    Get him back, clearly guys like him, Parker and Thompson were who gave Lennon the success he enjoyed with us originally.

    Meh, Lenny has a more admirable physique IMO. Old man trying to stem the tide. Embrace it! Be like Neil!

    JOHAN MJALLBY has admitted that Neil Lennon tried to bring him back to Celtic during his second spell as manager of the club.

    Mjallby assisted Lennon when he first took the reigns at Parkhead in 2010 and also worked with the Northern Irishman at Bolton. The pair shared four season together as team-mates at Celtic.




    Speaking to the Celtic Huddle Podcast, Mjallby has revealed that there was a conversation regarding his potential return to Parkhead when Lennon returned to succeed Brendan Rodgers in 2019.


    “We had a brief chat about it when he got into the door,” he said.

    “He was interested to try and bring me on board, but that fizzled out a wee bit which was fine.



    “I think he was quite happy with his assistants. They had a poor season this year, but he had no problem working with John the previous season.

    “There was probably no other way it could have ended because it’s such a results driven business - especially when you are manager of Celtic.”


    Lennon left Celtic in February, but his former assistant believes he will be a successful manager elsewhere once again.

    “It’s obviously still sad as I respect him a lot as a person and especially as a manager,” he contined.

    “I think Neil is an excellent manager and is a true Celtic legend.



    But I’m confident he will come back and be successful with another team somewhere else.”

    FORMER Celtic defender John Mjallby has revealed how Rangers' 2012 financial implosion eventually led him to quit as Neil Lennon's assistant manager.

    The Swede says the Ibrox side's administration - and subsequent liquidation - meant he ended up demotivated.

    Mjallby left his role in 2014 having spent a total of 10 years at the club since 1998 - six as a player and four as a coach.

    The 51-year-old said of his spell as assistant: "We signed a lot of good, young players cheaply and they turned out to be real stars for the club. The balance of power in Glasgow was shifting again.



    Everybody knows that happened to Rangers and my motivation in the job disappeared a wee bit when they imploded. It was a shame in that sense, as you always need a big rival."

    Lennon brought Mjallby back to the club as his assistant manager in a move that was warmly welcomed by the supporters and the duo formed a strong double act to clinch their coveted first league title as a management duo in 2011-12.



    The Swede helped the club win three Scottish Premiership titles in a row and a notable success over star-studded Barcelona in November 2012.

    The 49-times capped former Sweden international said: "The call to become Neil's assistant came right out of the blue. After we both retired, I knew Neil had started to work with the youths and was part of the under-21s setup. We met up and he told me that he wanted to bring me on to the staff if he landed the Celtic job or got a gig elsewhere.

    "Lenny trusted me, my ability and the way I looked at the game. My character. What an opportunity we had. There were no guarantees of success but we wanted to give it a go and see what we could do.

    "We had three months left of the 2010 season and won all the remaining games but we lost in the Scottish Cup semi-final to Ross County which was a shock defeat - we didn't really think we would land the job on a permanent basis



    "Peter Lawwell gave us the green light and it was fantastic to be back working with players with great ability. It was a great four years in management alongside Neil and it was an amazing experience.

    "It is nice to say that I spent 10 years of my career - six as a player and four as an assistant manager - in Glasgow with Celtic."
