Interesting.

Will probably enrage the EPL barstoolers on here.

All of which are covered by Everton. So why are they a tinpot club?

He's talking crap and contradicting himself. Celtic are a much bigger club than Everton but nowhere near as appealing to play for now. Celtic will never get top footballers in their prime looking to play for them while they're in that shite league.

I know the league is gone but the huns have had some luck regarding ref decisions the past 6 weeks,hibs denied stonewall penalty at ibrox,clear red cards against morelos three times,roofe clear red last night,offside equaliser v motherwell,even if celtic had been in touch i dont think they would have won it with the way rangers games are being officiated.Honest mistakes as they say.

That is ridiculous.

Everton have not won a trophy in nearly 30 years, they have nowhere near the tradition, successes, fanbase or history Celtic have.

The only difference is they have more revenue they take in and a billionaire owner who is willing to pump his own money into the club. That is how they afford Ancelotti on £11.5m a year.

They are a tinpot club relative to Celtic, never qualified for the CL, haven't won silverware in 30 years, a midtable club who have been terrible the odd time they get to Europe, smaller stadium, less fans etc.

Why do top class players play in the Chinese League? The same reason they play for a club like Everton. Money.

The league is not an issue for Celtic in competing with Everton for players, the money is though.

Deluding yourself pal if you think SPL holds much of attraction to any proper top rank player money or no money.

I'm not comparing them to Celtic. You need to stop posting before you think, as difficult as that may be for you

Reminds me of an old joke.

Winning trophies and CL football do, playing at Celtic Park on European nights do, the old firm derbies do.

You're deluding yourself if you think playing for midtable mediocrity is an ambition for players. It's why the likes of Everton, West Ham and Crystal Palace have to pay average players £100k+ a week to join them.

Yer man Haller took a 40k a week reduction from in wages at West Ham to join Ajax. Ajax aside, Dutch football is pretty shit at the minute.

Perhaps you need to stop replying.

Globally there's more people watch the Merseyside Derby than the Old firm one without a doubt.

The SPL isn't much of a step up from the League of Ireland and the Irish league FFS.

Another typical EPL, Sky Sports consumed gullible chap.

Ask the players who played in both which is a bigger deal? Doubt you'll hear many put the Merseyside derby up there. I'd also say that if Celtic drew Liverpool in Europe, it would have more people watching it around the world than the Merseyside derby. Any game with Liverpool involved is huge, they are one of the biggest club in the world so I don't see your point there.

You don't get Zlatan, Buffon, Pirlo, Maldini etc coming out and saying what an experience it was to play at Goodison Park or how they would love to do it some day. You do get that with Celtic.

I'm sure it was a fantastic experience when they were walloping Celtic three or four nil.

Players want to play at the highest level possible and Everton play at a higher level than Celtic even as a mid table premiership club.

VVD left Celtic to go to Southampton FFS.

Why is the penny not dropping here?

Van Dijk left Celtic because he could triple what he earned at Celtic. He did not leave Celtic for footballing reasons.

Southampton would have to dream about playing Celtic as they get embarrassed on the European scene on the rare occassion they get there by the likes of Hapoel Beer Sheva and the like.
