New Bhoy has more talent than McGeady.

Patrick McCourts former Boss claims he can be better than Aiden McGeady.

New Celtic signing Patrick McCourt has already been tipped to dazzle the Celtic supporter, even more than their current hero, Aiden McGeady.

Former boss Roddy Collins had this to say,""Paddy is a sensational player, an outstanding talent. He is a more natural footballer than McGeady and I'm serious about that."

For a modest fee of £100,000 plus an extra £50,000 dependng on the amount of first team appearances, not many Celtic fans would have thought the unkown Irish man could possibly live up to the wonders of McGeady.

McCourt,24, is naturally a winger but former boss Collins thinks he may be better playing just behind the Celtic front two,"Managers have played him as a winger but he's better behind the front where he can kill teams on his own."

These are big claims for the young boyhood Celtic fan to live up to, but if he can fill his potential he is sure to become a fans favourite fairly quickly

No pressure there then eh!?

I wouldnt put too much expectations on the guy, could be a gem but he has his work cut out for him to compete with wee Aiden.

Wish him all the best tho
