Amazes me why some fans want to see loan deals for Wanyama and McCarthy when both have had long term injuries and not back to full fitness, we going to take them and and help rehabilitation process for a few months?

We should almost never take any player back who has left the club. It should be known that players get one chance at Celtic and if they choose to leave, there’s no way back for them. I would make exceptions for guys like Liam Henderson as he didn’t want to leave.

Almost never; is, well, self explanatory.

I agree COYBIG different if a player had given a good few years and not just a season or two.

We don't operate as a respectful club. We pimp ourselves out nowadays.

Which is fine to an extent but should not be a long term plan.

I have no problem players coming back if they are still in prime of their career and not just wanting whined down with a final pay day.
Not that I think it will happen but wanyama would greatly improve our midfield so he'd be more than welcome home.

Just to be clear, the only exceptions in my book are guys who didn’t choose to leave the club. That means it should be a flat NO to Wanyama, Forster, Roberts. Armstrong, Dembele, Van Dyke.

If van djyk, the best centre back in the world right now, was available and wanted to sign for us you'd chase him? Thank feck your not in charge at parkhead.

So hypothetically speaking at say the age of 29/ 30 you wouldn’t have VVD, Wanyama, Roberts, dembele in your team? These guys didn’t leave Celtic the club because of mass fall outs or because the hated the club. They left because if the league and standard of Scottish football. Again hypothetically, if we played in the EPL, were we’d be in a level playing field financially Andy could attract all the top players, do you think the guys mentioned would’ve been chapping to get out the club?

Yeah because van dyke says to us he wants to come back. we are clearly going to say no haja.

Can undwrstand players wanting to test themselves in a better league and also wanting to earn more money etc and sometimes we just have to experience that the grass is not always greener on the other side. I think however if a player wants to come back then he enters into our pay structures and doesn't pretend to receive the same salary he was getting elsewhere.

Kev83, the point is, as soon as you start taking players back, it sends the wrong message to others who might fancy a shot at the pub league because what have they got to lose? They can always come back if it doesn’t work out. So yes, I would say no to Van Dyke as well. Let me ask another question. Would you be happy to bring in Van Dyke and then lose Tierney, Calmac, Christie and Forrest in the next window?

I don’t think is sends any message to current players if an ex player comes back. Money talks these days and most ( not all) will have there head turned by the dough. It’s like any line of work, if another company offers you double your money your off, if not your seriously considering it. The players you’ve mentioned ie, VVD, Wanyama, Forster, dembele, Armstrong even, each one of those players would enhance our squad no end. Just because they left to play ( what they feel is a higher level) shouldn’t mean the door is shut on a possible return some day. I’ll ask you a question COYBIG, a fully fit Forster or Gordon in goals for you? A VVD in defence or a boyata, jozo, hendry? There’s two out your list would be in my back four right now no question.

As far as ability goes, I would agree with you but how long would they be there? 12 months, maybe 18, before they follow the money again and then we’re probably in a worse position than we started because we then have to find two players of the right ability, who are the right age, who are available, who we can afford, who will accept our wage structure, who won’t move at the first opportunity to Bournemouth or Huddersfield for 30 pieces of silver, who have a good attitude. and that’s not easy.
