Six defeats in 10 and a second league loss have Celtic under the microscope, but Martin O'Neill refuses to hit the panic button.
Celtic are facing hard questions after another setback left them with six defeats in their last 10 matches. The second league loss of the season has sharpened the debate over whether the Glasgow giants are drifting backwards.
Chris Sutton and Ian McCall both gave their verdicts on the club's wobble. Sutton, a former Celtic striker, and McCall, a well-known figure in Scottish football, looked at the run of results and asked whether it points to a deeper problem or just a rough patch.
Manager Martin O'Neill is not conceding anything. He has stayed defiant in the face of the criticism and shown no sign of doubting his approach or his players, even as the losses pile up.
For a club that expects to dominate at home, a run like this is unusual and draws attention quickly. Celtic's next performances will show whether O'Neill's confidence is justified or whether the slide continues.
