Good news that CCV trained today ?.
16 May 2025 14:54:07
It's been confirmed Hatate will miss our last couple of games due to injury.
Hatate went into this season rightly labelled an injury prone player in recent seasons but yet he's done brilliant to be involved in all 55 Celtic games this season thus far.
The same happened last season with Kyogo.
He started last season with a shoulder injury and yet he played in all 50 Celtic games last season.

We seem to be very lucky with injuries under BR these last two seasons . Maybe CCV has been a little unlucky, but mostly we have had a good run .
I think this is due to fitness and conditioning coaches are not working squad as hard as at training as previous years.
They also seem to use the information that comes from the “players sports bras” and those who have pushed themselves towards the limits are replaced from 60 mins until 85 th min, to event over work and injuries . However injuries likeJota and Hatate are something we can’t avoid and we hope we won’t have any more this year.

Who knows wee des but if we’re going to blame the club when we have too many injuries then I suppose they’re due some praise when our record is good, especially when most the injuries we have had have happened during games rather than training.

I think our corners this season have been better than previous seasons but there's still not a big enough threat.
I done quick calculations of the goals coming from our recent Centre Backs.
Nawrocki hasn't scored and I don't think Nat Philips or Kobayashi scored either.
Ajer, Trusty, CCV, Starfelt have only scored between 3% to 4.5% between them which is poor.
Welsh is about 6% and Scales 7% of games.
Duffy was a big threat but he was only on loan.
Lagerbielke has 10% but has scored one goal in only 10 games for Celtic.
I actually thought we might need to go back to Boyata to find a Celtic CB with a decent record but then I noticed Jullien had a 16% scoring record for Celtic.
It's those types of scoring figures Celtic have been lacking in these last 5 seasons.
Celtic also need a free kick specialist because we haven't scored direct from a free kick in the league for over 4 years and that's shocking.
I remember Turnbull scoring an in-direct free kick against St. Johnstone to make it 4-1 in injury time a few seasons ago.
Also Jota against Real Madrid in the CL.
I can't remember any more since Turnbull scored in lockdown against Hibs direct from a free kick, when we had about 15 players banned.
Celtic score loads of goals from open play but we definitely lack goals from set pieces.
It's a long overdue area we need to improve on next season.
1.) 09 Apr 2025 08:37:09
When was the last time we scored direct from a freekick.
2.) 10 Apr 2025 19:59:31
4 yrs ago, Mallythetally2 . In fairness certain teams should practice taking free kicks outside the area, as the slightest touch and a dive wins a free kick in an optimum position .
We don’t do too badly at corners as we lack the height of most teams . Usually we have only 2 big strong players and if they attempt to use their weight, ref will penalise him . If Idah happens to play then we have 3 men with a bit of height giving penalty taker some options . We have to be smart with our corners them up them mix up near post, back post and short corners.
25 Mar 2025 14:02:43
Nothing has been confirmed yet but it's looking like Kasper has received the worst injury in his 20 year career.
Schmeichel missed the last 6 weeks of the 2018 season with an ankle injury.
That's been his longest absence according to Flashscore, since he first started playing in the 2005/ 06 season.
{Ed007's Note - I seen he might be out until September at least.}
1.) 25 Mar 2025 15:04:44
ED007 and Buzz looks like the young Czech goalkeeper will be getting plenty of game time, despite Brendan not giving him game time in cup games.
Also I heard Maeda had a bruised leg but still wanted to play for Japan today
We could have a few walking wounded returning to Celtic Park this week.
2.) 25 Mar 2025 18:19:23
The Bayer Leverkusen keeper is keeping Sinisalo out of the Finland team.
He stayed on the bench in their 2 games over the last week.
Sinisalo has been unlucky to be 2nd choice to a couple of great Goalkeepers and he will finally get his chance.
Sinisalo has only played against Raith Rovers this season due to Celtic being drawn against Premiership clubs in the cup competitions.
3.) 26 Mar 2025 19:33:40
I am sure BR target a domestic treble at the start of the season. With our super domestic success for the last 10 yrs or so, anything less than a treble is almost regarded as some Celtic fans as a failure . So BR hadn’t much option but to play his first choice ‘keeper with the lead we have in SPL Sinisalo our reserve
goalkeeper will be under less pressure playing SPL games . He played a full season for Exeter, so he has decent experience.
I would be worried with Schmeichel if he is out for about 6 mths at his age his career at the top could be over.
I wouldn’t really worry about Maeda as he often limps off when playing for Celtic and returns 3/ 4 days later and run his opponents into the ground .
H. ns players lined up the other Sunday to kick, elbow and hit him with anything they could and although he was limping he still gave them a run around.
20 Mar 2025 15:16:51
An article has mentioned that Celtic will cash in on CCV and Khun this summer.
Both players are contracted until 2029 with CCV signing a 5.5 year extension only 14 months ago.
It also mentioned that Khun wanted to leave in the January transfer window and he will get his wish at the end of this season.
I'm not sure if the article is accurate because it also mentioned a possible Kris Ajer return.
Ajer signed a contract extension with Brentford which has 4 years left.
Ajer would be out of our price range and it makes me doubt the article.
1.) 20 Mar 2025 16:56:17
Would u want ajer back, good with ball no the best at defending.
2.) 20 Mar 2025 18:09:08
Maybe the holding mid we are needing?
3.) 20 Mar 2025 21:57:44
Was he not one of the ones who downed tools in the failed 10Iar?
4.) 21 Mar 2025 15:44:20
Ajwr still can't defend, he has to grab onto a opposition players arms, when defending free kicks or corners, but that is allowed in English Football for some reason, you don't see penalty kicks being awarded for all the pushing and holding that goes on.
5.) 21 Mar 2025 22:10:55
Id take ajer back in a heartbeat but for a DM role. That was his natural position before he joined us.
I can't see the move happening as we would need to smash our record.
6.) 21 Mar 2025 23:07:59
Correct 9iar.
☘️ ? ☘️.
7.) 25 Mar 2025 13:30:19
Never though Ajer was ever a centre back although he did have a few good games at right back. I always wanted to see him in midfield because he is very comfortable on the ball, is mobile and strong.

