    Seriously though, he literally is the most WORTHLESS signing we've ever made.

    It's truly shocking how bad he actually is.

    Like alot if others, I had a teeny hope that he was just taking time to adapt. As well as being saddled in a * dysfunctional side with a lunatic for a manager.

    But holy * he is poor.

    At least with Rafael Shiite we were actually sold a pup, duped by an agent scheme.

    Commper was an outlier, no one was expecting * beckenbaur, but we did expect an experienced CB who had been around the Bundesliga 1 and 2 most of his career. I'm not even sure * happened with that guy.

    Bangura, Derk Bullshitter, Koki Mizuno, Shane Duffy, and many more, all duds. But at least they had the actual semblance of a professional footballer.

    This * doesn't even act like a human, nevermind a professional footballer, keeper or not. I wouldn't be * surprised if his head splits open one day and there's two mice at a control panel inside.

    It's literally like someone extracted all the nightmares from Samaras' head, and moulded a humanoid replicant out of the nightmare plasma, stuck a pair of keeper gloves on it, and dropped it off outside Celtic Park.

    I'm seriously still flabbergasted that he has international caps. It's pure * madness.

    Sweet Jesus.

    Can we please talk this guy up a bit?

    How in the world is the club ever going to move him on with such terrible reviews? Surely now is the time to wax lyrical, while we rest comfortably in the knowledge that bar a catastrophe, he'll never make the pitch again (for us). :84:

    which means he will end up in the Seria B, which is usually where average Greek players end up when they want to “test themselves” outside of Greece. I guess it’s like how all the Scottish players end up in League 1 England when they wanna be tested “abroad.”

    he’s not even among the Top 3 Greek goalkeeers. I’m still confused why Celtic forked out so much money for Barkas…

    Someone needs to do a montage on YouTube, of all the great saves he's made whilst being at celtic, might drum up some last minute interest! In saying that I can only remember him making 1 significant save in his entire time here. Maybe just get different angles of that one save, could work.

    The only shocking thing about that, is that he was ever in their national team in the first place

    If it was true he turned down a move to PAOK probably on loan that is really mental on his part.

    He would have had a chance to regain form in his home country, possibly recalled to international side, still got his wage at our level and potentially put himself forward for a permanent move to another league.

    Whereas now he won’t play and will likely just rot away, I really don’t get this one.

    Didnt he tell a Greek journo he didnt want to play in goal anymore ?

    Interesting to see that the top Greek sports agency that manages him has just one client ....him

    What I want to know is who the fxxx recommended him ???

    Can't even get on the bench any more.

    Desperately need to get rid of him in January.

    He played a blinder against us for AEK Athens, that was the extent of the scouting I think :56:
