Ed you heard anything regarding the young Swedish defender we've been linked with.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

{Ed007's Note - I've no idea who you're talking about, Mally.}

Thomas Isherwood from Bayern Munich. He’s only 20 which would cause me to doubt it as we need somebody at least mid-20’s to add a bit of experience to help guys like Ajer and Hendry.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - He certainly ticks all the boxes and it appears he is out of contract this summer although some of the reports say he has a year to run.}

Cheers ed seen a report we've been linked to a young Bayern defender who s out of contract.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - The sources are a bit dubious but I'll keep an eye out for any mention of him.}

Surely something would have to give in that case. Jozo, Erik and Boyata all leaving maybe? I just can’t see BR being happy to go with so many rookies.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I wouldn't be surprised to see all three of them leaving, Kev. I think there will be more outs than ins this summer, the squad is still needing trimmed down and more quality added. Word dripping down from within the Club is that Rodgers and Congerton were scathing in their assessment to Lawwell regarding the squad being able to make the next step in Europe.}

The worry is will PL do anything about it?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Rodgers will get everything he can off of Pedro and then some.}

With the VVD money, CL money and player sales (Dembele being the biggest asset) surely there is huge funds there to add quality to the team, particularly in defence. With players like Dembele, Bitton, Jozo, Boyata, Sviatchenko, Gamboa being moved on we should be expecting at least £30m in player sales. Be good to get half of that at least.

Our recent signings don’t suggest we will splash the cash. Hendry, Kouassi, Bain (loan) Morgan? Will they make us better in Europe?

Agree0 Disagree0

What's the word on MD being fit for Sunday ED?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - He should be fine.}

23 Apr 2018 22:53:43
Fingers crossed ED.

It is highly unlikely that we will buy a centre half in his mid 20's no matter what any supporter thinks. Why buy any player at an age when his transfer fee is at his highest? Doesn't make sense because if he is any good the richer clubs in Europe and any club in Championship or EPL would out bid us and we would only have wasted our time . If we cannot buy and play centre backs around 20 years old, we will have to forget about it.

The big clubs only have space for so many central defenders Chris. There have to be gems out there ready to be picked up.

I'm glad we've got a manager that has the full respect and backing from the board, it's good that both Rodgers and congerton can go to lawell and make demands. I'm also glad that Rodgers realises we need serious upgrades that defence won't cut it in Europe.

Good thing about the summer window now is that the window shuts down south on the 9th August, we could pick up a couple of players at a decent price that have been told they don't have a future.

Agree0 Disagree0

You would thinks, Kevbhoy, the top forty clubs in England and countless clubs on the continent can all out bid us easily in wages and buying price. Judging by the little bit of Enlish football I watch, there could be plenty of clubs needing centre halves . That is if you need to buy rather than coach and develop mistakes out of c/ b.

Brendan shouldn't be too scathing to Lawell as after all Brendan would have sold himself as an improver of young footballers and a man with a good eye for talent . After two years, he may look in the mirror if he hasn't the right personnel for bringing things foreward next season .
Luck of the draw is perhaps as important as the make- up of the Celtic team . I think it would be beyond us for a long time to qualify for Champions league out of either of the last two yrs.
