Spoke to a friend today who told me Joe Ledley is expected to sign a new contract, He's asked for a small increase and celtic are expected to agree.

Also there is truth in the fletcher rumour.

Also celtic will be signing a young 20 year old Keeper from Udinese . the boy is suppose to be a real Gem . celtic will Loan him out until the end of the season until big Fraser leaves in the summer.

1.) Udinese don't have a 20 year old keeper on their books. they have 4 keepers aged 17, 25, 27 and 32. plus if he was a 'real gem' why would a. udinese sell and b. we loan him out? it just makes no sense.


2.) They have a Polish 20 year old GK out on loan at Latina?


3.) I'm on this site all the time reading rumours and I hear them myself and never post them as I never trust the source but this one I do that's why I posted .

All we can do is wait and see.

selboy


4.) The keeper's name is Wojciech Pawlowski, whether or not we are interested in him. Seems plausible though.


5.) 06 Jan 2014 22:15:47
Wojciech Pawlowski, could be the next Boruc!


6.) Would love to see Piotr Zieliński come from udinese. He is a cracking player watched him in a few games over the years and thought we should have signed two seasons ago when he was out of favour there.


7.) 07 Jan 2014 12:58:11
Watched him over the years Thot he was 20? Where did he fall out of favour at that young age


8.) The mackems have rejected an £8m bid from Hull for fletcher.


9.) At no time did I say celtic would sign Fletcher I said there were a genuine interest in him. I Said they would sigh the young keeper.

it's starting to get boring and annoying people taking a pop at pukki.

I really think a lot of people either don't go to game's or don't really know much about football.

Pukki seemed the only player moving at time's in the first half . Him movement off the ball is fantastic and had a good shot well saved .

You could have Larsson up front just now and it wouldn't make any difference as the football we are playing is total garbage everything is going out wide and nothing playing through the centre so if a striker is not getting any service and can he get into the game . Pukki tracked back into his own half 3 or 4 times today just to try getting into the match.

We have been playing a 4 - 5 - 1 moving into a 4- 4 - 3 using the 2 wide players as supporting strikers but it seems as if our wide players need to touch the ball before we score everything comes from a wide position there is no urgency or directness in our play, everything is slow .

Again Lennon makes the same subs takes off pukki for stokes and stokes can't get into the game WHY! because there is no change of tactics or formation everything is like for like . everything is sideway passes to let every opposition player get back .

I will always accept a 1 -0 win . I'm not complaining about the result, I'm just getting pis*ed off with everyone getting on our strikers back. we need to start trying to get our strikers into the game which does not involve humping the high ball up.

Selboy

selboy21

1.) Well said mate.Pukki done more than Stokes, Sammi and Forrest combined.The guy needs a partner to let him drop off, when will Lenny try him and Balde? It might just be a fit.


2.) Selbhoy stop talking p*ss if strikers are not doing there job its there fault pukki makes great movement has Emilio not been pumping balls into the box for no one to be on the end of them wait its other people fault humping the ball up Gary Hooper played with the same players exception of victor and could take his chances its the quality of strikers we have the chances are there to be taken no one is taking them

Ayrshire bhoy


3.) 01 Jan 2014 20:46:46
A really hope pukki does prove a lot wrong me included.
Am afraid good movement alone doesn't make u a good striker. Celtic have created more than enough chances in games he has been playing .
Don't think stokes and samaras are doing very well either although start of season stokes was, that much so everybody was demanding he played in Europe.
Am afraid to be happy with pukkis contribution for me means you either dnt go to games or you dnt no much about football.


4.) When ball is going out wide then the quality of cross AND the movement and anticipation of the strikers should produce plenty of goal attempts?
We have too many guys playing at 60-70% and a few who should never have been given the Hoops in the first place.
The fact that we are unbeaten and eventually keeping a string of clean sheets is a positive, but the standard of football and lack of flair and pace is taking the shine off it.
Clearly we have a lack of natural finishers at the club in all positions and we need a few additions to become more entertaining.

