Haissem Hassan shines despite Celtic dropping points against Dundee United

In, out, in, out, shake it all about. O’Neill or his coaching staff can’t seem to settle down on a starting XI, or anything close to it, and the Christmas lights are about to go up.

Whether it’s the forward line, changing centre-backs or even changing the goalkeeper. It has been a season of chop and change from those in charge.

That includes Hassan starting seven of his 15 matches this term in all competitions, and still waiting to complete 90 minutes of action.

But against Dundee United, the all-action winger earned himself a very healthy rating of 7.5 by Sofascore; that’s after receiving 8/10 from 67 Hail Hail following our ratings from the game.

Make no bones about it: this man is an entertainer, and his teammates just weren’t in the right place when he was constantly putting the ball into Dundee United’s box.

Whether that’s going down the line and putting the ball across the six-yard box or cutting onto his favoured left foot and dinking balls into the danger area.

Mika Baur had a huge chance to score from close range following a brilliant run from Hassan, but his effort was saved by the keeper.

It doesn’t help when you also sub off your best poacher – Hogh – and don’t allow him to feed off Hassan, so he can try to get out of this horrible goal drought.
