    Happy with both. Even for the sake of more bodies if nothing else.

    You’re not being greedy, we need both.

    We sold two first team right backs in January and haven’t replaced them. We had to punt one left back on loan due to his stupidity and are left with someone who does a job but we need better. Full backs need to be the priority now.

    RB, LB, CB, LW and ST would keep me content till January. See how we go.

    I still think another two senior CB's wouldnt go a miss. Carter-Vickers and Itakura, ideally.

    We're gonna have one of the strongest squads in the Europa Conference League for sure... :fear:

    Seriously though, none of these guys can play until next round of matches, right?

    Definitely M8. I have just became so accustomed of seeing our board perhaps signing one or two players and thinking we should be grateful for that when, in reality, we need about 8 new players in the door.

    Can he play the pressing game for 90mins? He's had some nasty injuries.

    James McCarthy is a Republic of Ireland internationalist who has been capped 43 times for his country.

    James began his career at Hamilton Accies, making his first-team debut for the club at the age of just 15 back in 2006. After three years there, he moved to Wigan Athletic where he helped them to win the FA Cup in 2013 before he moved on to Everton. And after six years at Goodison, the 30-year-old joined Crystal Palace in 2019.




    And James McCarthy said: “To have signed for Celtic is a brilliant feeling and this is a special day for me and my family.

    “I know all about the club, the size of it and all the success it’s enjoyed, particularly in recent years. I’m looking forward to pulling on the Hoops, playing at Paradise and helping the team deliver more success to these amazing fans in the seasons ahead.”

    It's a good question, he used to be a monster in terms of stamina when he first went to Everton. I'd be interested in seeing how many times he's played 90 minutes for Palace.

    It's certainly a start and hopefully with 2-3 more signings we will begin to look more solid and can implement Ange's style. He needs backed. We have a decent looking spine in Hart, Julien, McCarthy, Forrest and McGregor. If Starfelt and Furuhashi can justify their fees and we add a striker and right back we should be competitive at least.

    As Chiellini, you should know pace isn't everything. :86:

    Happy with this! I can see him slotting in nicely. Hopefully better than Brown last season. More or less his replacement.
