Viljami Sinisalo

take fukn fingerprints off the objects thrown... simple. then ban the * from football for life

 

Assuming they have the prints on file, which is rare. And by now the bottle is long gone in the bin.


There’s cameras everywhere, and the bttle was one of many objrcts thrown. Hart had glass thrown, our physio got glassed and needed stitches. They say they’ll investigate and do * all.

It’ll only get worse until us as a club take a vehement stance about it. And publicly, we will be behind the scenes but it needs to be public now.

 

I don't see us getting 3 years from him. Another season sure but would be surprised if it's much longer than that. Him signing season to season makes me think he's thinking similar.

 

3 seasons is me being extremely hopeful I’m not expecting that to happen, I don’t know what we should expect after his injury. I think he’s rushed his recovery, there was a snippet from Rodgers saying he thinks he’s ahead of schedule the medical staff thought.

His interview on The Overlap Podcast he has so much pride and drive in him being available and fit, reliable. And he talked to clubs that questioned that with his age, and you can see that got to him.

It’s a worry, BR knows him well though, if he’s rushed the recovery with the back up doing well and not an issue, he doesn’t need to put him straight in either

 

One huge crime seen behind both goals at Ibrox , that’s just for the looks alone lol

Never happen mind , nets might have to be put up in future

personally I would fine the * and dock them points.

 

I don't have much faith in BR managing the injury and recovery to maximise a players longevity.

If we really want more than one more season from Schmichael we shouldn't be risking him this season.

If Sinasola maintains his form let him have the rest of games this season and you not only have real competition next season but also a way to balance out and manage any niggles fatigue in the main keeper whilst the other still gets game time.

Hart stopped playing for a reason, Butland is becoming a joke for a reason. We could have the best of both worlds for a few seasons to come if it's managed properly.

 

Do mutants even have fingerprints.

 

If this happened in Europe they'd be playing behind closed doors for a season or possibly banned. The SFA and SPFL need to grow a pair, if they don't know who or where it came from, fine no fans. For all they try and villainise Neil Doncaster, he is one big * licker.

That TIFO would have been picked up on too. SFA probably spunked when they saw it.

 

Surely the fact Schmeichel has been one of our best players this season and a leader in the team means he gets his place back? He's earned his right to complete a treble.

Sinisalo has been pretty good, he looks like he'll have a big future here after next seasob, but Schmeichel is a top goalkeeper, a level above what weve had in a while, and will be reinstated for the cup final. No doubt about it for me.

Sinisalo will have his time, but right now it's Schmeichels. He's also here for another year, why not make the most of that?

 

I see that argument and it is a fair one. I just think in this fairly unique case there are risks to that approach and benefits to doing what I suggest that the person managing the long term prospects of the team should consider first.

I have also caveated it with "if Sinasalo keeps his form" as getting the last trophy of the season is important too.

 

Well that was a waste of time discussing

 

I do think Schmeichel should start the final, he's earned it, but I hope Sinisalo starts at least one of the last 3 games, thought it was a bit harsh to drop him today with his performance last game against the huns.

 

Sinisalo has done well and looks a genuine prospect but a handful of games doesn't make him no.1 and it's strongest 11 for the final for me which means Kasper in goal.

I'd definitely hope we'd be looking at giving him the cup games and some domestic ones next season though.

 

Personally I think Sinisalo should start in the Cup Final against Aberdeen, because his performances
have deserved it alone, and he has the confidence to be our No.1 goalkeeper very, very soon.

I get that Schemeichel is fit again, but the Cup Final against Aberdeen is a one offer, winners take all game, and I would be concerned that Schemeichel may not be in the best shape and levels of fitness, to take any chances in such an important Cup Final.

I would give the nod to Sinisalo.

 

Griffiths got booked for getting a bottle thrown at him in Europe nothing done mate. UEFA are clowns as well.

The tifo who cares man? Genuinely, who actually thinks oh noo theyve offended me there. It’s just Huns showing their Huns. * they quoted themselves as the bad guys in Star Wars us the protagonists. It’s * hilarious

 

Celtic's nature Bhoy on staying calm, and cup final chances


It may have been a surprise to some just how well a 23-year-old goalkeeper, whose CV to this point had featured spells in the Scottish Championship, English League One and the odd Football Trust Trophy match for Aston Villa’s under-21s, handled the task of filling the pretty formidable gloves of the English Premier League winning, 113-times capped Kasper Schmeichel in goal for Celtic recently


A run that included being thrown in at Ibrox for an Old Firm debut, let’s not forget, and having various objects thrown at him in the process.

When you speak to Viljami Sinisalo though, you quickly realise that all is not as it may seem on the surface. Not least when the Finn speaks and an accent which is more common on the Holte End than on the streets of Helsinki escapes from his mouth.

It is his temperament though that belies his relative lack of big-time experience, and the calmness he exudes which seems to have a stabilising effect on the defenders in front of him, and has already convinced many observers he has what it takes to be a future Celtic number one.

