The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Trying to

Bid for Idah turned down by Norwich.

Trying to buy on the cheap...as usual.

[From the Bunker]

Idah is Irish and I always hope for Irish Lads to succeed. But I think Celtic should stay away, He's not good enough.

That's a bit harsh...thought he done really well at Celtic. The lad has talent, no doubt. He came from Norwich with his confidence really low and BR got him enjoying his football again, sometimes if you find the right club and manager it can do miracles for your career. BR will develop him further and make him a better player

A few fans already on to voice discontent at the visit to the White House and genocide Joe yesterday.

[bennydorano]

Idah & Norwich would likely get much more money by joining/selling to some Championship or League One team tbh. The biscuit tin mentality will never leave.

I'd be very happy to see him stay.

I see Celtic have bought a 'project' keeper.

Kasper Schmeichel rumoured to be signing up also. Similar to Hart in a way.

[GTP]

Kasper Schmeichel signs on one year deal. Need to start filling other gaps in the squad.

[From the Bunker]

Kasper is a good signing. Has plenty of International experience.
One year deal, buys time to find or develop a Keeper.

Ironically he is older than Joe Hart!

we have also signed a Finnish keeper so it gives him time to develop

[snoopdog]

Christian Erikson would be a good fit for Scottish football. Not sure what his wages are though.

Brilliant PL/CL level signing and at 37 there's no reason why he couldn't do 2 or 3 years if he's feeling fresh and still has the hunger. Remember Van Der Sar played for MU from age 34-41, the Fulham years was complete twilight zone stuff, he should never have been there and for so long. It was absolute lunacy that Leicester let Schmeichel him go and it backfired as they were relegated at the end of that season.

Don't underestimate the value of signing a proven captain too, that should help set and maintain standards. I always remember someone saying to me that the UEFA Cup final team of 2004 had 6 or 7 international captains starting, when you think about it, a team like that wouldn't take much managing.

I think KS was Denmark's POTY about 4 times in the last 8/10 years.

A decent goalie will save Celtic points in Scotland but a real quality keeper will keep a load of clean sheets.

Need to add more quality to the panel now. A few lads shipped out - got £2m profit on Oh I think. Good bit of business there. Need more lads shipped out and tighten the wage bill.

I thought Oh was decent, a bit raw obviously but had potential.
