    An article from a few years ago for those who say Lustig isn't a CB...

    Lustig also sees his long-term future as a centre-back – a role he’s already filled for the Hoops in the SPL and Champions League.

    “Now, right-back is my position, but it’s one of the most tiring. I’m a bit older now and notice in the days I play at centre half I’m not as stiff as I am when I’m at full-back.

    “So I don’t think it’s where I’ll be playing when I’m 35.

    “The good thing is when I return to right-back, I know how the guys in the middle want me to play, having done it myself.”

    “Adam can play at right or left-back, even on the wing. I play at centre-half too so I hope there are some games where we're playing together.

    Lustig won't be playing for Celtic when he's 35.

    I agree with what Zander said on the previous page.

    However, as I've said before if he comes in I have no doubts he will put his baws on the line for the cause. Which, will be refreshing to have tbh.

    Hopefully Ambrose and someone else are for the chop if this happens

    He was exaggerating I'd suggest, probably meant 30.

    Think it's fairly obvious he didn't mean it literally, in terms of playing for Celtic at least.

    Anyways back to Duffy and not an unrelated player... Lots of talk with Brendan revealing we have talks underway with 2 players that Toure and Duffy could be coming in this week. Lets hope it's true! A back 3 of Erik, Toure and Duffy would boss Scotland.

    Could PTT play in a winning side against Barca as well? :icon_mrgreen:
    Just posting what Lustig has said in the past, that's all.

    Sviatchenko, Toure, Duffy and Simunovic.

    Ambrose and Boyata out.

    If Mulgrew wants to stay I'd keep him as an option. He's a better option at CB than both of the above and can also fill in 2 or 3 other positions if need be. I'd argue he is just as good as Duffy to be honest but only seen the big man in club football a few times so can't comment too much.

    And then proceeding to suggest he meant to say something else.

    I'm just meaning in the sense that he said when he gets older he may have to move into CB as opposed to RB. Well now he is older almost 30 so I'm guessing that's what he meant when he got to a stage where his legs started to go for the RB position.

    Now you're just being pedantic. Yes, let's keep a player who has consistently cost us points and makes stupid mistakes in almost every game, because over 3 years ago he played in a team that beat Barca.

    It makes total sense

    Sviatchenko, Toure, Duffy and Simunovic as our defensive choices would be absolutely superb, anyone who doesn't agree is aff their nut. We still have a few others who could cover for the likes of Patrick or Hamilton if needed..
