"Usually we have four weeks of pre-season. I did not have pre-season. Before I came, I knew that if I don't win games I am going to be in trouble because this is part of the job. But I am pleased to be here. I know where we are now. I am not an underdog. In context, I knew that this kind of situation could happen. I need time. Give me time and you will see my team."
"You are going to see what I am going to do because you can see already what I did before. I didn't start [in coaching] yesterday. If you do your job you will see the way I want to play, the way I defend, the way I want to attack; it is clear. It is totally normal that you guys, you kill me. I am fine with that. I am totally fine with that because I know where I want to go."
Wilfried Nancy has defended his credentials to manage Celtic and asked for context and time amid a troubled start. Celtic have lost five of Nancy's seven games, including a 2-0 defeat to Motherwell that prompted particular concern about squad performance. A loss in the upcoming Old Firm fixture would intensify pressure and could allow Rangers to draw level in the table. Both Celtic and Rangers trail Hearts in the Premiership. Critics have questioned Nancy's frequent use of a three-man defence, and the club board face a January decision on spending or reassessing the appointment.