That was a big shock because I couldn't see a defeat for Celtic.
I wasn't nervous at all considering it was a massive match.
I definitely took Aberdeen lightly but I'm only a supporter.
The Celtic players were 100% complacent and they got what they deserved.
Well Done to Aberdeen because it was a 35 year long overdue Scottish Cup Success.
24 May 2025 18:13:10
Terrible performance from the Celtic players.
Aberdeen deserved their victory.
We couldn't keep depending on penalty shootouts to gain further success.
It's not the end of the world and we move on to more success next season ?.
1.) 24 May 2025 18:39:08
Think it sums up plenty of the second half of our season. Complacent and pedestrian, Rodgers doesn't have a plan B when it's not going our way.
Anyway, I'm trying not to dwell on it! Like you say buzz, move on and build for success again.
2.) 24 May 2025 18:58:52
One of our poorest performances of the season saved. It's a humbling reminding us we need improvements. Feeling teams have now sussed us out a little with the back 3/ 5. Hopefully food for thought for the coming season. HH.
3.) 24 May 2025 19:03:08
Hard to take. but take it we must. onto next season and hopefully have a quality not quantity transfer window . when does it start ed?
4.) 24 May 2025 19:06:10
One week it’s scintillating one-touch direct football, the next week it’s side to side backwards nonsense. I prefer the one touch stuff.
23 May 2025 14:37:17
I watched a re-run of the 1990 Scottish Cup Final penalty shootout defeat against Aberdeen.
Aberdeen took 10 penalties and Pat Bonner went the wrong way 8 times.
Bonner still never saved the 2 penalties he guessed correctly.
Aberdeen did miss one penalty which went over the bar.
Bonner also gifted the 1984 Scottish Cup Final to Aberdeen, when he got caught in no man's land for the Aberdeen Extra Time winner.
It was harsh on Celtic who played the vast majority of the match with only 10 men.
I always felt Celtic had average keepers in the late 70s, the 1980s and the 1990s.
The first good keeper I can remember was Boruc and we've been fortunate enough to have had decent keepers since.
( lockdown being the exception )
1.) 23 May 2025 14:46:42
Same Buzz, I always thought we struggled to have good goalkeepers and good left backs. We seemed to always find top strikers though.
2.) 23 May 2025 16:39:01
Celtic never really spent decent transfer money on defenders until we paid £5M for the Brazilian dud.
The Celtic Way was attack and a decent chunk of our budget usually went on good strikers.
Rangers were the opposite and they would always build from the back.
From the mid 1980s they always had a good goalkeeper and they would normally break their transfer records on Centre Backs.
Kutnetsov and Gough Etc.
3.) 23 May 2025 17:13:47
I will never forget that game because I was in a room full of 'currents' bar two of us - who couldn't get out quick enough after Anton Rogan blazed over. Times like that make me appreciate recent times and achievements even more.
4.) 23 May 2025 17:17:11
I remember the 1990 cup final was a horrible game. I thought Peter Latchford in the 70s was good for us. Interested to hear what older Bhoys thought of him.
5.) 23 May 2025 17:51:09
Was disappointed in Rab Douglas especially in Seville, agree Boruc onwards got better well some did, Forster, Hart, Schmeical n hopefully Sinso ?.
6.) 23 May 2025 20:01:09
I would also add Craig Gordon to your selections Troy.
7.) 23 May 2025 22:25:49
Knew ad forget sum1 ?.
8.) 24 May 2025 01:01:17
Ian Andrews still gives me the fear!
21 May 2025 14:33:07
On this date in 1979,
