Has there been any update on wee Shaun joining as a coach and with him being offered the job does that mean that big Kolo won't be joining?

Do the ex players get paid for this or is it just an honorary post.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Aug 2017 13:21:17
Think they get paid as they do work on match days with the hospitality do they Not?

Ed any idea what Mousas teasing tweet is about. He is pictured signing something with the phrase because they wanted me I'm assuming it's a sponsorship thing rather than signing but others speculating transfer or new contract with us.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - Do people honestly think Dembele would announce he was leaving Celtic by Tweeting a picture of him signing a contract with his new club or even that Celtic wouldn't announce something beforehand?
It's obviously something to do with his personal sponsorship and more than likely a boot deal with Adidas.}

think he plays to the press for a wind up mate.

the boy ralston impresses me every time i see him, he looks like he's ready for the first team this could mean lustig could move to centre half with two centre halfs injured.

Believable16 Unbelievable1

Really don't think lustig is needed in there.
I think it is a good thing for managing lustigs fitness and giving him rest.

If we can keep them, in two years we'll have the best set of young full backs in Britain.

Agree2 Disagree0

Big lustig has done wonders but looks as though he needs hip replacements, as soon as he's up against pace they always find a way down that line. Definetly need someone with pace for the upcoming games and ralston more than fits the bill 🍀.

Paddy Roberts: Hoping the deal will be done by Saturday/ Sunday.

Paddy wants to come back, the club are willing to meet city's valuation of £7.8m + add on's. city prefer a loan deal. a lot of work to be done but club are confident. Paddy is happy to sign a 4 year deal, man city would have buy back clause.

Believable1 Unbelievable3

Rumours online that the loan fee could be as high as £2.75M for the season. This is from a usually reliable source orher is pretty consistent with his info and posts. Would need to open up Celtic Park like they did with Rodgers if it was a permanent deal!

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 15:03:24
Every report I've seen would suggest that city don't want another loan deal and are looking to sell, either way I still want him bk in the hoops.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - City would prefer a permanent deal. Some clubs, and Roberts himself, would prefer a loan deal.}

09 Aug 2017 15:21:15
Out of interest, if known, why would Paddy prefer a loan deal?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - He wants to get a chance to fight for his place at City in the future and he believes he has what it takes to play for them.}

09 Aug 2017 15:31:27
Personally, I would think that he is waiting until City have a manager that appreciates him in the slim hope that Guardiola will move on and he might get a sniff?
However, with the way Man City spend money, chasing success, have a long wait and Celtic are here and now.

I don't think there's any chance whatsoever of wee paddy playing in Man City team ED! And that's not because of the boys ability, it's because they throw silly money at that team every year and youngsters like him don't stand a chance! And it wouldn't matter if guardiola left either because the next big foreign coach they get will be the same! I just hope we're not putting all our eggs in one basket waiting for the wee man and we end up with nobody! I hope a decision is made one way or another very soon, if it's no we move and bring another winger/ striker in and if it's yes then happy days! Just hope there's a back up plan that's all.

I think his attitude is quite refreshing. He signed for City and doesn't want to leave feeling like he's failed. Although I think a happy medium could be a permanent move with a buy-back clause for City (if they want it) .

Agree0 Disagree0

Maybe Roberts can be the player to show Guardiola that the English youth system can provide top top class players.
