Transfer Talk

If our midfield wasn't as strong as it is Joe Ledley on a free woulda been brilliant.

 

Jan kirchhoff out of contract, still only 27. If over his injury not a bad shout for cb

 

Forgot that Bacary Sagna was still a free agent. He has played centre back quite a few times in his career and looked solid. Also can play RB obviously so would be a good addition. Wonder if he would consider coming here with European football?

Only 5"9 right enough but is a solid defender. Seem to remember he is good in the air despite his height.

 

surprised no one in Europe has went in for Trent Sainsbury, admittedly the aussie national team has been dog * lately and may not even qualify for the WC.
2 years in Holland then went out to china...spent 6 months now on loan at Inter Milan interestingly enough. comfortable on the ball and can pick a pass for a CB

 

If he's anything like his surname he'll be overpriced and disappointing

 

Why cos he always hangs around waiting for pics and pretends to be ITK.

 

* up.

 

no, probably because he goes to every single match he can go to home or away, even pre-season friendlies against austrian 2nd division teams. he probably buys every single bit of merchandise the club releases. probably knows as much about every one of your youth players as chris mc cart does

he probably talks about celtic to every new person he meets just to make sure they no about our club and even when he went to meet the pope, his first thought was about celtic and giving the pope a jersey

the guy even chose a job in asda over tesco because the uniform was green

 

See Bassong and Flores still on frees, got decent experience, even 6 month deal.

 

Too late for champions league now anyway mate, so pointless signings as neither are a viable long term upgrade and we could win the league with Nir Bitton and Kermit the Frog at centre half.

 

Rivaldos new team are convinced BR will be back in for him following his recovery. Strange move to buy a player when he is about to undergo surgery.

 

Mamelodi Sundowns boss Pitso Mosimane feels Celtic will return for defender Rivaldo Coetzee despite the South Africa international's move to Chloorkop.

Coetzee, 20, was primed for a dream move to the Hoops from Ajax Cape Town in the final days of the transfer window but failed his medical with the Scottish giants due to an irregularity found in a bone of his right foot.

However, with Coetzee now seemingly on the road to recovery earlier than expected and making a move to the Champions of Africa, his new head coach feels Coetzee still has a massive chance of making the step up in Europe.

Celtic targeted the Urban Warrior's graduate due to their shortage of centre-backs, and after failing to sign any of their preferred targets to compete with Jozo Simunovic, Erik Sviatchenko and Dedryck Boyata - midfielder Nir Bitton will continue to feature as an emergency defender.

"Medically his condition will be sorted. He does not have to go through an operation which would rule him out for nine months like everybody said," Mosimane told the Daily Sun.

"He will soon be back, I think three months maybe. The specialist gave us a report and we are happy with the report.

"I think when Brendan Rodgers sees the medical report again, he will be willing to have another look at the player again.

"Football is a game of moments. He is available, you've got to take the chance. Do you want to lose this chance to sign a 20-year-old? Brendan Rodgers speaks so well about the boy because he has been watching his games.

"He possesses international experience Just wait, Rivaldo is a good investment."

 

Why is it that these clubs seem to want to get rid of their best players?

It's one thing to want players to move on to a bigger stage and all that, but both of these teams seem fine (and almost eager) to have him move to Europe.

 

Money.

 

They said he is out for 3 months where as the specialists at Celtic said 9 months to a year!!!

 

Back in for free agent Reto Ziegler apparantly.

 

We where never in for him in the first place according to Brendan, he is just trying to get himself a club! using our name, couldnt play in Europe so no point!

 

Won't be registered for the CL, pish
