Little question for everyone, would you like to recruit Patrick Roberts and James MaClean next summer or place your faith in Micky Johnston and Lewis Morgan.

10 Nov 2018 18:23:13
Mclean for selfish reasons . paddy ship has sailed for me but excited to see how the young bhoys progress think we’ve got a diamond in Morgan.

10 Nov 2018 18:39:51
James from the hills of Free Derry for me! 👍☘️.

Roberts yes McLean no.

10 Nov 2018 19:13:44
James McLean has never had the chance to play for us Paddy did and chose to leave.

10 Nov 2018 19:30:57
Both are worth a punt. Paddy isn’t £7m + tho which City want. Would take him for £4m- £5m.

Ryan Christie is a great example to Johnston and Morgan, that if you show dedication and determination to put in the work, then you can make it at the home of the Champions, playing great football in front of 60,000, winning medals and enjoying regular European competition. I honestly think there are other positions we need to improve either through injury, age and raising quality for CL games.

As a footballer I would prefer Patrick Roberts, I know McLean would be popular because of his background but I don't honestly think he would improve us on the park.
If Roberts could show the form of 2 years ago before his injury problems, then I think he could still turn out to be a top player.

10 Nov 2018 21:59:51
Wouldn’t want Roberts back because he’s not committed enough and it would create problems with my campaign to get his song converted to James Forrest’s song.

We all want a team of James Mclean's.

No1 James McLean
No2 James McLean.

10 Nov 2018 22:48:05
McLean is no better than hayes.

10 Nov 2018 23:56:57
Not one Celtic fan would even mention James McLean if he wasn't an Irish Celtic fan.

{Ed007's Note - It's a long list, Kev but seriously, McClean would do a turn in the league for us and the $hits and giggles alone would be well worth it.

11 Nov 2018 07:44:38
No 3 James McLean
No 4 James McLean
No 5 James McLean.

Wouldn't take either of them at this moment, we are going to need to invest elsewhere ie, going to need a right back and possibly two centre defenders and a striker over next two windows.
We have plenty talented wingers at the moment.

11 Nov 2018 10:21:42
Ed I do believe he'd make squad a bit better because he's better than Hayes but would he help us set up a level? I don't think so
Do you think it would be rubbishs and giggles or bombs, bullets or attacks in the street?

On a football point of few he wouldn't enhance the team a great deal and for money he'd cost not worth it

For his personal point of few would he put his young family through That?

{Ed007's Note - McClean would walk to Celtic Park to sign for us and he'd have the full support of his family and like Neil Lennon he wouldn't let the bigots dictate his life or stop him living the dream of playing for us.}

10 Nov 2018 16:48:45
Killie winning oh that’s a bonus if it stays like that hopefully we continue our recent performances tomorrow and I think we could go top of the league?

10 Nov 2018 06:48:13
Got talking at work and thought I'd ask you guys. Once fit should Rodgers let brown straight back in the team? Personally I think not, I believe he has a role to play still but celtic are playing faster/ better football without him. Also Rodgers has been down this path before with Gerrard who was getting to the end of his career so I would hope he learns from past experience.

10 Nov 2018 14:42:18
We played that way when he was in the team and can't see that changing.

10 Nov 2018 14:45:23
DO you reckon that will be calmacs long term position?
Ie a broony replacement?

10 Nov 2018 16:52:46
We play that way plenty with brown in the team. The whole team was playing under par that's why we were slow but now almost everyone has clicked into gear.
But saying that I don't agree ANY player has the right to walk into 1st team if it's playing well.

10 Nov 2018 18:00:27
for years we haven’t performed without him what he brings to the team just being on the pitch was the catalyst for everything good we did. Now it’s a great problem to have but when he’s back we really need to go with form players one thing we haven’t had for a while is consistency bhoys who have the shirt now deserve to keep going.

I just listened to Jonathan Sutherland interview with BR. Brendan slaps him down with "Typical Scottish negativity"when it was a positive night. A wee slug hurting badly along with his person media mates.
