sjc Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Agreed, especially as Maloney has relied in his pace more so than Commons, which is why Im guessing why the article is bollocks. I can only assume whoever wrote this has never seen Oor Efe in action. Usual paper talk I'd guess. They love an OF transfer rumour in at the Glasgow media!

TheCelt67 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 “@bbcjimspence: Celtic have approached @dundeeunitedfc to speak to Gary Mackay Steven about a pre contract agreement.” Hopefully some truth to that, I reckon he'd be a great signing.

bhoy who invented weetabix Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 No chance Thats actually right up our boards street. Rather than offer, say £1million to sign him now we would rather wait till June and try to get him for nout and risk losing out to Sheffield Utd or Wolves or similar pish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoy who invented weetabix Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 In other news the legend that was Jo Inge Berget has gone back to Cardiff after we surprisingly declined to extend his loan. He came, he saw, he was pish and he fucked off thankfully. One of THE worst players I have seen in a Celtic shirt along with Amido Balde and Mo Camara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Left Wing Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Hopefully some truth to that, I reckon he'd be a great signing. Why? What makes you think that? It certainly can't be his performances against us, and if a guy with his alleged talent can't produce a decent end product against our woeful defence, then he ain't all that. We need players that walk straight into the starting 11, so who gets left out to include GMS? We have enough diddies that see a lot of ball yet do fk all with it. I hope we don't waste a wage on him.

gannonball Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Hopefully some truth to that, I reckon he'd be a great signing.Its strange, weve been linked with him for a year or two now. The first time we were linked I wasnt too fussed, yet he hasnt improved much since however now I would say he would be looking at getting in the team, shows how much we have gone back.Hes a tremendous talent but lacks consistency, maybe joining us might give him that kick up the a*rse he needs to kick on a a player.

Contra Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Not really going to improve us, it would be a signing that lacks ambition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Brees Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Agreed, instead we should keep throwing mud at the wall hoping some of it sticks rather than going for players who are proven to have the ability to perform in the league we actually play in.

Contra Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 He's half the player Forrest is, signing him would be a waste of a jersey. I'd rather we gave Henderson a chance out wide rather than waste a jersey on GMS, at 18 Henderson has real potential to be a top player and GMS hasn't exactly progressed much in the last few years as expected.

Drew Brees Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Forrest is a waste of a jersey. He lazy, doesn't track back, too many mistakes, too lightweight and offers nothing unless coming on for the last 20 minutes when teams are tired and haven't set up to mark him out the game. Nothing more than an impact player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree. You are correct. And as Sheffield United seem to be the front runners to sign GMS, we are doing nothing to change this. I know what pond we are pissing in, but surely you have to aspire to be better, even if only slightly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Brees Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 You could fill a page listing the foreign duds celtic have wasted money on when we should have went for players like fletcher, Russell etc. players who we know can perform at the standard we're at..

I know what pond we are pissing in, but surely you have to aspire to be better, even if only slightly? I think where you go over the edge is where you stop buying players to improve your team, but instead look on them purely as short term sellable assets. Celtic reached this during the Lennon years. It's not a case of "we've bought someone cheap that we can build a side around" - it's "If he's half decent we can punt him for a few million and replace him with someone worse". That's why the decent players Celtic have recruited over the past 5 years are gone - like Wanyama and Forster. Leaving you with the utter crap no one else wants, like Nir Bitton and Izaguirre.

Contra Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 How many times have you seen Henderson play? Every time he's played for the first team and a few development games and friendlies why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
