no one can doubt big lustigs love of celtic and the service he has gave us but his times up at celtic. how musonda didn't start is a mystery. i genuinely thought that zenit team were there for the taking even at 2 -0 but alas we watched the same old movie. i still think its grossly unfair to criticise our achievements over the last season and a half but its clear some boys need moved on kouassi being one.

id take 30 bob for jozo and the 40 million for the mouse seems a lifetime away. win the next two league games and the leagues in the bag young Bain needs a game DDV was embarrassing tonight. the subject of investment will raise its head again but in a nutshell we won't and can't spend to compete with the likes of Zenit who in my opinion are no great shakes. We shall not be moved.

I agree with everything except the kouassi part last week was his best game for us last night he wasn't up to it.

Sad to have to admit it about Lustig. Ideally he could stay around and finish his career here, playing on a more occasional basis, why some young prodigy learns the ropes.

It isn't all about how much we spend. Astana drew 3-3 away to Sporting and imo Sporting are better than Zenit and we are better than Astana. We should be capable of better than that performance. There needs to be more quality added to the team and not these cheap budget signings. The team needs quality experience added too. I think over the campaign we have seen who our core players are. Ajer, Tierney, Brown, Ntcham, Forrest. Time to build a team around these guys. Still got the likes of Sinky, Griffiths, Compper, Clamac, Musonda Be interesting to see if BR is backed by the board now as I'm sure he'll want to overhaul the squad in the summer and get shot of the ones he doesn't think is up to standard. But knowing the board it'll be the usual biscuit tin approach until our European fate is decided. They'll be question marks over Gordon, De Vries, Jozo, Boyata, Lustig, Gamboa, Armstrong, Rigid, Dembele, Edouard, Roberts at the end of the season.

Lustig needs rested and Ralston developed giving us the best of both a rejuvenated lustig and game experience for his natural replacement with both fighting for/ backing up the right back position. is musonda mature/ good enough to run the midfield. kouassi and ntcham cost a combined 7 mill aprox . both are ok. But 1 quality player instead of two ok with potential would've been better? . bain who went to loan at hibs and never played. harsh until we see him in goals for us l know . but we've known we needed a new keeper since before br arrived and still not been addressed.

I'd like is to buy Bain as our number 2 and get shot of both Gordon and De Vries and get another keeper too and try loan out Hazard. I hope there has been a lot of cash out by for a spending spree as the squad clearly needs investing in. If all of the mentioned above was sold on that would generate around 30 odd million. Add VVD cash and CL cash and there plenty there to overhaul the squad. There's a few that don't want to be here, a few not good enough to be here and a few that are injured far too often. With that cash surely we can afford a new GK, CB, RB, CM and ST. If the board aren't willing to back BR then why should he stay?
