    The facts don't lie. Balde will certainly help us defensively. No debate required.

    I dont rate Caldwell as being the answer, in fact I dont rate him, I watched the Inverness game Tuesday, and he was doing what many pros attempt, kicking the ball cleanly and stylishly, snag was they werent verygood kicks, nothing near that great ball Naka gave to Miller, then Miller to Pearson.
    But Balde is beyond a joke, and we shall see keep wtching the games, and I still say when he was touted to go to a big club , eg, in Germany I said it was bulshit, and it was!

    It actually wasn't bullshit, he even sat down at a table with a few German clubs. But they believed he wasn't worth the wages. And they are right, no defender in the SPL should be paid £28,000 a week.

    So what's your answer? We're not going to buy a centre half when we have 6 on the books. We have to play someone and Caldwell is not good enough, neither's Varga. When Kennedy's back he may take Balde's place but that's a loooong way away still.

    You can't argue with facts and statistics.

    That sums you up in a sentence. You know that Caldwell isn't as consistent or reliable as Balde and that you are wrong on this one. I'm just suprised you didn't put :87: at the end of it.

    Well you never know.

    Look at Wilson for example. He looks a class act.

    Now you are talking, Caldwell is not good enough for the CL more than likely, we may be improving at left back, this new guy, dont know yet, if we could get Gravessen, that would be a great help, you see even half good players, LoL, like Caldwell, are better with good class in midfield ie Gravessen, Lennon by the way is a problem, for the CL, far too slow, he doesnt help players like Caldwell.
    Now what I have been saying all along is Balde will be fatal, sooner than later.
    Its like the proverbial alcoholic, who the next day starts drinking again, expecting different results, just doesnt happen!

    Can i join the impossible task of making Hubert realise that Balde is not as bad as he loves to make out? lol :50:

    Hubert, out of all the central defenders we have the now, who would be your first choice pairing?

    That was partly a joke.
    I dont find Balde a joke, and my judgement is not on a game or two, in his case its seasons.
    Bring him on, * it took me long enough, correction it took them long enough Tom Boyd and Douglas to screw up for people to see the problem.

    A blind man seen Douglas was a problem.

    MON tried - Hedman, Broto, Marshall all had a run but simply weren't good enough to keep their place.

    I have mentioned before that Tic fans have insisted that some players were ok or good enough for Celtic, let me remind you of three, Tom Boyd, Rab Douglas, and Balde, oh yes there are others.
    Now in regards to answering your question which should be apparent by now, :56: , any pairing presently at Celtic is better than having Balde included.
    Now do we need a partner for McManus, YES.
    I would like to include Kennedy but unfortunately he is still not available.
    Lennon is a problem getting, the STATIC/FATIGUE man.
    Sure was non plus against Inverness, he plays a game that a lot of people you will find at work, they do enough to get by?

    Now your just making an idiot out of yourself Hubert. His African team won all 3 group games and lost 3-2 in the quarter finals.
