Martin O'Neill appears to be weighing up a return to a more traditional two-man attack at Celtic, with signs that he could pair Duran and Hogh together this season. The idea has quickly caught attention because it would mark a notable tactical shift and could change the way Celtic build their forward play.
The discussion has grown after O'Neill dropped hints about using two strikers rather than relying on a lone front man. A Duran-Hogh partnership would offer Celtic a different balance in attack, potentially giving the side more presence in the box and another clear target for teammates in advanced areas.
There is also an obvious emotional pull to the debate, with comparisons already being made to the famous Henrik Larsson and Chris Sutton combination. While any new pairing would have to earn its own reputation, the reference point shows why supporters are interested in the possibility of Celtic reviving a system that once brought major success.
O'Neill was in focus around the Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park, and his latest tactical hints are likely to keep attention on how Celtic line up when the new campaign begins. If he does move toward two up top, the potential Duran-Hogh partnership could become one of the most closely watched themes of Celtic's season.
