    He has already been replaced though, by Christie.

    That game you mention though is pretty much the only time he's turned up all season so far.

    So, yes, it is amazing how a single game against the manks can influence our opinion

    I see that point but Christie, as brilliant as his form has been, is a different type to Ntcham. Ntcham is more a central midfielder - someone who can push people off the ball - retain it - and get the team moving like a Brown type role - and Christie is more an advanced midfielder / even striker. Apples and oranges matey.

    Mate, I can't think of a single target we'd want that is mental enough to want to see Congerton's cleavage. :sicksmile:sicksmile:sicksmile

    Absolutely, but we currently play better with Christie in the position that ntcham occupies though, that cannot be denied. We also played better when armstrong was in that position and on form and he is a player whose attributes are more akin to Christie than ntcham.

    Also, ntcham, at the moment, is doing anything but retaining the ball and getting the team moving.

    I'm not sure if I'd advocate getting rid now but at the same time I wouldn't be bothered if we did, matey.

    Well furry * matey

    If a big bid comes in sell - otherwise retain and hope for some form to return

    You think the reason folk rate Ntcham is that 1 game against them? :56:

    No, not really but isn't that kinda what you said?

    That any negative opinion of him was based on Saturdays game as opposed to the fact he's been poor all season and hasn't kicked on from the potential shown last year, apart from, really, only 1 stand out. Whilst simultaneously using that 1 game to defend him and at the same time dismiss any others opinion. Surely you see the irony.

    Are you thick? In fact don’t answer that...

    He’s rated because he’s a quality player not because of the game at Parkhead, he is now not rated by some because of last weekends game. There is no irony, dingbat.

    As per usual you take a petty dig at the poster instead of addressing the fairly reasonable point he made.

    You have a serious problem.

    Insults and questioning intellect, cool:50:.

    Ok, I'll play along. I would say it's a stretch to say he's a quality player. He had shown qualities and potential last season whilst being largely inconsistent and in and out of the side.

    This season he has not kicked on at all. Consistency has improved in that his performances have been mostly poor and lazy when in the side. Now appears to have an attitude problem too, even after having been given a new contract with, no doubt a handsome wage rise. Having talent does not always make one quality and potential is not always realised.

    Aspersions were being cast way before Saturdays game in fairness. That was more like the proverbial straw than a radical turning point.

    If we had sold him in the summer i think I would have been disappointed. If we sold him now I don't think I'd be too bothered, dingbat:50:

    You would be best ignoring Paul.

    He’s always trying to insult people.

    Ntcham is not the same thing as other passengers

    Let’s give the 22 year old boy some time to show he is a classy operator. It wasn’t long ago I wanted his babies. Calm the * down the lot of you - he is still a valuable player. Get off his back.

    Lustig bandwagon - I’m not personal in my belief that he is holding us back in Scotland and in Europe. We need better. We will - this window I assume - rectify this after Ryan Jack, a Liverpool reject, tore him about his 10th * in recent memory. He’s indefensible. As is * Big Marv, who I hear is on the way oot

    Gutted. All I ever wanted was to be recognised by the great PaulM1888.

    Ok, hands up, I probably worded that wrong.
    He is currently not performing like a quality player and we are currently a better side and play more exciting football when he is not in it. I think a fair percentage of us would share that opinion.

    He was a marquee signing we really should be seeing a lot more from that type of player.

    Don’t think anyone doubts his footballing abilities.

    It’s simply his * attitude ‘who gives a *’ attitude.

    I haven't met a Celtic fan who thinks he's a pish footballer. The opposite..

    It's 100% his attitude, which is more unforgivable..

    Ntcham (unless he stops being a lazy * or Porto give us a good offer)


    I would like big Forster back to replace Gordon
    2 CB
    1 LB
    1 RB
    1 winger to replace Sinclair
    2 QUALITY proven strikers (NOT projects)

    I think Brown might be for the off so a replacement for him.
