Possible striker for celtic, sebastian haller. 20 year old who is on loan from Auxerre to Utercht. Scored 7 goals in 9 games and scored a hat trick for France U21s. Utercht have option to buy, but surely celtic would be a far more attractive offer

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Was a bit stinking in France looked like an N'Gog. Found himself a bit of form though and if you can get a game and score a hat trick for France u21s then that's the kind of pedigree a young striker should have that we go for. There's a handful from the Eredevisie I'd be happy to see us sign.

Watching this just reminded me how much I hate international football, especially friendlies, absolute waste of leccy putting the floodlights on.

If teams like that from the North of Ireland play a game with 8/9 men behind the ball and have fans singing abuse at one of their own players, should it not be time to play friendly International matches behind closed doors .

Is it true that Paisley born ned and all round walloper Paul Paton, who attacked a Hoops player in the street, pulled out of the Norn Iron squad in case Scottish fans booed and jeered him for turning his back on his country of birth and choosing to play for a foreign country?

Lol.

Swings and roundabouts with Scotland though isn't it. Matt Ritchie hadn't been to Scotland before he met up with the squad this week!

25 Mar 2015 20:54:42
Any word on if that idiot Paton was charged for attacking big zaluska? Every time a see that wee clown on a football pitch he makes ma blood boil! Just looks like a wee ned who thinks he's a wee hard man! Looked really hard runnin about like a wee lassie tryin to get people sent off at tannadise a few weeks back! Guys a total bellend!

He's a ned that is all talk and no action. Blue to the core. That weird head of his needs a good rattling. No idea what happened to his assault charge. Or why the SFA haven't done anything about his claims that Celtic manipulate officials. But look at these:

Paton is to stand trial in October this year for assaulting Celtic's Lucasz Zaluska.

26 Mar 2015 18:24:25
The speed of the hands of Justice never cease to surprise me.
How the hell could he not be bought to trial before now . If the wee nyaff is innocent it isn't fair that he has the fear of this trial hanging over him for such a long time . If he is guilty he should have been dealt with appropiately before now .

Very bad injury for anyone, nevermind a goalkeeper. Hope he makes a full recovery and gets back to form.

Is that the same injury as Craig Gordon??

centre defence and striker

Yeah I would go with that to edinbhoy

I think we really need to strengthen our fans forums contributors, currently we are playing probably our best football for very many years and we keep on harping about strengthening . What about building on what we have from within.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 17:56:11
is that starting with the negativity from you Chris? to any other persons contributions to the forum

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 18:36:47
You can't even suggest anything might need improving with chris man. We're in some sort of Eutopia right now.

ST and a wide attacker. Probably going to end up needing two centre halves. Could do with some long awaited competition at LB too and perhaps a GK depending how much faith we have in Fasan. Quite a bit really but I think this window needs to be a big one to really kick this transition into motion. Not least RD deserves a bit of support and the boards ambition needs to meet our coaches.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 18:49:19
The way its looking we will need:
2x CB`s.
A top class striker.
An additional left back.
Another wide player.
and a good backup keeper.

That would give us as strong a team as we have had in years.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 18:56:58
Hopefully we get another season out of Denayer. I think winning the treble possibly could swing another season in our favour.

We could do with a CB to replace Van Dijk, a ST and a RB as I don't think we can rely on Lustig and Matthews for staying injury free.

The interesting question is who will be leaving in the summer? Can see easily £100k a week being shaved off salaries through a clearout

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 19:10:30
Messi, Ronaldo and Bale might solve our attacking problems . On the other hand they may not necessary play well together because of petty jealousies but we are Celtic and we deserve better . The problem with those three up front ordinary defenders like Kompany may feel they are not loved enough and may not want to come .
Forgive me, but I thought Deila's greatest strength was improving the performance of existing players and bringing youngsters into the team . Just when we get our current squad playing very well, our posters want to go into the transfer market and bring in players who may or may not blend in .
Call me names and insult me if that helps but remember the people who questioned Deila's ability, tactics, nonsense about fitness, are the same people who want to practically rebuild the team again.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 19:15:19
A top striker who wants to play for us is my number 1. I think in the sitting mid and the '3' we have 2 quality players for each position. Defence really depends on who stays and who goes and who can stay fit in regards the RBs. I wonder how many goals a hartson, sutton, larrson or even hooper would score with the midfield 5 that we could currently field. Our top scoring striker this season has scored how many? Not much is being made of it because our midfield all score so many that it has got them out of jail. Add a quality consistant striker and watch us soar even higher! Hh markie

