Given it’s unlikely we’ll get a striker as prolific as Shankland we need the rest of the team to chip in with more goals. Before January we certainly weren’t a one man team but did end up becoming over reliant on Shankland to carry us through in the league. His 24 goals were scored over 16 games, Moffat (5 goals over 4 games )and Moore (4 in 3 games). Out with the strikers the best was McDaid on 4.
From the players currently under contract for the upcoming season Forrest and McCowan seem capable of scoring around 5 each from midfield not so much Murdoch and Docherty.
If they stayed you’d be hoping Moffat, McDaid and Moore could add a couple more to last season’s total.
Adding a winger, a centre midfielder and a centre back who can help on the goal front might ease some of the burden on whoever is given the task of replacing Shankland.
As for Doohan I imagine whoever Celtic’s next manager is will have a look at him in pre-season especially with De Vries leaving, concerns over Gordon’s fitness and Bain being average.
Hopefully they bring in a new No.1 and we can get him back but since this is the club that once cancelled Scott Fox’s loan because their 3rd choice keeper got injured I’m not sure we should put our eggs all in the one basket.
