    The way it's going I'd probably give him a shot at left back if he wanted

    Maybe put him in front of their keeper at our corners. Tell him to try and keep the ball out.

    Surely the worst player in Celtics history?

    Even Rafael Scheidt must have made One single good pass or something. Barkas has made ONE save in his Celtic career and its hard even accepting that he is a professional footballer. By far the worst keeper i have seen in my 36 years.

    Any money recovered from this is a bonus. Needs to go. Still puzzled at his positioning at the West Ham goal in the friendly. Punt.

    Again - where's the explanation for how this shockingly poor signing was made?

    It's not even a one off. Latest in a long list of wasted money and no one every held accountable for it. Fans just shrug their shoulders and hope for better next time.

    He must be moved on in the January window, at any cost.
    It´s mind-boggling that he´s actually got 13 caps for Greece.

    You'd think that our board that like to horde money would think twice before spending money.

    Instead this'll probably reaffirm their thoughts that spending money will always end in a loss.

    They don't see that you can actually spend money wisely. Haggling over £100k for McGinn, letting Fletcher move south when we needed a striker, getting Ajeti over Toney because he was the cheaper option. There's countless times where we have been suicidal in the transfer market. One every window at least nowadays.

    That is crazy that he has that many caps for Greece a side who usually are pretty tight defensively.

    Indeed. When they've been good, they have been nigh on impossible to break down.

    As you say, crazy.

    It's got to be some kind of mental or emotional problem. He's so lethargic and unconvincing even in his basic movements, there's no way he's been that way his whole career.

    Yep. All the more reason to put the guy out of his misery. Change of scene, fresh start.

    We bought the wrong AEK goalie. His uncapped, countryman Giorgos Athansiadis, was saving balls with his face yesterday as Sheriff Tiraspol won at the Bernabau.

    At 10 grand a week, I've got no sympathy for Barkas. He's got enough money to pay for a therapist to remind him that he was a professional goalkeeper, that played for his country and cost us £3.5-5m euros.

    Possibly our most expensive goalkeeper transfer fee in history.

    The irony of coming to that conclusion about Athanasiadis based off of one game……
