    henrik

    he obviously went on to win the champions league for barcelona setting up their goals and got himself a deserved winners medal and 2 laliga titles but hed have played more with us and given us more great memories

    such a clever player could have played anywhere on the park as he got older maybe except goal keeper

    Rieper is a great shout, one of the best defensive debut seasons I've saw, pity it ended with injury.

    Ramon Vega is another.

    Craig Bellamy

    He'd have fed off Nakamura all day long. Could've been a club legend

    John Guidetti

    Scored for fun before he took the huff

    Virgil Van Dijk

    Was a steal when he went to Southampton


    Victor Wanyama

    Left too soon (maybe a January Reunion)

    Moussa Dembele

    Proper Hunskelper

    Fraser Forster

    Every day I wake up wishing he was still here.....oh wait......YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSD!!!!!!!!!

    Amazing seeing all these players at the one time. Probably still the most excited I've felt going to see Celtic every week. Apart from them Viduka

    Denayer, I wish we got him on a permanent deal because in my opinion he had all the potential to be just as good as Van dijk, I think when they were our centre back partnership it’s the strongest defence we’ve had in a long time.

    Aside from the obvious ones... there's a couple that I think if they had stayed longer could have achieved more.

    Landry N'Guemo and Mac Antione Fortune

    I thought wee N'Guemo was probably our best player in that fiasco of a season under Tony Mowbray. We didn't sign him....he was another loan deal I think. But he was a tough wee guy and always put a busy shift in and bossed the midfield a lot of the time. I think he'd have done well under Lennon in the next season cause in many ways he played like Neil Lennon used to play. I think if he'd have stayed longer into our more successful years he'd have went down as a really good player for us


    Big Fortune had flashes of brilliance but in other games he drifted about doing nothing. I remember him having a couple of good games against the huns and scoring an absolute peach against Motherwell at Fir Park. He was a player that probably suffered because he played in a poor Celtic team. Again I think if he'd have lasted a couple of years into the Neil Lennon years that he'd have done well. Especially since Lennon had back up strikers like Daryll Murphy in the squad. Fortune under better management would have been a good quality striker in the Scottish League for definite I think.

    The Ajax fans called him the glass man. We called him but couldn’t find the *. Could have been a contender. There was a player in there somewhere. Big * sorry Derk.

    Totally forgot that * even played for us. £3m that idiot cost us. Cant even blame Rodgers for that one. That was one of Lennon's. I seem to remember him having a half decent debut aswell before he went off injured and was never seen again. Where does our scouts find these *??