JJ


5.) Ayrshire Bhoy I think it's you who needs to stop talking P*sh or start going to the game's as if you where at todays game can you tell me what ball izzy put into the box that never went straight out of the park or 20 feet too high and almost out for a throw at the other side. Pukki had no service today. ran his legs off, will say he lost the ball twise and chased the man down almost 30 yards and won it back both time's .

any ball which was played through the middle was by big Vincent and it was a high ball and then the big keeper did the same when Sammy came on.
And as for gary Hoope we played a different style of football last season and hooper got most of his goals last December when he wanted out . he had long dry spells without scoring also.

selboy


6.) To Selboy21 you are 100% correct in everything you say izzy is the worst crosser of a ball I have ever seen.As for ayrshire bhoy you are correct on him as well talks constant p--sh never has a good word to say about anything celtic
like you, I doubt if he goes to certain games, how are the strikers going to score goals when they don't get any service in the box.jimbhoy


7.) 02 Jan 2014 00:24:34
Jimbhoy are you saying celtic are not creating any chances during the 1rst half of the season for strikers? A dnt think so there have been many a game when all we've been crying out for is some1 to put the ball in net and pukki has been playing along with other misfiring strikers. And a do go to the games
Monkeybhoy


8.) I'm not saying izzy's crosses are shocking but yesterday they were. Also pukki is not a striker whowill get onto crossed balls he;s more of a technical striker who need the ball to his feetor played in behind the defence to run onto but not high balls . Yesterday when the ball was played to his feet he had 2 or 3 great touches also beat 2 players and make Scott Fox pull off a fantastic save. Hooper never scored many headers from crossed balls but he did have the habbit of sniffing around inside the box when needed but again the team played different tactics.

All I'm saying is we are playing some very boring football, not good for the eye's stuff but we are still getting the result's . that's all that matters to me.

Some people never have a good thing to say about celtic on this page, I'm not always flattering but we need to give the players a chance mainly the new players .
Looking at our history players like Paul Elliott and Alan Stubbs but went on to be good players for the club . give the bhoys a chance and stop calling everyone who's not a superstar after a few games a dud .

and Happy new year to all.

selboy


9.) Agreed Pukki is a better player than his stats show. I think the boy is a much more aware and able footballer than for example Stokes. The whole team though is malfunctioning as we have players playing put of position.
Brooney playing far too ar forward on the right. Matthews playing as a winger. Mulgrew in the middle. WTF did we but Biton?
The team has no shape and as for the tactics what tactics? It looks like a man for man face off. We have better players and as such we will eventually score a goal by just having that wee bit better individual quality. I am shocked at what appears to be a crude and thoughtless approach by the coaching staff. I mean do they study the game, it appears not from the last 3 performances.
My biggest gripe however is the continual picking of favourites. The guys on the bench need game time. don't they realise we can put up with a 1-0 win or draw or even a defeat if its a good defeat that is if the young boys get a run and then at least they A have their chance so can't complain B get a chance to develop and C provide us long suffering fans with some interest and by proxy some entertainment.
I for one am thorougly sick of Sami, Ledley, Forrest who I have defended but who even I have lost patience with and Stokes. Biton Balde Atajic and fischer should be first pick or at least get 30 mins ame time.
Finally all this shi** about getting the league wrapped up asap is killing me. So what our manager is saying is let's completely destroy any interest whatsoever with a third of the league left so I can then have my own personal safety net to lose as many games as possible with no pressure. Who cares if we as fans and all the other clubs completely lose interest. Does he or any of th big wigs realise the stadium will be deserted. Wy not get the young guys in and sure drop a few points and at least we will have some extension of the competition even although we all know its a foregone conclusion that Celtic will win it easily. Bah humbug. Sopotcelt.


10.) Selboy and jimbhoy I'm going to have to step in here. Izzy got forward (as he always does so well) and put one straight on Pukkis napper in the first half. His crossing isn't bad at all and he's actually one of our most creative players. People having a pop at Pukki? More like people having a pop at Izzy.


