Midtjylland v Celtic Thursday November 6th kick off 5:45 TNT sports 2

Was worse with Henri Camara, wan’t even that available we paid a record fee for a loan there at the time

Last summer we done it well, earmarked and had the deal in place when it eventually happened O’Riley going, Engels coming in. Forward planning at least that.

Best we’ve ever done it was Edouard and Dembele, it’s such a rarity it stands out.

We’ve stopped any pretense of it now. We all knew Kuhn was going, the club have said we blocked it in January and knew in summer he was away. He went early.

Our RW’s are 34 year old Forrest, Maeda who is better on the left and the middle than RW but is the best option for it, and Yang.

That’s criminal. Maeda last season 31 goals, electric, this season sacrificed to his worst position with little chance to help get the best out of him.

When Jota does return, we’ll probably do the same to him. Best as a LW, but will be the best option on the right.

 

Give us another shot

YESYESYESYES

Glad we got a goal.......
could have been worse

 

Looking at the fixtures wee needed a point from this can see us getting 7 points and it not being enough

It’s mental to think that squad we played last night was assembled for €27m (12 players) and supplemented with 5 academy players.

Olafsson
Diao
Lee
Erlic
Bech Sorensen
Bak
Mbabu
Castillo
Bravo
Billing
Gogorza
Simsir
Byskov
Osario
Cho
Franculino

Now don’t get me wrong that hasn’t happened over night for them but basically they made some really good moves this summer adding the experience and physicality of Billing and Erlic to a young talented team. They also have Mbabu as another older head who has played EPL and Bundesliga and Bech Sorensen who has played EPL.

They have clearly done well from the Korean market and also from getting guys in from lesser South American ones both Chile and Columbia. They have developed some excellent young talent themselves and spotted overlooked young talent from other clubs such as Franculino.

Now their model is not directly comparable to us as they have won very little over the last number of years and if we go back a year and have the team that took Leipzig apart we give a far better account of ourselves but it does go to show if you do recruit properly there are still good players out there in a number of categories that could enhance our squad.

 

@Foley1888 was actually getting annoyed watching Billing, the sort of player we desperately need. A guy we could get, and wouldn’t have the intelligence to do so.

And he bitched us, for a much smaller club that puts us to shame for how they operate . Guy controlled the game, was solid and his experience was vital for them. He would get a foul any time he decided, drew us into it, went down when itd be useful. Not diving or that, just making us do it. It reminded me of Sutton doing it
