BigDoddyKane Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 We are not a physically strong or tall team. Yesterday showed that and europe this season also did. We will need a few 1st team starters bought in summer and they will all need to be filling that gap for us. We cant buy anymore lightweight players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said in the match thread yesterday I dont think Hatate and Rogic can really start in games like this unless injuries dictate so. The combination of Hatate constantly trying speculative killer balls and Rogic not really up to the graft means Mcgregor is left with far too much work do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 What’s the thoughts on the loan deals for Jota, CCV and Maeda ? Or all 3 options to buy likely to be taken up ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Europe it's not a physically game, yesterday's game was because Madden allowed Celtic players to be kicked and bullied. Referees in Europe are better at protecting players,the physically nature of our domestic game needs to catch up. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny you should say this about Madden as he’s been refereeing in the greek league recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong though. Aye, I thought the board would ensure permanent deals for the other two. Gives you continuity for next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’ll get Maeda without any issues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would fancy another cb with Julien alarmingly nowhere near the team. I assume Ideguchi is meant to be the new defensive midfielder, hopefully we see a bit more of him before the end of the season before deciding what our next step is with him. We still have a bit to punt too - Barkas,Boli, Ajeti and Soro would free up a fair whack of wages. Assuming we get more in I would like to see the likes of Johnston, Welsh get more games under there belt elsewhere like I said with Scales. I assume Karamoko is for the off permanently but I’m not that arsed tbh. Are you still thinking theres a route for Mikey Johnston? Good feet, but far to lightweight to ever make it at a high level would be my ill informed assessment. Needs to go abroad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be disappointed if we didn't get CCV not to bothered about Jota,Ange success in the market will continue with or without players that want to be here. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCV as I think your defensive stability this season has been a massive apart of your improvement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question should be can we find a left-sided CCV so Starfelt can play on the right of centre, Harte,Juranovic and Starfelt are a solid base. Ange has raised the level but not in every position, will be exciting to see where we will be in a years time. Ange's Celtic will be a pleasure to watch with hopefully a few scalps in Europe.

Appreciate Taylor and Scales are pish but Harte is now 44 and hasn’t played professionally for 7 years now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor was my MOTM at Ibrox so not pish but Ange will be looking for better in that position if Scales can't step up, getting rid of Boli will be the first step,Accepting the typo we could get another 2 years out of Harte but we will need a replacement. The Jota,Laxalt,Elyounoussi position seems to be a constant loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCV is a must we have to do what we can to sign him, Jota I’d also be looking to sign despite him being a little off the boil in the past weeks. The fact we finished the game with Ralston at left back and Welsh at right back shows where the obvious frailties are we need to address those positions immediately 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the introduction of VAR contact in the game is more and more scrutinized. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
