Big Ange has said we are not signing a goalkeeper yet he wants to strengthen other areas first.
30 Jul 2021 15:31:26
That’s terrible news, I’d rather we stuck with ralston and got a decent keeper in. No point having a decent right back and keepers that let in every shot .
30 Jul 2021 15:43:16
Probably due to not knowing our European destination yet.
I knew the defeat on Wednesday would set us back a few weeks in the transfer market.
{Ed007's Note - Where did Ange say we are not signing a 'keeper? "If I think we can improve in that position then it's an area we'll look at but there are a number of priorities. We still need 2 or 3 significant additions to the team."
Celtic spoke to Tottenham this morning and have either spoken to his agent again already or will at some point today/tomorrow.}

I like the “significant additions to the teamâ€
That should mean players that are better than we’ve already got and will start.
Hopefully our new signings are worth the wait.

I think he will get really sick and tired of the same old questions and 'digs' pretty sharpish and his patience will be tested to the point of generalization and bog standard statements to the Sevconian media.

He never said that just watched it, but a bit like last year we are always working away, that was lennons war cry and very little happens.

Molly we've signed 3 first team ready players and a couple of squad players who can make an impact this season. I think its a bit early to be giving it that he's the same as Lennon.
Ange has called out the board twice already in his short time here, he's no Lennon. He's getting his own players in but the world is complicated with C.V. and brexit. Time will show he's done a good job so far.

Although Joe Hart comes with very good pedigree and experience, in recent years he's developed a reputation for being error prone. Maybe we're hoping Stevie Woods can get the best out of him again and see him as a safe option after what's happened with Barkas. Personally I see it as a quick win to allow us to focus efforts on other positions.
30 Jul 2021 18:14:00
'Number of priorities' is right but I'd say it's far more than 2 or 3 outfield players plus a GK.
30 Jul 2021 18:27:04
He's no lennon agreed but how many times did lennon say we're working away and very little happens, that's the similarity and let's hope we do get them in, iam 100% behind ange.
30 Jul 2021 18:43:28
Do we actually think Ange is going to tell the MSSM what players and positions we are going to get - I thinks it’s already clear - Ange will not suffer fools with them or anyone else.
30 Jul 2021 19:10:32
Let's have a good look at the 'first 15' when this transfer window closes.
If its not night and day from the end of last season - call the Samaritans. 😨.
30 Jul 2021 19:19:43
He's not going to out his goalies as dunk when he needs them tomorrow night. He won't ever through his players under a bus.
30 Jul 2021 21:23:19
That's what I meant Ed he was prioritising other areas first that was my take on it.
{Ed007's Note - You said that Ange had said we aren't signing a 'keeper, he never said that. How do you know that "but there are a number of priorities. We still need 2 or 3 significant additions to the team." doesn't mean a GK?}
31 Jul 2021 06:40:36
The whole back 5 need replacing. that's why we got knocked out off the champions league. sorry for being brutally honest here. I can see Hearts putting real pressure on us tonight. I hope to be really proven wrong. H. H.

Hit the nail on the head there Auf. It would be wrong to name any specific position but Goalkeeper especially being an isolated position in the side.
31 Jul 2021 11:14:37
I think I said we are signing a keeper yet he had othe priorities first.
31 Jul 2021 15:23:13
"Big Ange has said we are not signing a goalkeeper yet he wants to strengthen other areas first" that's your words Marco. Your putting 2 and 2 together and getting 84.
31 Jul 2021 15:41:52
We need an experienced GK even if it's for a year to help us on our rebuild. We should sign Dwight Gayle of Newcastle he'd score 25 + up here and he won't play at Newcastle. Another Newcastle player I like is LB Paul dummit.
