    ye obviously don't watch celtic alot in the flesh m8 if you say scott brown doesn't retain possession.
    He certainly doesn't make lung bursting runs or score 20 goals a season his job is to retain the ball and break up play.

    Voted for Lustig. I think he is a fantastic player for us. Doesn't look out of place playing against the very best either. Very rarely has a bad game which is another massive plus point. The only mystery surrounding him, is his capability of completing 90mins. I can't work that one out, but I don't believe it is always a knock he has picked up during the game. He has really grown on me as a player I have to say.

    Brown for me workrate determination and leadership qualities that I want in a celtic player. Think over the years he has grown as a player.

    If Commons is our best player then we seriously need to Improve. He is a good player, but boy, is he overrated.

    The stats look in his favour but, he loses the ball way too much in my opinion. As I said, good player and I like him, but it's not a good thing if he's our best.

    Our most important players are Brown, Sammy and Commons; but I voted for Forster. He is far higher qulity for his position than anyone else is in theirs. With Vic gone, he is the only one of our players I could imagine in a Man Utd, Barca, AC Milan etc shirt. A very distant second would be Lustig. For all his undeniable importance to us, could you really see Commons in a Juve or Real Madrid shirt?

    Wanyama was the best imo. Right now the guys I would struggle to pick one absolute stand out player who is head and shoulders above the rest.

    Samaras, Ledley, Matthews are my top 3.

    Ledley would be even more effective if we take the shackles off him.

    Ledley by a country mile for his adaptability and consistency.

    Best of the rest would be Lustig, Commons and possibly Matthews.

    The "on their day" crew would be Sammy, Forster and Izzy (at least going forward).
