    Would rather get business done early bedding them in so they can get to know our way of playing etc but Rodgers is a messiah so in him we trust and I guess if the right deal can become available at anytime but if Rodgers is openly talking about another player I wonder who it is!

    Disappointing. Rodgers has repeatedly said, he wants to complete most of our business before the qualifiers.

    Its a worry that the board are not giving him the finances to sign quality, until we qualify. Last two windows have ended in us not bringing in targets.

    One of our best players of the season is no longer at the club, I don't understand how you're confused??

    We did fine without Paddy for months so it's silly to say we're weaker.

    But he's a fantastic player and was one of the best players last year, so we currently are really.

    We are indisputably weaker with the departure of Roberts.

    It doesn't mean we're going to crumble to pieces and finish third, but we are weaker.

    Yeh i would agree with that,he came on and changed games and had a huge impact ,if * forbid we cant make this happen ,then hayes will at least minimise the loss ,but ive not given up on him yet ,no news is good news,and once the squads ae selected for the season we will know more

    Curious who the other player Brendan thinks will be in before the qualifiers.

    Aye, I'd agree with this.

    Forrest proved himself last season but Roberts is a superior player. Any squad without him is 'weaker' if you like.

    Weaker on paper probably, and slightly weakened from the way we were playing towards the end of the season, but we are a far better team now than we were a year ago, or even as late as Christmas time IMO. With or without Roberts.

    Brendan Rodgers has said he only wants to add one more player to his Celtic squad before Champions League qualifying is over.

    Jonny Hayes has been the only new arrival since the transfer window opened and Rodgers is targeting another player to join the former Aberdeen winger soon.

    However, the manager will wait until the end of the window before making any more signings, saying that a better class of player is available as the deadline draws near.

    "Jonny was one and there is another I would hope we can get in," Rodgers told Celtic TV.

    "Then I just want to get through the qualifiers with the players who have got us through, knowing they are a year better on.

    "I also want to just wait and see because I know the market in England and the rest of Europe well.

    "I know how it works. It's later on in the window before players of real quality become available. I want to bring the best possible players into here."

    As long as the player he is looking at bringing in before the qualifiers is a first team player then great.

    We are stronger than we were before we played the famous Lincoln red imps, that means we are better prepared than last year.

    No disputing that, still weaker without him though. His ability, especially to change games in a second is no longer there. Players like that can be crucial in qualifiers like the ones we are set to face.

    His assist away against Astana, performance to get us going against Red Imps etc as a good example.
