Mr_Danger Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 15 hours ago, PunkStep said: Spot on, all of this. I can't see him carving a starting place at Bayern at all- he seems to be better suited to a free role, which he certainly won't have there. As you say, you look at Colombia and the rest of the team is built around him. He'd be better suited at a club (smaller?) where that can happen, but most clubs are instantly ruled out with his inflated wages after a number of high-profile transfers. Maybe one of the big Italian clubs would be suitable for him. Napoli perhaps? Thought one of the Milan teams would have been all over that. Especially with  Italians being the King's of unorthodox loan deals. I agree he is the epitome of a high class luxury player. He doesn't offer enough to be an out and out forward but won't have the spit and steel required to play further back but let him play his position where everyone is built around him and he'll dazzle. Bit like Charlie Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a decade or more now before I get offered one I have heard rumblings about some sort of one-season only Wembley season ticket that might get offered to some members. I may go for that, but only if going to those games counts towards my loyalty points so I can get priority on buying tickets at the new gaff. I'm very sad. The one season passes have been confirmed by the club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically spent his time at Genoa. Anybody know if he is any good or is this just a hit and hope signing? Some may have watched some Serie A and seen him. Genoa had the option to buy but obviously decided against. Is there any reason why?  On 10/07/2017 at 8:38 PM, Devon Malcolm said: He was barely noticeable at Genoa, not really a regular starter but I don't recall him doing anything terrible. So he'll probably ace it in Scotland. Celtic have done a grand job the last few years of picking up players and prepping them for moves to the Premier League. Forster, Hooper, Kayal, Wanyama, Van Dijk, Dembele, etc. Some failures but more than covered by the successes. I particularly like their strategy of taking players out of contract in England for nothing. Dembele was ridiculously smart business. they'll hope the kid from Ipswich follows suit this summer.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2017 Kieran Tierney is probably next on that list (along with Dembele), isn't he? Surprised nobody has made a move for him yet. Liverpool could do worse- and probably will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members stumobir Posted July 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2017 Tierney's a brilliant young talent but still very raw, a move to the PL this season might be a bit premature. Another season with us and some exposure in Europe then he'll move on, I reckon. It's obviously early in his career but he's arguably the best talent Celtic have developed in my lifetime(gtf if you dare say McGeady). For all of Rodger's flaws, you really have to admire they way he brings out the best in young players. Stuart Armstrong's another that's come on leaps and bounds in the last season.  KT's a diehard too, gotta a lotta love for that kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted July 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2017 Tierney's homegrown so didn't count him or that little Dembele kid who is playing up about 4 age groups. Both should go on to bigger things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MungoChutney Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I was disappointed to see some of the players leave that Rick mentioned up there. Â Hooper in particular because I thought he had the chance to become a really well thought of player at Celtic but didn't really see him as being PL quality. I'll be absolutely devastated when KT leaves though, proper boyhood dreams stuff and such a grounded and mature player for his age too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westlondonmist Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Tierney is quality and have no doubt that someone like Southampton will come in for him next year. This season I think Armstrong will go and possibly Dembele, but I think it would be best to wait a year against Dembele. I also think McGregor has come on leaps and bounds this season but I think he would be best to stay at Celtic. I should trust Rodgers, the players he has brought in have generally been good. I even think Toure was a good signing for the start of the season when the defence was leaky the previous season. As Rick says he can do good with young players so could get the guy scoring 10 goals.

He hasn't been the same since his leg fell off the other year, but he's massive and can get his nut on it. Vital components for PulisBall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L_E_T_H_A_L Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 The Guardian and The Sun (among numerous others) are saying that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is likely to sign a new deal at Man United, as he is stunning the club's doctors with his recovery progress and is likely to be fit and ready to play by early October. Fucking hell. Struggling to work out how this team is going to line up with all these star players (with star egos to match). Rumours of plays being made to sign Inter's Ivan Perisic and a bid being put together for Eric Dier as well. United are going to be scary this season coming.

D@mm Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I can see Zlatan coming on for 20 minutes at the end of a game or playing alongside Lukaku or just behind him, I will be happy if he re-signs with United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted July 13, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 13, 2017 #NotThisSummer Though there would be something somewhat humorous in what may be your biggest season yet, losing Walker to Man City, Dier to United and Alli to Barcelona all in one window considering Ryan Sessegnon snubbed and decided to stay at Fulham, Joshua King would rather go to Everton and you're eyeing people like Soares and Demarai Gray to replace proven England internationals.
