Who should we get in to replace hooper?. let's see who us celts want to replace him.

1.) 16 Jul 2013
Philipp Hosiner, also wouldn't mind the kid Jeff Hendrick (Derby) for our midfield! Cheers, Paul

2.) 16 Jul 2013
Surely Neil Lennon has known for a considerable amount of time now, that Hooper was for the off. I would like to think we are making moves at the moment. Well I would like to think so, I don't fancy Doyle though

Javier Saviola, Charlie Austin, Nic Bendtner Or Yannick Sabgo all possibilities in my opinion.

4.) 16 Jul 2013
I'd take ALF, Sharp and Austin.

5.) 16 Jul 2013
Off the top of my head and in no particular order

Le Fondre
Saviola
Marc Janko
Billy Sharp
Terrence Boyd (Rapid Vienna)

Any of the above would do me.

6.) 16 Jul 2013
I'd love to see us go for Hosiner but I can't see it. Second choice would be Charlie Austin.

7.) 16 Jul 2013
Rhodes! there's no better replacement. a goal machine like hooper used to be, a celtic fan who would fight for us and a young player who will no doubt end up at one of the top EPL teams. I would invest the money in him straight away. we'll be able to sell him again and it's not like we don't have the money.

8.) 16 Jul 2013
Philipp Hosiner.

9.) 16 Jul 2013
Think we should try and get Danny Graham good striker and seems surplus at sunderland Hull looking to get him on loan surely we could get him before them

10.) 16 Jul 2013
Without any doubt John Guidetti

11.) 16 Jul 2013
Think in terms of our budget and salary etc, only Austin is a possibility.

Make a move for him £2.5m which would be accepted due to the Hull scenario, and let our guys do the medical.

No two doubts about it, Jordan Rhodes.

If we won't pay (roughly 3 million) for Hosiner, who's only 24, we'd be as well chucking it. I'd also be looking at the German market for good young players/also Switzerland-far better value. Although I think Hendrick could be potentially a good signing, I'm sure Derby will have a crazy price on his head(like they do with the lad Hughes) - Championship players are well overpriced, generally speaking, for what they have achieved. The English market in general I would be wary about, for eg Henderson at Liverpool. I certainly wouldn't even be looking at someone like Sharp who is very average and also doesn't seem to settle anywhere (outwith Sheffield/Doncaster) Paul

14.) 16 Jul 2013
Finnbogason would be a good option but Heerenveen want €7m, they've also rejected a €2m bid from Augsburg.

15.) 16 Jul 2013
Le Fondre & Sharp surely worth a punt and within our price scale.

Adam Le Fondre. Every day of the week

A goal machine like hooper used to be? Some of our fans are idiots and fickle 31 goals he scored last season and deserves our respect for what he has done for us if he wants to move on then thanks for the service hooper u only get one career as a footballer and its his decision how he wants it to go
SOS BHOY

LE FONDRE: Good player. He's not just a goalscorer. He might not bag 30 goals a season but his work ethic would provide goals for others too.
SAVIOLA: His commitment to our cause would concern me. He has an illustrious history and the SPL is definitely a bit of a comedown for him.
JORDAN RHODES: Top class and would be worth every penny we could muster.
HOSINER: I don't know much about him but he seems to have a tremendous record.
CHARLIE AUSTIN: I believe he would be fantastic IF he was free of injury AND if he kept his trousers up. A problem child by all accounts and maybe too big a gamble for us.
JANKO: This guy was a hot tip to join us a couple of seasons ago and would still be a top guy in the SPL.
DOYLE: He doesn't seem to appeal to many of you. I can understand why as he is in some ways similar to Darryl Murphy (who was a flippin disaster!). But he runs all day long and is actually a really sharp finisher in front of goal.
FINBOGASON: Impressive lad. Check him out on YouTube for yourself.

If it were my call and I could only choose one of the above I'd go for Jordan Rhodes. He may be a bit pricey by our standards but I'd choose him because of his attitude. If he came up here with a sense of determination then he'd be truly magnificent. He doesn't bring any problems with him and he seems like a really switched on lad. (Tony Watt, watch and learn kid, watch and learn!).

Matej vydra who was on loan at watford last year. Think he is similar 2 hooper. Dnt know if we would pay what they want but possibly good loan signing?
Craigy

20.) 16 Jul 2013
No chance of Jordan Rhodes or matej vydra way past the transfer fee celtic would be willing to spend possibly looking at 10 million for each of them. also saviola is a non starter on to much wages. janko is not the same player he was several years ago adam le fondre will end up at west brom. kevin doyle is pish. only realistic one is Austin and with his injury concerns I doubt celtic will take a chance. I think they should try for lyle taylor still a young guy and could score goals for fun at spl level.

21.) 16 Jul 2013
So u dismiss every player any1 says and then say lyle taylor, GEEZ PEACE

22.) 16 Jul 2013
Celtic took the chance with big bad John. we should do the same with Austin

Nemanja Nikolic of Videoton would be great replacement for Hooper and would cost less than £1M.
Here's a wee clip of him in action

Most people seem to want adam le fondre. Would be in our price range and would score goals for fun.

25.) 17 Jul 2013
Bobby Zamora?

26.) 17 Jul 2013
Rhodes or Guidetti are good shouts. Bianchi is a decent cheap option. For me though, Jurgen Locadia would be a class signing. Big strong Dutch youth player had a good season last term.

27.) 17 Jul 2013
I am sure the man is already here, when he settles in, he will make GH goal tally look silly you know him he is class, he is Amido Baldé.

28.) 17 Jul 2013
We can basically rule out all known names except for the ones with poor statistics. One player I think would be great because of his age is pojanpalo at Helsinki. Could get him for 1m easy, he's a clinical finisher, fast, skilled, young. Also illicic and Hernandez at Palermo see like feesable players that we could attract as Palermo have been relegated.

I would be very surprised if you didn't sign Doyle with what Lennon is reorted as saying down here. Doyle was a cracking player when we signed him. Things have gone wrong big time at Wolves rubbish managers like Saunders, players with bad attitudes like Johnson & ohara. Apparently there has been open war fare on the training ground and I believe it has all affected Doyle. Hopefully a fresh start will see Doyle return, top bloke conducted himself with respect through all the s**t of the last 2 seasons, wish him all the best. Also think you will put a bid in for another Wolves player Griffiths.
Wolves.

Aye and Mo Bangura's going to come back fi Sweden and make us forget who Henrik Larsson was/is.

31.) 18 Jul 2013
Jordan Rhodes. Time to show a bit of ambition here. The lad is guaranteed to score tons of goals and I think would really play for the jersey. If we have sold Victor and r soon to sell Gary then why wouldn't we have the money to bring him in? I honestly can't think of anyone (who we have a realistic chance of signing) that I would rather see in the hoops. Alas, I fear we may have missed the boat. Should have signed him last year!

32.) 18 Jul 2013
Peter odinwengi
Nic Bendtner
David Nugent
Danny graham

All something to prove

Jordan Rhodes but toooooo pricey!
