Anybody heard anything about big wanyama being seen up in Scotland tonight. don't know if it's just gossip or for real.

No but I want window to shut as too many reports coming out about Edouard being wanted that not the worst but it’s the fact we are reportedly after unknown strikers who may have to replace him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Haven't heard anything about wanyama but I honestly reckon we'll get him on loan for the rest of the season, he's totally frozen out at spurs and if sinclair moves I'm sure we can cover his wages for 6 months or so.

As for edouard I reckon it's all bullsh*t and it's just the papers trying to stir stuff again by linking him to Leicester, apparently ajer and mcgregor were certainties to leave in the summer so I wouldn't look to much into it.

Celtic have just banked 25m from Tierney and made a decent amount from the Europa league run so I don't think Lennon and the board are daft enough to sell him and possibly lose the title, I've no doubt he'll end up in the premier league but just not at the moment.

Nikola katic who plays for rangers obviously he’s young and a Croatia international I know this would never happen but if Celtic and Rangers did do business he would be one player I would take from them him and Jullien would be absolute solid in my opinion plus katic would also make Celtic a huge profit aswell I know it would never happen but guys what’s your thoughts?

I've never seen the problem signing a player from them if he's good enough.
I remember getting shot down for saying I'd sign boyd from them when they were in trouble because hed have scored even more with us because at time we played to his strengths.
Plus it would have shown them how far ahead of them we are.

Rightfully shot down.

dont think victor will be arriving.

Kev83 do you believe if we had made an offer for Boyd he would have come to us, the man has an intense dislike of us so there was no chance of him ever considering any offer.

Agree0 Disagree0

Batter 7 Mil in and the new striker is ours he willing to come? I don't hold my breath on that but I hope it comes he looks real good striker scores plenty.

Apparently we have bid €8m for the striker from Le Havre, do you know if there is any truth in this ed007?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - We've been in contact with Le Havre about Kadewere but I don't know of any bid yet although it is all over the bastion of truth that is social media.}

07 Jan 2020 16:39:18
Cheers mate I think if we are bidding €8m for players, it will surely be eddy's eventual replacement.

A lot of stuff flying about that Man U and Spurs are interested in him and he is keen to go, don't know if any truth in that either though.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I think that's all just paper talk.}

07 Jan 2020 17:16:28
ED007 do you "le havre" your doubts on this report (I'll get my beret)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - 🤦‍♂️

07 Jan 2020 17:53:12
Said it before that eddys replacement will be signed before eddy leaves, just like eddy was always going to be dembele replacement.

That's the Slovan Bratislava president urging us not to miss out on Sporar yet again. If there's so much interest from so many clubs why is he so desperate for us to put a bid in? It's not like Sporting Lisbon and Al Gharafa don't have plenty of cash to chuck about.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

07 Jan 2020 17:24:04
I'm not sure if they're desperate for us to put a bid in mate he was maybe just saying he's surprised we haven't followed up after holding talks 2 weeks ago, it seems as if the guy is just mentioning teams so they can ask for a bigger price.

Got to be sceltic of the Slovakian league as bayo scored 18 goals before January last season but hasn't really done anything since he came here, but then again this guy sporar is scoring goals in the Europa league and seems far more accomplished.

Time will tell kev if we go for him but judging by our past transfer activity we will probably miss out on him and go down the loan route during the last week of the window.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Jan 2020 17:35:17
If what he says is true and we've held talks and then not followed it up two weeks later then to me that looks like he's probably not our first choice and that his club are trying to get us back interested by going on about all these teams chasing him so that we rush into a bid.

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2020 01:54:00
100% mate, if we wanted him that badly after holding talks then I'm sure he would be close to being a celtic player by now but I reckon we've got a list of targets and are playing the waiting game before jumping straight in.

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Jan 2020 13:27:06
Celtic apparently interested in le havre striker tino kadewere, 17 goals in 19 apps this season and valued at 10m.
Andraz sporar deal looks a non starter as supposedly we haven't made any sort of offer since talks started 2 weeks ago and according to his club they've had concrete bids from sporting Lisbon and another club.

Personally can't see us spending big on a striker this month will more likely be a loan deal the last few days if we free up some wages.

Looks like Sinky's 30k a week are now freed up.

I wish him all the best 👍.

Seen this today and yes need a striker one that Lennon might play anyway, Lennon has issues with a lot of the squad he only plays his pals, Sinclair booted out, shved not given a chance, crying for a striker so eddy can drift back into that left side but won’t give griff or bayo a run, the Nonsense about griff or bayo not being fit is just that

they have been in training for long enough now no major injury set backs yet they don’t make the bench

Lennon is needing a boot up the arse imo play your squad you have or why are they there, yes we need a centre back a midfield enforcer and a striker but give these guys a run too arzani and shved and griff that left peg is magical at times and bayo will score proved this in pre season and the few outings he’s had that he can be dangerous.

Agree1 Disagree0

Totally agree mate, we should be giving our fringe players more of a chance.
I personally think we need to switch the system now because it feels as if rangers have cracked it and know how to stop us playing, hence the reason they've played us off the park the past 2 games.
They're stopping our midfield from playing which as a result leaves edouard totally isolated up top and we're also looking suspect at the back at times, especially ajer recently with cross balls.
A 3-5-2 imo with elhamed back in would give us far more solidity with frimpong at right wing back, this would then allow us to play two up top whilst also proving width.
As much as I like Forrest and his stats are good he blows hot and cold far too often and is like a schoolboy when we play rangers, so a run out the team might give him a boot up the backside to stop the complacency.
Griff and edouard up top with a packed midfield to counter them would ask far more questions against teams than the way we played against them in both games last month.
We look far too predictable and it's definetely time for a change.

Lennon going back to how he was before by playing his buddies no matter how bad they are playing and not giving anyone else a chance.

Any truth in possible Adidas strip deal, or just rumour?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

07 Jan 2020 14:52:42
It's a rumour just now as it stands but expect to hear more the next few months when our agreement with new balance is coming to an end.

Footyheadlines who are highly reliable and usually get it spot on said an agreement was in place with us and adidas so here's hoping!

I personally think new balance has been a waste of time and the strips have been horrible, whereas adidas tops are usually stunning and would bring far more income to the club if a deal works out.

Well sinclair gone Christie ban who is coming in? Is lawell challenges the sfa? Who knows? Things are very strange indeed.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

07 Jan 2020 10:35:13
They've made a statement 're Christie they've enquired about players lenny has admitted it whether we het them is the point and sinc will free up reputed 40grabd a week if he goes what's strange about it.

Sinclair left training camp for Preston talks true or false?

It's being widely reported. Good luck to him if he goes. Just a pity he is leaving after being treated poorly.

I still remember his first goal against Hearts, what an introduction that was.

Agree1 Disagree0

07 Jan 2020 07:28:52
He’s been treated pretty shabbily to be honest. i get that some managers come in and have got players they rate and players they don’t. but how Lewis Morgan especially was getting in there before Sinclair god only knows! I wish him all the best and he’ll be a big part of our history for years to come!

Agree1 Disagree0

07 Jan 2020 07:49:36
Gutted by this. It should have been him and Ely battling it out for the left wing.
Johnstone, morgan and hayes added together won't get anywhere near Sinclair's goal count and none of them will ever been as good a player as he is.

Agree4 Disagree0

07 Jan 2020 09:07:06
I really hope the club don't price him out of a move. he has been treated badly and should be allowed to go for free. he will always be a Treble Treble Legend. Hail Hail Sinky.
