    Was hoping when I clicked on the thread that Reo Griffiths was a 26 year old, European scouted, 6ft 3in passing centre half with a mean streak, 30 cap international, with over 250 professional games under his belt.
    But nah, it's an 18 year old centre forward prospect from England. Hurrah, exactly what we need.

    I’d be very surprised if we get him, Moussa levels of surprised.

    Heavily linked with Lyon.

    Just because we need other players doesn’t mean we should pass up opportunities with players like this, from what I’ve seen of this boy he’s going to be a * star.

    Which is why I don’t think we’ll actually get him but I said the exact same about Moussa.

    In fairness we couldn't pass up an opportunity to sign someone like this if it came up.

    He has huge potential. Would pretty much be ready to play immediately.

    Obviously something we can guarantee tjough and doubt we are even interested.:56:

    ‘Lionel Messi admits he wants to play for Celtic’

    Millenials on Celtic Facebook and Twitter - ‘can he play centre half’.

    Both fair points and would tend to agree. Not sure he's a starter with Edouard, Dembele and Griff tho.
    Anyhow, I think I'm just starting to move from the 'relax, we'll sign player just be patient' camp to the 'for * sake Celtic get the finger out' camp. Frustration showing.

    Don’t need him. Wouldn’t challenge any of our top 3 strikers.

    Griff and Dembele have shown they are quite injury prone and we look like we were going to play two up top. Another striker wouldn’t go amiss, especially such a young promising one.

    Realistically Dembele will be gone next summer too you'd imagine.

    This boy looks much in the same vein.

    Can he play centre half though?

    Also if it’s a free then why not see how he gets on with the development squad

    Would be similar to Moussa's situation at Fulham where we'd only have to pay a small development fee to spurs?

    Along with resting them after Europe we need more attackers. People keep moaning about getting defenders in. We need wingers and attackers. Our goal return last season was woeful.

    "Roberts was injured, so was Armstrong etc" aye well they're gone aswel. * a CB. Get me another Roberts and Armstrong.

    So was Rogic, Moussa, Griffiths with Edouard just settling in. We done remarkably well with our injury problems last year.

    We could offer him a fair amount of game time if Dembélé moves on.

    We couldn't actually offer him that though.

    Unless he was willing to wait a year. Then again he could get a fair few if we persist with 2 up top.

    I've heard Reo is a bit of a speedwagon