Celtic 10 men won the league after a 4-2 comeback victory against Rangers.
It was a horrendous winter and it was the month of March before Celtic played our first league match of 1979.
Celtic went into that match in 8th place which was 3rd bottom but we had 4 games in hand.
Celtic then played 18 league games, which was half a season in only 79 days to secure a memorable comeback title victory.
21 May 2025 07:40:55
Hibs will be wanting Celtic to complete the Treble on Saturday.
They will be guaranteed European Group football next season if Celtic win the Scottish Cup.
Hibs would enter at the Europa League playoff stage and a defeat would still give them Conference League football next season.
1.) 21 May 2025 07:46:25
Dundee Utd would also benefit if Celtic win on Saturday.
They currently enter the Conference League at the 2nd round stage but that would change to the Europa League at the 2nd round stage.
2.) 21 May 2025 08:54:52
Buzz we Celtic fans will be wanting Rijeka to pip Copenhagen to Danish title then we are seeded in CL qualifiers.
3.) 21 May 2025 09:33:15
Timalloy. I might be missing something in translation . rijeka are Croatian . do they need to win their league and Copenhagen lose theires? Or is there a punchline here I'm missing?
4.) 21 May 2025 10:05:41
Tim,
They are in different leagues.
Croatia and Denmark.
5.) 21 May 2025 10:45:04
We need Dinamo Zagreb OR Copenhagen to lose the league.
Tim is right about Rijeka securing the title if they win on Sunday and then Celtic will be seeded in the CL playoffs.
6.) 21 May 2025 10:59:52
I can't understand why provincial clubs get in a lather about qualifying for Europe. Chances are they'll be out by the end of July so what's the fuss all about?
7.) 21 May 2025 11:05:18
Guys as you can see I FAILED Geography lol
Anyway as usual follow Buzz HE knows.
8.) 21 May 2025 12:40:18
9iar, we've hardly covered ourselves in glory in europe over the last decade or 2. If the provincial clubs get some exposure and much needed cash by playing in Europe then its good for all of us.
9.) 21 May 2025 14:44:39
Fair dos Henrik. I can't argue that.
24 May 2025 13:58:48
No changes and No excuses.
A good lineup and a strong bench.
I can’t see past a comfortable Celtic victory unless we lose our discipline.
Celtic have been the best disciplined team in the Premiership this season and hopefully we can show our experience on our way to another Treble ?.
14 May 2025 18:56:16
It will be an interesting game with 8 changes made.
Last season Celtic won our last away match of the season for the first time in 6 years, which shows we tend to play fringe players before trophy day.
I hope Forrest can get his goal.
01 May 2025 14:38:45
“Once” or takeover discussions could still fall apart.
01 May 2025 14:03:16
I reckon Celtic will change kit suppliers before we give up showjumping.
01 May 2025 11:08:55
That’s mean Adidas are staying for 14 in a row ?.
{Ed007's Note - What do you think will happen first, we don't win the league or we change kit suppliers?
23 May 2025 20:01:09
I would also add Craig Gordon to your selections Troy.

22 May 2025 19:39:19
McGowan is a good impact player off the bench with his high energy and direct play.
He seems to get more joy when he’s fresh and his opponents get tired.
I’m expecting the same lineup as last week.
Ladbrokes are currently giving a boosted 7/ 2 for Celtic to get at least 3 goals and to also get at least 7 corners in the bet builder.
That’s brilliant Odds, which will fall the closer we get to kickoff time.
22 May 2025 14:57:53
Enjoy Croatia, lovely people.
21 May 2025 17:45:40
I don’t think Brendan will make any changes from last weekend.
