    Is that with a sitting midfielder in front of a back 4, would we need that for every game ?

    Man City and Chelsea academy players are all the rage for us just now it would seem, well according to rumours anyway.

    Not the worst avenue to go down.

    Yeah i think it's a good market to exploit tbh, given that the cash rich EPL is laden with overpriced and overrated fitbaw players, a lot of talented players will never see any first team action.

    Yes i know our League aint the best, but we (Celtic) have a helluva lot to offer any player.

    To expand on the above, not the kind of player I was expecting.

    3 goals in 40 odd games, even in Serie A...I was expecting someone with a bit more pedigree. His stats don't scream quality number 10...I'd be surprised if he was any better than Rogic.

    At the same time I trust Rodgers...I was just expecting someone who I thought I'd at least have been aware of.

    He seems like more of a box-to-box type than a traditional number 10, to be fair. Well, that's what I've seen from a few Man City fans.

    Suppose looking at it now.

    Just a bit surprised, he's not even one that I was aware City had on their books.

    I'm with you in all honesty.

    Going by the comments from those who have seen him, and from watching his highlights, he clearly has something about him. But underwhelmed is how I feel as well. Like you said, I never even knew this guy existed.

    I was hoping for someone with somewhat of a reputation.

    Think he's been playing CM for Genoa, mate. I'd expect us to bring in a CAM also.

    Seems like another project type rather than someone who will instantly improve us, tbh.

    Hmmm..I dunno.

    I think we will now focus on CB and the wings and even then that will no doubt not be until our European fate is decided.

    You can tell I've never played FM or Fifa before lol

    As you've previously mentioned, Rodgers has always wanted a quality CAM , someone who can pick out a pass in Europe. Still think he might target one, or maybe a winger who can also play in the CAM position?

    Yeah precisely, however I'm just a bit surprised this player we are signing here isn't the man for that job. Time will tell to be honest, this guy clearly has big potential.

    At this point I'm more than willing to just wait and see how it all pans out.