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 19:31:29
I don't think anyone mentioned rebuilding the team Chris. I think all we are wanting is a couple of quality players to improve even further the team. We as a club have a history of standing still and not strenghening when in a good position. All we are saying is let's keep moving forward and I imagine RD would want to add a couple of players himself. It wasnt that long ago we were in the last 16 of the champions league and had a team that includ wanyamma, hooper, ledley, wilson. Did we add to that team and strenghen and move forward? No we did the opposite. that's why I hope the manager can add a couple of players he feels he needs to help with his progression.markie

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 19:33:26
Chris there isn't a forward thinking club in the world that won't look to improve, not only through the means you point out, but by bringing players in. We are far from a side that can't be improved. You don't even think we might need a CB perhaps? I'm not trying to insult you fella, you give me great entertainment.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 19:44:05
@Chris02 Are you seriously trying to say that you'd be happy going into the cl qualifiers with the squad we have minus van dijk, Denayer and Guidetti not to mention the other loans and who ever else is sold?

I've never questioned Deila, his tactics or his fitness regime, I've been the polar opposite in fact but to suggest that people wantoing to see the team strengthened are somehow having a pop at the manager is just bollox.

Nobody's talking about rebuilding the team, we will likely need to replace vvd and Denayer, are you saying we should replace those 2 with Efe and Mulgrew?

A team has 11 players, then there's the bench and the larger squad and you say people wanting to replace players leaving, making 2 3 or 4 signings is people want to rebuild the team?

We've been screaming out for someone to put pressure on Izzy for years now, we're probably losing our back up gk, we could possibly lose both our first choice CBs this summer, it looks like out top scorer for the season so far will also be leaving and I can't see Wakaso staying, Lustig has continual injury problems as does Matthews and Stokes long term future must be under threat, he is and always has been inconsistent and I don't think Deila likes inconsistency.

I'm sure others will have players to add to that list, yet you think we don't need to sign anyone!

So go on Chris02 and tell us your team for the first cl qualifier in July.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 20:44:07
ChrisO2:
I understand your lien of thought, to bleed in youngsters however no one can bleed in at least 3 quality players within 3 mth period ( CL) .
So given we need 2 CB`s and a top class striker at least where do you suggest we get them from???

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 20:52:56
Markie You talk about us not long ago having a team which included, Forster, Victor, Ledley, Hooper and those players all had one great thing in common, they all couldn't wait to get away from here, to show us up as not good enough for them to express their brilliance . The other thing they have in common is that none of them have progressed their careers since they left . They have either stood still in their careers or have gone backwards .
I am just a Celtic supporter, I appreciate some forum members on here support other teams ahead of Celtic and that is fine, but as a mere Celtic supporter I can only give my views on what I think is best for Celtic . We currently have a manager and back up whose best skills are developing existing players and bringing through youths .
I have no doubt last autumn when Mulgrew was struggling through injury to play in midfield, if a transfer window was open, there would have been a roar to buy a new midfielder . There wasn't a window, so Deila had to go to work on what he had and he has produced a very good midfielder out of an average Briton . The easy option is always to buy . However I think with the players we have, the back- up players and our youthful players it would be an aweful waste of the talent we have available plus Deila's skills we may well have far better to use what we have .

One more thing Ambrose was the laughing stock of some so called fans .
Ambrose was the target of abuse from loud mouths in the stands and I'll informed posters on forums. Yet under Deila and his back-up tuterage Ambrose has become one of our best defenders . Playing all four back four.positions .

25 Mar 2015 21:03:07
AMATEUR Horticulturist .
I am like yourself a mere amateur . You and your friends have been shouting out for years for a back- up for left back. The reason the professionals haven't done anything about that is more likely because they don't see it as a priority, rather than snub you and your friends . If the reserve goalkeeper leaves do you think we will have a major problem, I am sure there are many who can do as well as our existing reserve goalkeeper has done .
Wakaso leaving, that will create a big gap. How many minutes has he played this season .?
I think you and I are the same as your horticulture ability .
Why should we suggest we should be professional scouts .

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Mar 2015 22:39:58
@Chris02 Oh sorry I dozed off twice reading that garbage but thanks for answering Chris02, I had forgotten why I couldn't decide between you and Mrs E who was the most pointless poster on this site.

Now I've remembered.

I may be an amateur when it comes to horticulture but my knowledge of football has consistently put you in the shade, to the point that you need to avoid the direct challenge of a question.

Now give yourself a shake sunshine, wipe the slevers from your chin, man up, dust yourself down and tell us the team you would choose to play our cl qualifier in July seeing you don't think we need to sign anyone.

You'll be able to use google to find out who you can choose from.

Maybe we could replace Guidetti with Amido Balde that the professionals still at the club scouted and signed!

Come on Chris02, we're all rooting for you to finally make a worthwhile post, tell us your team Chris02, you can do it. We all believe in you!!

