    Hey, I am brand new to the forum but I thought I would share a video I found where a guy simulates where Celtic would finish if they were in the premier league.Really worth checking out but I would have thought we would finish slightly higher

    We'd be relegated, with this squad, if we had 300m to spend on players, we'd win it.

    yeah may be a bit of a click-bait, but in general thought the video was quite interesting we wouldn't get relegated top ten at least rogers knows what he's doing in the prem

    I think somewhere around 14th is fair.

    i suppose based on us the last 2 or 3 seasons, we probably would be around there, sinclair has been quality but he was part of a relagation side so the game is going to take account of that, and dembele was in the championship.

    personally think we would finish 8th, behind everton but just ahead of west brown southampton etc

    First season we would be mid table until we got the Premier League money that's floating about down there.
    After that we would start to rise up the division until we would be regular top 4 team.

    TBH i thought the video was pretty *.

    There's very little to choose from in between positions 8-12 usually. I would give us the benefit of the doubt and say our winning mentality cold see us challenge for a Europa League place with the current squad but a couple of bad results and that could easily be 12th.

    The last place I would want Celtic to be playing in is the EPL . Football is of little importance in the EPL and it is a primary source of income for multi rich foreigners , many of whom have made their original money in dubious circles .
    Interesting under Brexit Teresa May will be trying to remove the poor working class foreigners from her Kingdom but I don't expect her to try to move these tycoons who are bleeding football fans dry .
    We must do more in Scotland to make the game fair & equitable , remove the masons stranglehold , not turn our back on Scottish Football

    This Celtic team right now would finish top 10.

    Within 3 years we would be knocking on the top 4.

    Within 5 years we would be knocking on the title.

    I'd say with our current squad we'd finish about 15th but I really don't know. Not that I'd ever want us playing there though we'd become one of those soulless tourist clubs.

    I voted 8th - 12th, but only because i dont think the squad has enough depth of quality.

    Our bench is frightening just now. The other day against St Mirren our bench was, De Vries, Gamboa, Jozo, McGregor, Kouassi, Roberts, Griffiths.

    Most of them would have been starters last season.

    That doesn't even include Rogic, Commons, Toure, Izzy.

    Mid table is about right for this current Celtic team, upper mid imo but to say the squad is weak is wrong.

    I dont mean it is weak as such, but maybe too weak for that league is what i meant. Apart from Rogic Jozo and Roberts, i cant honestly see any of those you mentioned playing anything higher than the Championship.

    That said, im sure if we did go down now, we would invest quite quickly.
