    Because I have never wanted him even at his "peak" whenever that was must have missed it he had like one decent season...

    Also there has got to be a small percentage if he does ok he will be seen as a ready replacement for Forster or Atleast till we replace him that's my opinion anyway

    Gordon on his day, is easily better than Forster. We have just signed a ready made replacement for free.

    I'm sure Ronny said to Peter on his first day in the job, 'I want him.'

    Can see Forster going this summer. Tbh think we would be lucky to get £6m for him.

    I dont think Gordon was ever that good tbh, he was decent but overhyped. He was always weak at coming off his line and slightly dodgy, similarities with Zaluska at time where he seemed to dive at the ball with the wrong hand. At his best he was about a £3million keeper who was hyped up.

    In my time of watching the Scottish League at their bests id rate him below Boruc, Forster and Klos, maybe on a par with Niemi and McGregor.

    Welcome hope you do well, funny how some people got behind a French centre half who had more injury problems than Gordon but they where happy enough to give him a chance.

    Fingers crossed he keeps fit cause he is a very good goalkeeper.

    A really disappointing signing. Never really thought he was that good when he was supposedly at his best.

    I'd actually rate McGregor on a par with Boruc Forster and Klos, I think he is a quality keeper. With Niemi I can't remember how good he was just remember him being good lol.
    I think Gordon is up there as well at his best but time will tell if he can get back there

    He isn't as good as Forster. He never was, and he never will be. He is, however, far better than some people on here are claiming. If Forster leaves, I would have no problem with Gordon being given a chance to establish himself as the first choice keeper.

    Some of his best saves, I know videos can make anyone look good and it doesn't show howlers etc, but some of the saves he has pulled off shows that he was good and if he gets back to that we have another good keeper.

    I don't watch the EPL as a rule but I did watch the English Cup final which to me was memorable only by McGregor's howlers .
    Forster is a great Celtic goal keeper ,very consistent .

    Far from convinced about this one. No way is this Deila's idea.
