    Yeah you're right, put him at LB instead. He would be miles inferior as a player at DMF compared to McCarthy at present. . He can not handle the task,he is not adaptable and Ange can not trust him in that position because of his lack of experience. How he ever managed to be playing for Croatia as a defender is beyond me.
    So we will just have to wait till January till we get a DMF player who will automatically fit in to the squad and be fit enough to play in the first team as soon as he arrives.We should not be considering any playing options because we do not have any possible utility players to consider for that position at present till the issue is resolved.
    I also remember Juranovic stating when he arrived that he would not be happy playing anywhere except RB for Celtic and would not take the field otherwise. Ralston is not capable at present at RB and Juranovic can not possibly take his place if he was injured because the option is not there.

    Yes, you are right. You are the Guru.

    Looking forward to January transfer window and players Ange may be looking at, according to most recent reports.

    A couple of players from Japan may be wearing hoops in the new year.

    Recent speculation regarding young and promising defensive mid-fielder from Gremio FC in Brazil - Fernando Enrique. Great passer of the ball, two good feet and a powerful shooter at goal from 30 yards out.

    Don't read it. Ignore it. Shut up. I know what to to expect from you. I don't want to make you anxious. Don't respond, just like I do not respond to your posts. You have a right to your opinion.
    I was responding to a reply from someone else if you had bothered to read further back. So if you do not understand that is your issue.

    George, no one knows who you're talking to, half the time you're quoting yourself and talking absolute bollocks.

    As an FYI, juranovic played right back/wingback in a back 5 in his last game for legia when he scored that goal you talked about. Not a defensive midfielder that you amazingly claim he should now be deployed as at Celtic.

    Stop talking absolute nonsense and folk like myself (and many others) will stop calling you out on it.

    Juranovic saying that is just a soundbite for the press. It’s just a different way of saying, “I’m committed to the cause!”

    He shouldn’t and won’t be played as a midfielder.

    Did not say he would. Am saying that he could be a stopgap option in that position for the interum because no one else at present except Callum is good in that position but we would prefer to see Callum in an attacking/creative role rather than in a holding role. I believe Juranovic has the ability to play that holding position.
    Sorry for having an opinion.

    It’s a crazy opinion and a terrible idea.

    I like the way he mentions about looking at players with the right mentality to come here. Plenty of managers have said that in the past but firmly believe he means it.

    Says he knew kyogo could handle it for example and had asked his previous coaches in Japan about him.

    Hope he can get his own recruitment team together as I feel we could find some absolute diamonds from across the world.

    Well, he's seen Japanese players, and their general traits, and liked working with them. They make his footballing style easiest to implement.

    Lost a bit of faith in him for a wee spell but I'm back on board..

    Team is starting to look just that. A team. Some of our football is tight off the training ground with him and clear to see..

    Looking more solid and no surprise now we've got option's and more coming back in to the fold..

    On his relationship with reporter's... at first I thought it was a riddy, especially after a poor performance. Now though I 100% love how he goes at them because he's got them sussed. Isn't just doing it with soured grapes after a defeat. He's rightly ripping them to shreds after good, dominant wins where they still nitpick and look for faults..

    Well in Ange..

    That was low key one of his best press conferences. Enjoyed that, very informative.

    Seemed more relaxed with the journos than he has sometimes. Maybe he's got them tamed.

    Yawn. Never said any of that, as you well know.

    He’s a right-back, bottom line.

    Throwing the guy in to deputise in yet another position to which he isn’t suited would be shooting ourselves in the foot, and risking the lad’s confidence.

    Ok , now you have put your viewpoint, including your yawn. You say he is not suited, I say I believe he is. Very civil, no sarcasm for cheap laughs at someone else's expense, and divested of expressions of being patronising or having a sense of entitlement seeing you have been on this thread since 2012.

    Remember we are expressing opinions, not finding a chance to slag other people. I am not competing with people.

    I hope Celtic win today, do not concede a goal, there are no injuries and it is an entertaining game.

    Have a good day.