That has been helped by his commitment to getting out into nature, something he developed a love for in his homeland growing up, and something he has been able to maintain since coming to Celtic. Though, as he gets more recognisable, finding peace and quiet even in some of the remotest locations in the West of Scotland is proving trickier.

“Yeah, I get the factor 50 on and I do love it,” Sinisalo said

“I do quite a bit of that at home. I do enjoy it. Loch Lomond's been our favourite with the missus. So, yeah, it's been good.

“I’m very much a nature type of guy, obviously being from Finland there's quite a bit of that back home. So, yeah, we'll try and get out as much as you can now. Somewhere quiet, peaceful


But you get [fans] everywhere now. It's so big [the club]. You get it everywhere, wherever you go. Whether you go on a golf driving range or just for a little walk in the park, you get a few. But it's fine.
“I went to Conic Hill once and there were a few in the car park there. But people are nice. When you're with other people, people know to leave you to yourselves.

“No-one's ever got a problem with taking a picture. It's not a problem. So, it's been nice.
“I suppose [I’m getting that a little bit more] now that I've played a few more games. People probably recognise you because you're in the limelight a little bit. But it's part and parcel of it. That's why you're here. Everyone wants to play and that comes with playing, so I can't complain



“I understand what it takes to be here. Listen, whether I'm 23 or 33, I'll try and prove that I'm that calm persona in goal you can rely on. That's just what I am as a person on the pitch and off the pitch. I'm quite calm.
“I try and show my personality when I play. That's one of the big things as a goalkeeper - you've got to show that personality and that real presence you've got.
“That probably helps with age. You get better as you go. But, that's just who I am. I'm trying to just show my personality.”

He certainly did that during the recent draw with Rangers, not only in his strength of character to remain unfazed by the missiles being aimed in his direction, but after Celtic scored too. Though, his celebration – which caused quite a stir on social media – almost backfired spectacularly.
“It's funny, obviously, because I've celebrated and the goal's been chalked off,” he said.

“But, I wouldn't know that because I'm celebrating. So, how football goes, you get a bit from the fans and stuff like that.

“Then, there's the VAR check and the goal gets given. So, you celebrate a little bit more! But, that's just how it is. I never like to celebrate too early, though, in terms of there's a time and a place to go and celebrate.
“That tends to kick you in the backside if you celebrate too early. But, yeah, it's nice moments. There's a bit of passion, obviously. I want to play with a bit of passion. That's just who I am.


The Celtic fans will get an opportunity to see Sinisalo in action again during the game against Aberdeen at Pittodrie tomorrow night, with Brendan Rodgers already confirming that he will take Schmeichel back out of the line-up following his return from injury against Hibs at the weekend.

Whether he will be able to do enough to convince his manager that he is the man best-placed to face the Dons again when the teams meet in the Scottish Cup Final remains to be seen, but whatever way that call goes, Sinisalo has been delighted to have been able to contribute to his side’s success in recent weeks.

“I suppose nothing's a given in football,” he said.

“I'm not even focusing that far ahead. I'm just trying to enjoy the moment. Every chance you get to play is a privilege. I'm just happy I've now had the chance to play and I'm trying to show to people that probably haven't seen me as much of what I am and what I'm about.
“That's all you can do. Then if the manager makes the decision, the manager makes the decision. But I can only do what I can on the pitch and try and show in training and on the pitch what I'm about


“If you asked me three months ago of the games that I've now had since I've been in the team, I've obviously played at Tannadice in the league clinching game and played at Hampden, played at Ibrox. So, I would have been happy in terms of that.
“I've managed to experience different things. Every game as a Celtic keeper requires different things. Whether you're playing Kilmarnock at home where you have one shot and you're just passing it, or whether you go to Ibrox and you're expected to make a couple more saves and be very composed on the ball.
“But every game is different and you need that bit of a run of games to kind of show that you can do all those things. You can go in for one or two games and I suppose you can look alright, but it's whether you can then do it for 10 games, 20 games, 30 games, which, for instance, Kasper has done for us this season.

“So, I'm just trying to prove that I can be a Celtic goalkeeper for the foreseeable.”

 

I'd play him against Aberdeen and on trophy day but i'd sub him off maybe 10 minutes to go so he can get a wee cheer for his efforts off the fans knowing he won't play the final since he's done well.

 

He's done well, getting thrown in after CS was forced to play on with an injury at international level, FFS, aye, our goalies can daydream for 88mins in most spl games but then be up against it in Europe V a Bayern or a Barcelona and it was always the plan for Sinisslo to replace CS we've just had a preview that bodes well for the future

 

CS? As much as it would be pretty magical to have Celtic's greatest ever GK, Charlie Shaw rise from the grave to return, it's pretty unlikely... And talk about forward thinking, preplanning for Sinisalo since 1923.

Just kidding, I know you meant KS for Kasper. But couldn't resist.