CHRIS!! CHRIS!! GO CHRIS! VIVA CHRIS!! (clap) (clap)

P.S. If you're not sure of players names you can use squad numbers.

P.P.S. Wakaso (he wears number 32 btw) is nearer the first team starting picture than guys you want to play in the cl qualifiers for us.

Priority two center backs, a top quality striker, up and coming back up lb and gk, new personality for chris02 and a skip button for his posts, over to you pl and ed007 .

I honestly don't know why anybody on here gives this chris02 the time of day honestly! I'm not even convinced this guy is a hoops fan! your the only guy on here that sees a problem in wantin to add sum quality to the team! And when anyone mentions the obvious like we need 2 new cb if vvd and denayer go, u try and twist into everybody's got agendas and why can't we get youngsters in! U honestly spout one load of garbage by the way! I've asked this before and it's not went up! But where exactly do u sit at parkhead mate? Because u watch a completely different game to every body else on here! And to top it off ambrose is our best defender now haha! There's no way your a celtic man by the way! your at it pal! Away on to another page and talk rubbish about the team u really support!

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 01:08:45
Jim Tim , maybe you could explain to me when did you do the survey of all the forward thinking clubs in the world . Could you list them all and the players they signed in each window over the last five years .
Jim Tim. I think you realise you were posting nonsense .
Our manager's reputation is in getting the best out of players .
Some years ago the Scottish centre half who became an English football pundit, once told everyone that you won't win anything with children /boys . That was Manchester United, if there were football forums then you can be sure that the UTD fans would have been going mad on lack of investment . Nobody can honesty say that Celtic won't need to buy players before next season, but the management team has to assess what he has available before trying to sign . Talking about who to sign now is putting the cart before the horse .
I honesty hope poor A H has recovered that last post showed signs that all is not well with him.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 04:55:42
Chris you're getting sidetracked again. Wandering down BS alley for the sake of being different. You've admitted then that we'll need to strengthen. Why not just say that in your initial response FFS rather than scrutinise decent posters on here. Because you like to argue and be different? And you do it so much you contradict yourself and make yourself out to be a clown all along the way? Then when somebody challenges you you completely dodge a question or go down some sidetrack to do with Chris Sutton or Manchester Utd? You're old enough to be better than this ;)

I did that survey last week. Was cress.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 08:04:50
Haha good old Chris02 at it again. The ultimate troll!

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 08:25:15
Like anything in life, its a natural process to build something then improve it over the years. A football team is no different. Your not going to knock signing any player who will drastically improve team because the current player for that position is playing well.

To suggest Ambrose is a good player is an absolute pi$$ take! He has been proven to be the weakest link for a long time and hope to see back of him this summer

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 09:31:10
Totally agree bud! Sooner he leaves the better! I can't take another season of this guy in a celtic top! And according to someone on here he's our best defender haha! And a see that someone still hasn't answered ma question about where he sits in paradise! He must have missed that one!

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 10:22:00
@Wiss67 surely its a bit of fishing to get bites saying Ambrose is a good defender lol. I think only reason celtic knocked back Ambrose bid from West Ham, was the situation we face at end of season regarding Van Dijk and Denayer. If the two of them had said they were staying, Ambrose would of been off.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 10:24:47
"Ambrose has become one of our best defenders" HA HA HA what a nugget! After making a statement like that it's obvious to all that you really don't have a clue about football.

You shouldn't slate other posters just because you're a dinosaur living in the past with no ambition.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 11:59:14
Dn30 hope your right mate! Can't go in to the CL qualifiers with this guy near the team! And a bit of fishing is always a laugh but the clown by the name chris02 has had one fishing trip to many on here for my liking! He needs to stop the fishing and actually watch the games! Lol

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 12:29:35
Wiss67 I think there will be less £ spent on transfer fees, more emphasise on signing bosmans and developing youth.

I think there will be a lot of comings and goings in summer. If any club comes in for Ambrose I would personally carry him all the way on ma back to new club lol

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Mar 2015 21:16:36
For those who laughed at what I wrote about Ambrose, I suggest you check out what Deila said about Ambrose this week.
Maybe I am wrong, but I thought we all were of the belief that Deila was a good manager and knows what he is up to .

Of course us, amateurs all know more than Deila.

DN30'. We may not be far apart when you post there will be many comings and goings in the summer transfer period, we need to wait until we know who is going before we know who is coming in . That is why speculation now is nonsense .

Celtic is not your beloved Barcelona ( first love? ), we cannot run up debts and get the state to pay them off.
Don't you be carrying Ambrose anywhere, you might hurt your back and that wèe girl that has stuck with you for 11 years may change her mind 🐔🐱🐹
