Celtic hope sprouts in Brussels for O’Neill

CELTIC manager Martin O’Neill has had good news on three fronts as he chases his first Champions League away victory against Anderlecht.

Alan Thompson, Chris Sutton and Stanislav Varga gave him some concern over the weekend having either suffered injuries or aggravated existing problems. But the trio appear to have recovered from the knocks and trained in the Stade Constant Vanden Stock last evening to try and prove they are ready to take on Anderlecht.

“Varga is feeling much better and will do a bit of training,” said O’Neill. “Alan and Chris are also going to train tonight.”
