If we sign Paddy Roberts (fingers crossed) This will send out a message that Celtic are new in a position to deliver quality over quantity something we have all wanted for a while. With the addition of Paddy on a permanent deal and if Moussa stays going into the Cl qualifiers with a belief rather than the hopefulness of last season will be fantastic. No 2nd or 3rd rate Jonny foreigner for us its the real deal that we are signing now.

From Newsnow
CELTIC'S number one signing target Patrick Roberts this evening updated his twitter handle, changing the number 27 to 7, the iconic Celtic squad number that awaits him should his permanent transfer to Celtic proceed.
Brendan Rodgers, the Celtic manager has made it clear to the board that they must do all they can to re-unite Roberts with his Invincible team-mates at Parkhead. Celtic are in advanced stages of negotiations with his parent club Manchester City prepared to sell the player to the Scottish Champions.
The Celts are also in line for a £7million windfall from the transfer of Virgil van Dijk from Southampton. The probable destination for the Dutchman is Anfield but Southampton may attempt to bring Manchester City and Chelsea into a bidding war.
That's all good news for Celtic Chief Executive Peter Lawwell who inserted a 15 percent sell on clause when the 25 year old Dutch international left Celtic for Southampton in August 2015.The £7millon windfall will be more than enough to satisfy Manchester City regarding the move for Roberts so the remaining barrier to the deal - would the 20 year old Englishman be prepared to move to Glasgow on a permanent basis - looks a little more likely this evening, thanks to patrick27roberts changing to patrick7roberts by Patrick himself!

Has he not changed it to 7 this evening Ed or is it a fake account. I don't use Twitter so none the wiser.

Thinking about midfielders now. Imagine this for a battle. Roberts, Lambert, McStay, Armstrong, Moravcik, up against Brown, Wanyama, Petrov, Rogic, Nakamura.
