If nobody leaves in summer do we need to spend?

Yes our defence is woeful in europe.

I think we need to strengthen. Our performances this season have been good enough hopefully to win another treble, but it is plain to see in some of our games that teams are now able to frustrate us. We have dropped a lot of points at home this year because of this.
The wins over sevco recently although great to watch, shouldn't in my opinion lull us into a complacency about how far ahead we are. Sevco were a shambles.
I think a better way of looking at it is that Hibs and Kilmarnock only lost one of their four league games against us this season, and even St Johnstone were unbeaten in their two matches at Celtic park.
For whatever reason, opposition teams although not beating us very often, are making life a lot harder for us and making the games very frustrating.
Hopefully the club will look at this at the end of the season.

Celtic are notorious for being content and not strengthening during periods of success; however I believe BR will change this habit.
It's no secret that we need to improve in European competition and the current domestic season has shown that teams have learned how to play against us and - Sevco apart - have improved their squads and results against us, especially at Celtic Park.
I also think that we will definitely lose a few players in the summer either by the choice of the player or our manager and we will have some new faces and hopefully more quality to progress and flourish.

Spot on Gerry, I personally think it’s night and day comparing BR two seasons but potentially with the same end result 😂😂

We really do need 2-3 better quality players fir Europe, otherwise it will be another hide behind the couch campaign.

The defence really needs a major upgrade as Tierney and Ajer are the only players good enough imo the rest are average at best.

Irish Kiwi . I agree with you up to a point, that our defence is woeful in Europe . However we both have to remember that our team defends as a team . So are we saying everyone is bad in Europe .
For my part, I think the draws for Group Stages of the Champions League have been very unkind to us . if we continue to be drawn against clubs who can spend 5-6 times our transfer budget on one single player every year, we will continue to struggle . I know we are lightly to be in the third or fourth ranked teams, but surely there are eager grioups than we have had over the last 2 yrs.

Chris the top 2 seeds in almost any group are able to outspend us by £100 to £200mill a season. The 3rd team usually also have a larger budget so unless we are very very lucky we are always going to be miles behind financially. I don't really think we have a prayer in CL terms but we should expect to qualify and get a run, not just 1 game in Europa. 3 or 4 quality players and its possible.
