Enjoyed the first half but CG should have done a lot better at their goal.

I've been happy with Gordon for the most part this season but that was poor again. Anything more concrete on a new keeper in the summer other than a hunch Ed? I think you might well be right either way.
{Ed007's Note - It's obvious Rodgers never fancied Gordon or he wouldn't have panicked and brought De Vries in and Gordon hasn't (and won't) improve any great deal to change the manager's mind. I would be amazed if we aren't scouting 'keepers.}

Rodgers bringing in De Vries, doesn't engender any confidence in his ability to judge a goalkeeper.

Sorry Ed I was more meaning do you think we'll be looking for a new number 1? Or will he try De Vries again come the summer?
{Ed007's Note - I think he'll bring in a new No.1 and De Vries will be the No.2. I can't see Gordon staying if he loses his place in the team and he's too good to be a No.2. He's good enough to be a No.1, not just at Celtic.}

Nothing against gordon but I've just never rated him, even when he was at hearts. N despite some decent performances n great saves at times, as some have said he is a good shot stopper he just never fills me with confidence n we need a strong goalkeeper, that's part of the spine of any great team. Too many mistakes costing us dear n de Vries isn't the answer either but we need to get looking as there r good keepers out there.

Agree with all of that and tbh I'd be excited by the prospect of a new man between the sticks.
{Ed007's Note - For me it's the one obvious weakness in the team. That City 'keeper was honking btw, even I wouldn't have him over Gordon.}

The rumour was we were after Vorm in the summer but the GK injuries at Spurs meant they had to hold onto him until some of their keepers were back from injury.
If we are still after a GK then I would like to see Mouez Hassen (Nice) brought in as I think he has amazing potential.
{Ed007's Note - I'm sure Hassen is out of contract this summer, Rab. Maybe get big Moussa to sweet talk him for us.}

That makes him an even better transfer target and Stevie Woods has done a great job at coaching our keepers in recent years, so I could see him becomming the next Forster.
Pretty sure Fasan is out of contract in the summer, which would suggest we will have a GK spot available. Would like to see either de Vries or Baily moved on as well.
Would be happy with Gordon/ Hassen/ Baily or de Vries.
