So can only think last nights so called summit was decision time,
We need at least a striker for Sunday, go get manwanisie and get deal done today, if we can get another on Friday then do it,
Does engles fit the idah situation of recoup money and re-invest (obv we never with idah money ) or do we risk losing a player we would like to see under a new manager,
I thought he did ok last year, this year was out team under br, but in mon first spell looked Decent, if he had more goals he’d fit bill but I’m still unsure
Anyway
Striker today/ tomo
After that I want a ch, rw, another striker and any player leaving replaced,
I think waiting to last few hours of window for possible epl loans in any position for a squad boost will also suffice ( Harvey elliot comes to mind )

If you’re unsure on Engels then I’d love to know what you think of the rest.
Engels is the best midfielder we have and has had to put up with a poor captain beside him and a player in Hatate that plays 1 good game in 10 if he’s lucky.
Bernardo - not sure what’s happened to him.
McCowan has looked lost recently
Nygren - good numbers and needs athletes around him.

I think Engels has done well since he arrived at CP. He obviously has talent and with better players around him, in a more settled environment, he could be very good.
CalMac and Hatate ate on the way out, for different reasons, which hasn't helped Engels.

Unsure wether we keep as an 11m investment or recoup an reinvest the same 11m, by unsure I mean unsure if we can get better for 11m, I think he had a decent year last year, our them all who’s been good this season?

The money would be used to cover the compensation given to Nancy, Tisdale etc.

I think selling him this window would be a massive gamble. As we've seen the board takes forever to do business and won't even have anyone in mind as the scouting team seem to do **** all all season until the window opens.
If we was to sell any of the midfield to reinvest I'd sell Hatate as he's an empty jersey and offers little in terms of G/ a for a 10 role at Celtic.

Plus you can rest assured that whatever money we take in from sales will NOT be reinvested in the squad. Day 20 of the window and absolutely heehaw happening with incomings.
We're seriously going to go to Tyncastle on Sunday with Kenny as our number 1 striker? It genuinely feels like the board, and Desmond in particular, are trying to make a point that we don't know how good we've had it so they're going to show us what it's like to not win anything!

Jaa - I feel for the guy. He has all the attributes to be a great player and our club have held his progression back.
If he leaves then fair play if it’s Leipzig - at least he will have good players around him.

Bishop if hatate only has 1 good game from 10 it’s still 1 more than engles.

I love this site if there is one thing we have in common it is we all have thoughts on players that are not good enough for Celtic.
The whole team has been covered.
