I've had the feeling for a while we have a disproportionate number of left-footers in the squad and finally got round to totting it up... indeed almost half of our contracted first-teamers are lefties - ten of 23, or 44%. I've somewhat spuriously ignored the loanees because they're all right-footed, but even with them in it's 39% - almost double the average for footballers. We struggle badly at the back, and we have to allow Powell in as an honorary member (Transfermarkt lists him as "both-footed", although I reckon he may have just told them that ) but we can just about field a full team: Bursik Doughty Fox Tymon Clucas Vrancic Thompson Ince Powell Campbell Fletch I wonder what the record is for left-footers in a starting XI...

Celtic usually play 11 don't they?

There’s a far higher percentage of lefties posting on this message board, they’re the ones to be wary of👀

Powell is definitely right footed!

We had a lot in the mix for the 2018/19 season. When we lost at home to Shrewsbury in the cup, we started with six (Martins-Indi, Tymon, Clucas, Adam, Ince and Campbell) and brought on McClean from the bench. Man City had eight on the pitch a few seasons ago.
