Ronny Deila: 'I will not quit Celtic'

By Shane Callaghan, Reporter | 05 November 2015

A defiant Ronny Deila has no plans of quitting Celtic as their season took another turn for the worse by losing 2-1 to Molde in the Europa League.

Under-fire Celtic boss Ronny Deila has insisted that quitting is not an option as their Europa League hopes hang in the balance following Thursday's 2-1 defeat by Molde.

First-half goals from Mohamed Elyounoussi and Daniel Berg Hestad, either side of Kris Commons's equaliser, saw the Bhoys stutter at Parkhead as they remain bottom of Group A.

Deila's side sit three points behind second-placed Fenerbahce and one adrift of Ajax in third, and the Norwegian, whose side failed to reach the Champions League group stage, is determined to turn things around.

"I love being here. I want to be here," Deila, whose troops are six points clear of second-placed Hearts in the Scottish Premiership, told BT Sport.

"We can develop a lot. I'm going to work so hard to do that and turn this [situation] around. We are in a good position domestically. In Europe we haven't had good enough results recently. But we still have a chance to go through."

The Premiership champions are back in action on Sunday for the visit to Ross County.