11.) JimTim If you read my last post it says I don't think izzys crossing is terrible but yesterday it was . Izzy must have played about 12 crosses in and if one half decent ball is good enough for you then that's ok for yourself.

But at no time did I say izzys crosses are always terrible , As I forone think he has been getting back to his best for the past 6 weeks now . he has been one of our best players of recent.


12.) 02 Jan 2014 13:11:22
Agreed izzy crossing wasnt gr8 yesterday normally better.
As for Pukki a must be at wrong games a couple of nice touches, lay offs and runs doesn't cut it for a celtic forward. If he's not a goal scorer he should be coming out picking ball up and creating plenty in the SPFL. Bangura rarely started and didn't get as much game time but also showed some nice touches some nice runs and some good shots still isn't good enough.
After all is said a still go and support him everytime he plays and hope he's gony do more and prove me wrong


13.) 02 Jan 2014 15:10:21
i have said all along that for me the partnership would be balde and pukki. playing one striker up front in the spl is pretty embarassing and painful to watch also. pukki makes great runs off the ball but its our midfield who don't take the chance its the same story every game. plays it out wide to izzy he takes on his man and swings it in. this cuts out evry other player in the team apart from pukki/stokes

even atajic up top with anyone. he got on and scored and now hasn't seen a minute since. what is going on here?


14.) 02 Jan 2014 16:56:43
This pukki makes good runs is nonsense there are plenty that do some good things like samaras, Forrest am afraid pukki deserves the same criticism, he needs to do a hell of a lot better good runs doesn't cut it as a celtic forward


15.) @14 Was not going to get involved in debate but your comment's MB have me wondering, when was the last time you seen Forrest especially and Sammi being involved in a game for more than 10 minute's, my opinion of Pukki is I think he is trying to hard, remember Brattback he was the same
Tambhoy


16.) 02 Jan 2014 19:17:39
Tam bhoy a said pukki deserves the same criticism as they two, ma point is they both do the odd good thing in games like pukki but that doesn't cut it for me. Pukki needs to do more


17.) @16 He also need's the service mate, that not happening to much in game's just now
Tambhoy

first point is anyone found guilty of Damage at Fir Park should be Banned from attending any more football game's involving celtic.

But the response from the SMSM is a bit over the top.

Celtic are investagating the Issue but everyday there is a 3 page spread about this issue . And now Police Scotland have now come out and stated that they will now do everything in there power to find the people responsable and arrest them ( which I agree with ), But the week before Rangers fans tossed a flair onto the playing surface which damaged the pitch, and only a small article in the paper and nothing more.

Also the Last match against Rangers at celtic Park before they died the ripped up over 800 seats smashed the roof and sinks in the toilets all captured on a phone camera with police officers standing watching . plastered all over youtube but again a small bit in the paper and then forgot .

Aberdeen ripped up over 300 seats at Ibrox a few seasons ago . a small bit in the papers then everyone moves on .

i will once again say the people responsable should be punished but I do believe it is being played out in the SMSM as celtic have done somehting wrong but no mention that the motherwell fans in the opposite corner had flairs and smoke bombs in the stadium also .The picture of evil has been painted as celtic but what should be said is all clubs now have an element for clubs have not got fans who are trying to create an ultra mentality and all clubs should be looking to stamp this out.

1.) Can't disagree.jbhoy


2.) Great post. interesting that Police Scotland are investigating and will do everything in their power to track down the people responsible.would it not have been easier to arrest them at the time. or is that just too simple? If the police and stewards had done their jobs this might not have happened! How much do clubs pay for policing matches? Surely they should be able to claim back due to the complete lack of policing!

Why is Rodgers a Rat yet Tierney is OK.

If people are saying Tierney did what was best for his career then so did rodgers.

This has been the first offer for Tierney and he wanted to go. Rodgers might have moved in February but that's when the offer for him came in and he decided he wanted the new challenge. He might have taken his backroom staff with him but they came with him and he's comfortable with them, it happens with most managers.

And he has every right to go for players he feels will benifit his team we got sinclair that way.

Tierney left because he wanted to just like Rodgers we can put blinders on all we want but at the end of the day he left for the first club that offered him a way out.

