Nancy’s Formation Falls Short On First Test | But He Must Be Given Time To Get It Right (Preview)

It was never going to be straightforward for Wilfried Nancy as he stepped into the shoes of a Celtic legend like Martin O’Neill – and Sunday’s debut highlighted that fact. A 2–1 defeat to Hearts wasn’t in the script for the Frenchman, and the early adoption of his preferred 3-4-3 setup has already raised eyebrows among the Celtic support. Nancy appears committed to the system, given the success it’s brought him elsewhere, but the hope now is that it begins to click with this squad sooner rather than later. With huge fixtures against Roma and St Mirren in the League Cup Final coming up this week, he’ll know – fairly or not – that time is not on his side. Finding that winning formula quickly is essential, and he’ll be desperate to put things right as quickly as possible. 🎙️ Join Tino & Conor as they break down an intriguing afternoon at Celtic Park, as Wilfried Nancy’s Celtic fall short in the top-of-the-table clash with Hearts.
