    We got an option to buy Kamara. We got a chance to buy Braafheid aswell, 'cause is isn't popular in Munich. But we'll spoil this chance if we don't play him. He's the best left back Celtic have got in years, why the * shouldn't he play if there excist any chance to sign him this summer? Even if he isn't, we have to buy a new left back this summer, because we can't play with any other player in the squad in that position. That makes your point pure nonsense.

    Robbie Keane is the only player we haven't any chance to keep, but if you only want to play him in friendly games in Nothern Ireland, fair enough. I would personaly think that would brainless.

    Morten Rasmussen is a good buy 'cause he add something new to the squad. But in this moment it isn't our scoring accounts there is the problem, so why play with a player that contribute less in a whole match that Fortuné and Keane do in five minutes?

    If people want to do him a favour, then don't make him to a Messiah, because he isn't. He's a supersub, who scores important goals against lower sizes teams.

    At this time we play against good teams who likes to attack aswell. He dosn't fit into this games, and would just like against the Dons dissapear. I don't want the whole team to change to play, and play kick n' rush.

    I don't give anything to whatever he can be a part of the danish national team or not. I can't imaging anybody lie to him and tell him that he would play every game. That Mowbray wanted a lot of new players this January wasn't any secret, and it couldn't be any surprise that he added further to the striking force when McDonald left the club. That was his own decision to come to Celtic. Don't switch to a bigger team if you demands to play every week because of claiming a spot on your national side.

    Bullocks about the Samaras comparing. He's a another style of footballer than Rasmussen. If you want Rasmussen to play on the wing, then it's laughable. His pace and high fits perfect into Mowbrays tactics late in games when we have a lead to defend. I don't have any complains about his entré in the last two games. He did what he was put on the pitch. Just when Rasmussen scored against Accies.

    Two different kind of players. Two different tactical options. No idea to bring Rasmussen on the pitch, when Samaras suits better to the job the sub have to do.

    When does Samaras ever suit better? He is a terrible player and I don't understand why some people rate him.

    You could see my point if your antipathy against Sammy didn't blind your opinion.

    I'd like to see more of him but circumstances have dictated otherwise, we haven't been short of options up front and at the moment Fortune and Keane are clicking.

    I think he could come on and sink the huns, it depends on the type of game, if we get down the flanks and get crossess in, then he will do it!, if there is a lot of play in the box, he will break there hearts, but listen, i can see keane slaying them next week, he is a BIG GAME PLAYER, and with the pace of fortune, and aidan back, we COULD see an absolute humping dished out!

    Samaras and Rasmussen are both strikers. Once Samaras came on yesterday Keane was up front himself.

    Was puzzled that Sammy came on instead of Ras yesterday, but perhaps the bigger picture is that Mogga thought our front two were causing enough problems & better to keep Ras for next week if we're chasing a goal towards the end of the game.
    The Keane signing will obviously curtail his playing time this season, but I would think we'll probably see more of Ras & Fortune as a partnership next year.
    For this season he'll have to be content with being a super sub, bearing in mind that he's now at a better club with a higher profile in Europe, I can't see him being too upset.

    Good player and should start every week .

    We have needed a goal scorer all season and when we get one we put him on the bench...

    I would play him every week. As has been mentioned he is the poacher we have cried about for ages!

    I would play him and Keane. Fortune is too hit and miss for me. He isnt that good outside the box to justify a starting slot and he isnt good enough in the box to get a start! Keane hasn't really played as an out and out striker for ages. When he plays for Spurs he runs the channels, alot more effectivley than Fortune does for us.

    If Keane and Ras played it would mean Keane could drop off into wee pockets of space and Big Dunc could just be there to slot the ball into the back of the net. It would also be the classic wee man - big man combo. Come on Mogga, give it a try!!!

    theres no choice but to play a guy whos on 65k imo, and Fortune is playing really well, big Ras has just been unlucky.
