Massive game for Celtic tomorrow now! A win against them in a couple weeks could give a nice wee cushion for this early in the year. Still a bit worried by the quality in the squad. I can't really think of good players Celtic have brought in? What's big Julien at currently, why's he looking out? Seems to have put the feet up and stink the place out!
Jim i have to disagree with you pal...I think it's the best squad we've had in a while, there is 2 men for each position with still a few signings to come in and ship a few out. C Jullien is the rotten apple in the barrel in the club and needs flushed out ASAP, spit the dummy out and Ange doesn't have players like that around him...Funny how all the French players gave trouble and downed tools at some point.
Big game tomorrow alright. I'm sitting here with 3 tickets and can't get over, just tried flights there for the morning and they're ridiculous price. Why would Airlines not sell unsold seats the night before for a reasonable price rather than have an empty seat...I don't get that.
Sevco had mixed results today, they're first penalty is the biggest joke. You really got to see what they got a penalty for and Hibs were denied one later for a worse foul. In saying that J Lundstrum's was never a red card but the Buffalo's was red and he knew exactly what he was doing, tried to smash the forearm into Hibs guy. Celtic win tomorrow and beat them in 2 weeks and that will be massive.
Jenz looks decent (although hasn't been tested yet)
Carter Vickers is good
Aaron Mooy looks decent, he'd be a £5m player we got for free
Jota is a class act
These guys were all signed this year.
Still need to ship out McCarthy, Ajeti, Jullien and put Mikey Johnston out on loan.
Maybe I'm under estimating the squad. I was just underwhelmed with the transfers that have been brought in. Celtic have secured a few fellas that they had already at the club but other than that I'm not sure who I'm excited about. Big Rogic leaving was a shock and I don't think he even has a club yet. Very strange he left considering he was playing great football again. Some dead wood knocking about the place though right enough.
Rogic was nothing but a personal decision. Jota and CCV were vital to re-sign. Are you forgetting that the team last year went undefeated for a very long stretch until the end of the season. That team only needed tweaks. This time last year we were relying on Academy players to fill in. Also, Celtic were missing key players for stretches. 4 players came in in January and now have the luxury of a pre season under Ange behind them now Still managed to maintain the momentum.
Jenz and Mooy look good additions. Bernabei is not up to speed yet. We are about to sign another winger, Haksabanovic who looks versatile. It's about the right player and person.
Siegrist is a step up from our previous second choice keepers.
