‘I despair’: Some Celtic fans react to Lennon decision in starting XI for tonight’s game

A number of Celtic fans have given their thoughts on the Bhoys starting XI picked by Neil Lennon for tonightโ€™s Europa League encounter.

The Hoops boss has made one change from the side which drew at Aberdeen last time out, with Scott Brown coming into the line-up against Lille.

Tom Rogic, who made his first Premiership start of the season last week, drops to the bench.

Scott Bain starts once again in goal as Vasilis Barkas, who travelled with the squad, remains on the bench with a shoulder issue.

Diego Laxalt, Shane Duffy, Kristoffer Ajer and Emmanuel Frimpong make up the back four, as they did last time out.

Brown and Callum McGregor line up in front of the defence, while Ntcham, Ryan Christie and Mohamed Elyounoussi line up behind Albian Ajeti, who leads the line.

Here is what some Celtic fans on social media have made of the starting XI, with some unhappy Rogic has been dropped:

Celtic will be hoping to bounce back from their 3-1 loss against AC Milan in their Europa League opener and end a run of three games without a win.

The Hoops were beaten by Rangers in the Premiership two weeks ago and, after losing to the Rossoneri, had to make to with a point in a 3-3 draw at Aberdeen.
