    I highly doubt he'll make it to be honest. He's been not giving a * for so long he'll struggle to get professional motivation again.

    I actually think Edouard could have a similar problem, although it's far less likely.

    If he couldn't motivate himself to play for Celtic, winning games with high quality players in the team, competing in Europe, then he won't be able to motivate himself for a 2-0 loss away to Blackpool.

    I think the same. It's not like with the rest of the squad throwing their toys out the pram last season. That was sort of a perfect storm of players wanting away combined with lacklustre management.

    Ntcham's been surly for longer and I've absolutely no idea why. He was a top prospect in a winning team with every expectation a PL club would come in for him as he approached his prime years. I don't know how you lose motivation on the cusp of becoming a multimillionaire but he seemed to manage it.

    Some strike.

    Usually those went into row Z in a Celtic shirt.

    He did have that in his locker but he'll row z hundreds..

    Doesn't fancy the other side of it regularly though in the battle zone..

    What a dull move for him though. He thought he'd leave us for a big club playing in Europe and he’ll be lucky to finish mid table in the championship whilst living in Swansea :giggle1:

    Exactly what I was thinking.

    Swansea will see him soon enough when they go through a bad patch or need to dig in. He'll be nowhere to be seen.

    At times, he was our best midfielder but the vast, vast majority of times he was nowhere or/and had a poor attitude.

    Swansea is one of the most depressing places it’s ever been my misfortune to have to visit and stay for a week…. There is nothing that the wealth and lifestyle of any championship footballer could possibly do to make it bearable….. short of flying in from the Channel Islands for training and matches.

    He must have been desperate to leave Glasgow.

    One of the worst weekends of my youth was spent down there. Got told to * off on more than one occasion cos 'we hate the * Scottish'. Depressing place, never again.

    They don't. I've been to Wales a lot and have fortunately never had a similar experience to the above.

    Why is he still cutting about in his Celtic gear?