I wish him well and I hope he does well.

Robdoc I'm not saying KT is trying to force a move what I'm saying if he decides to move for the good of his career then it is no difference than what Rodgers did. you kind of killed your own argument by saying there is no difference between them.
You say a football career is short and he has to do what he believes is best for himself, I have no arguments with that and I agree with you. But celtic fans still to this day say Rodgers is a rat for jumping ship and some of the same people say KT would not be as he's only looking after his short career.
Then I ask was Brendan not looki g after his career. He won everything that scotland has to offer, his stock was the highest it was ever going to get whilst managing I. Scotland. He went for a bigger challenge and people called him a rat for it.

And people can say it's how they left.
Big opportunities don't always come along too often so when they do they have to take them.

I've said all along I hope KT wants to stay but with everything that's been going on, not once has he said he has no interest in moving so my belief is his head is turned. But I'm not saying he will go.
It doesn't matter how he will leave or if its tomorrow or deadline day the fact will be he left to better his career and bank balance that's exactly what Rodgers did.

Why is it when Dembele forced his move people called him a rat, a mercenary and also Rodgers when now it KT and people are saying he wants to test himself against the best.

I doubt KT grew up dreaming about playing his career at Arsenal. He said he always wanted to be at celtic.

I've said it and I will again, I will wish KT all the best when he leaves but KT will be no different than Rodgers or doumbele when he does.

And I agree with weewhitey the captaincy or vice captaincy will not keep him but the chance of Legendary status possibly could.
KT will be remembered the same as VVD, wanyama or Dembele, he will be remembered as a very good player of this time but he is not a true celtic Legend.

No chance,
Brown is our captain and deserves to finish the job he started and win 10.

I would love KT to stay and vice captain I'm happy with.
The boys says he loves celtic and if celtic are wanting to keep him and not let him go then it is purely down to him.

The boy is a good player but nowhere near legendary stature with the club.
If he wants to be a legend and not just remembered as a very good player then he needs to put the time in.

If he leaves and we get good money then I will wish him well.

Also no mention of Alfred's stamp on jullians foot off the ball or his kick in brown off the ball.

Griff is to be Investigated for a gesture apparently made toward fans after the second goal I wonder if both Alfredo incidents will be investigated.

So boli only played good because Motherwell played bad or because our midfielder played good.

How do we expect the boy to improve if everyone is always looking to knock him down.
It took time for him to setting into the game and when he did he was fine.
The game in Austria is slower than in scotland and it will take him a bit of time to adjust.
He almost scored from A volley and set up our 3rd and started the play for our 4th. At least give him credit for when he does something good as his confidence will never improve if we don't give him the chance.

The only problem is who wants to come to celtic and be potentially 4th choice centre back.

Celtic will put out for a right back but I don't see us spending another 5 million on a CB and that's what it will take to get a potential first choice CB.

Yes Efe made mistakes but the pressure the fans put on him was shocking. You could feel they were willing him on to make a mistake nso they could shout at him.
He was in our sqade that beat Barcelona and the squad that held the clean sheet record.

I felt Efe was a decent defender and things fell apart when he came back after the African nations. The mistakes against juve really cost him after that every time he got the ball there was a tension and if he made a mistake everyone slaughtered him.

He did well at hibs. I believe he is decent cover at 4th CB but I would prefer us to look for stronger.

So what's happened to the days when all you ever dreamed about was playing for the club you love

He's the very man who said that's all he ever dreamed about, playing week in week out in a celtic shirt.

Never a mention of dreaming of playing anywhere else.
And I'm not saying dreams or aspirations never change but don't try sell yourself as Mr celtic and faithful through and through if he's the one wanting away.

Don't get me wrong I will thank him and wish him well for the future if he leaves but all this Mr celtic crab he's been peddling for the past 3 years really means nothing and I know I will get stick for this but its no different than what Brendan did. Always spoke celtic up and talked of his love for the club and supporters and he was one of us but the first chance to move to England And make more money he's wanting out.
