My only issue with this signing is this, since Ajax Amsterdam are the parent company, then why haven't they signed the boy up? Or is it just a case of someone seeing something that Ajax Amsterdam dont. Interesting i think.

He's still to take a medical and work permit supposedly.

Bham - I wouldn't worry about Ajax and defenders.

They said Veltman was a better prospect than Van Dijk, well we know what's happened there.

He looks brilliant and with Shev and Boyata permanent bomb scares I will take this young guy any day of the week.

Check him out on YouTube.

A bit unfair on Boyata Mp he was playing consistantly well and scoring some important goals up until injury.

Boyata ain't the answer Stan. i'll give him credit for getting back in the team and doing well in the spl but against decent strikers he's just not good enough! Don't know if this young guy will be the answer but I'm willing to give him a chance. looks quite aggressive in the challenge and good with both feet. if I'm being honest but I was looking for a bit more experience to be honest! Somebody maybe 27 or 28 who's played in Europe, but maybe we've got another bargain with this kid.

Time will tell mate we all want a Stubbs or an Elliot but not easy to find. I still think Boyata can do a job for us he has improved dramatically under BR, he had plenty scary moments before BR came in but I think it's unfair to say he has had any prior to injury. I think Jozo had some very slack passes in the Astana game but they were ignored because of the score and everyone talking about how well Bitton played. That said, Jozo is a class act and I don't recall him having any poor games. Be good to see what our new signing has to offer I'm quite happy with us having Jozo, Boyata, Ajer, and Coatzee. Erik for me has been the bombscare so would bite the hand of anyone offering ยฃ3m for him.

Boyata had a great season once he got in and scored quite few goals.

Agree1 Disagree0

22 Aug 2017 12:16:52
I'd prefer a Marc reiper over Stubbs and Elliot thought he was outstanding for Celtic
Take nothing away from the other 2.

Anyone know what the transfer fee is on this one?

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Aug 2017 13:21:35
Supposedly 800k.

Great player Marco would be hard for me to seperate the 3. I enjoyed watching Stubbs not so much for winning the ball but because he was a fantastic passer of the ball from the back almost all diagonal balls to the wingers went to feet. Thought Kennedy was going to be very similar until injury.

Bit strange that there is nothing on the Club website?

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Aug 2017 15:55:33
Didn't Ed say the other day that no deals are likely to be announced until the team are back at the end of the week?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I just can't see the Club and their PR department announcing any signings without Rodgers there for the pictures.}

21 Aug 2017 19:22:19
I see cape town are saying we have signed Coetzee. no offical announcement.
I will wait until it is announced, after all we still await his arrival in Glasgow and taken a medical.
He still has to agree terms and i will wait till i see him in the green and white.

Hearing the Cape Town team have announced the sale of the CB to us.

Believable2 Unbelievable2

21 Aug 2017 15:08:23
hearing the paddy deal won't be done until the end of the week, they are also going to be two other signings before the end of the window, a centre half and a striker.

I thought that it wouldn't be announced until Friday or Saturday. BROWN and the squad probably won't arrive home until Thursday and I think they will wait until they get back.

Rumour is that we are trying to sign Chuba Akpom from Arsenal he is 21 year old and Leeds are trying to sign him aswell.

Bloody hope not! rather we just went for one of our youngsters if that's the best we can do! Had a look at his recorded, been loaned out a few times and hardly a goal in sight! Thanks but no thanks!

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed007's Note - He seems lazy and he doesn't seem like the type of player that's willing to work hard to better himself and he has a serious attitude problem - the Brighton fans booed him off the park last season when he was on loan there.
I can't see there being any truth in this at all.}

21 Aug 2017 15:50:09
His scoring record is awful ED! And if your saying he's trouble then can't see this happening at all! Surely can do better than this! U heard anything more on wee paddy ED? Was hoping it would be done today or tomorrow.

Agree2 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - There's nothing finalised between us and City yet but there's no way the PR department would allow the announcement when Brendan Rodgers is over in Kazakhstan. He'll be front and centre with that twinkle in his eye and those pearly whites beaming out and with his arm around Paddy who's holding the No.7 jersey.}

Hi Ed. Just watching the city v Everton match and l see Peter lawell is at the game. Image to sort out the last of paddys deal l hope.

Agree2 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Hopefully - or maybe he's got a surprise up his sleeve.}

22 Aug 2017 13:57:00
surely not that dud wilfred bony too? lol.

21 Aug 2017 10:17:39
Ed, Akpom from Arsenal. We getting into the silly end of the window when we are linked with everyone or is there substance to it?

Believable1 Unbelievable1

{Ed007's Note - I'd be surprised if there's any truth in that one, the guy's garbage and he has a real attitude problem. I don't see him as a Rodgers type at all.}

21 Aug 2017 13:56:20
What about Sardar Azmoun ED?

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed007's Note - Hasn't he just resigned for Rubin Kazan? And I'm sure Lazio were quoted - and agreed - an 18 million Euros fee for him by his previous club Rostov.}

21 Aug 2017 15:15:26
Just heard his name was mentioned! Bit out of our price range then!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Yeah I'd reckon so even if he was available.}

21 Aug 2017 10:32:16
When the story first broke I assumed it was just to fill column inches, but reports are claiming a move for Coetzee is going ahead. I'm surprised that we're not linked with somebody with more European pedigree but as I've never seen him play I have to trust the scouts and the management.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

21 Aug 2017 11:32:14
He is injured now.

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Aug 2017 11:34:35
Yeah I read that but the South African press are still saying he's flying to Glasgow to finalise a move.

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Aug 2017 15:04:40
Doubt it will be a goer if scans come back saying he's tore his hamstring?
