodgers admitted every manager wishes they could have more signings as he revealed work is already well underway for the January transfer window.Celtic have come under fire for not strengthening more in the summer following their 2-0 Champions League defeat to Feyenoord - which came after last season’s Treble winners announced record-breaking financial results for the club.

Ahead of Saturday’s lunchtime trip to Livingston, Rodgers was again quizzed on the recruitment in the wake of the defeat in Rotterdam.Former defender Alan Stubbs slammed the board for their recruitment and Rodgers said: “If you ask any manager they’ll always be wanting more, of course.

But we work with the players that’s here. I’m not saying that in any disrespectful way but every manager will tell you they maybe wish they could have done one or two more signings but the window closed.

We had the players we had in and I’m a coach and manager and we will work with the very best players at our disposal to make our performance level the best we can possibly be and now we’re preparing already for the January window.”Meanwhile, Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips remains a doubt for the journey across the M8 after missing the Feyenoord clash.
