Challenges The Celtic Champions League Challenge

[Cockers2505]

Can You Win the Champions League with a squad consisting entirely of local players

Thanks to @FuddledFox for helping me put this together

 

                

History - The Record

Celtic won the European Cup in 1967 with a team consisting of players born and raised in the vicinity of the stadium. Dubbed the Lisbon lions, they won the European Cup after beating Internazionale 2-1 in the final at Estadio Nacional. It was a 15-man squad, 14 of whom were born within 10 miles of Celtic Park and one born within 20 miles. 

The victory was compounded by the style in which they dominated the tournament. The Lions were known to be an expansive team, able to play with great alacrity. This victory will go down in history as the most complete and convincing, having achieved the intended purpose of association football – to groom local talent and increase the stature of the locality. 

Celtic were the first British club to win the European Cup, and still the only Scottish club to have reached the final.

This incredible achievement will never be replicated, with globalisation taking its effect on football and fans' increasing fervour for expensive signings. It is a record is assured of its standing in history. 

Challenge

Good luck mate, I've had a go and it's not as easy as it looks, the players out there don't stand up to well against the mighty giants in Europe, but please prove me wrong

We will have to improve. It’s really a challenge to find some good players to build a team for all competitions.
