    Will Simunovic ever be able to play on an artificial surface again?

    Again I wonder what the * Brenden was thinking sending Sviatchenko away on loan, we just saw in the first half of the season that not having enough back up at CB was a huge problem

    He wanted guaranteed game time that we couldn't give him. Nothing wrong on either side of this one. He gets his time on the pitch, we brought in 2 players to fill his space. Fact that the main one got injured straight away is just bad luck...

    Big Erik is honking. Sooner Ajer, Hendry or even Bitton. And I hate Bitton

    Bitton and Ajer are midfielders, and Hendry has only proves himself at Dundee, which is a lot less than Erik has done

    Erik hasn't proved himself at Celtic, hence he's in Denmark right now. Rogers clearly doesn't rate him.

    Started out promising and fell off the horse completely. Milk turns quicker

    He had plenty of good games for us, he wasn't at the same level as last season after his injury, but to send him away when we need CBs was a stupid idea

    I thought Svaitchenko was a decent player. But clearly he is not Rodgers type of player so it is best for him and the club he is moved on. Hopefully a deal is worked out in the summer for a permanent move for him. As for hating Biton what is that all about? Why would you hate a Celtic player. Ok Biton may not be someone you rate but hate really. Personally I think Biron is a good player to have in our squad but regardless hate come on that is way over the top.

    Hardly, his injury set him back but he was 1 of the few natural CB's we had in the squad, we already saw a few months ago how little depth we had there, no reason to let him go when we need all the help we can get

    No point keeping a player BR clearly doesn’t rate.. he’s slow and cumbersome, gives away too many fouls in dangerous areas.

    Wrong again, any player coming back from injury is not going to be 100%, and the less game time the longer it will take to get him back there, and obviously you don't know what BR thinks of him as a player

    It’s is obvious what he thinks of him, that’s what he’s on loan.. and we’ve brought in Compper, Hendry and developing Ajer..

    Sviatchenko is done here.. it’s obvious.

    No it's not obvious, Compper is injured Hendry is a young player only tested in the SPL, and Ajer is a midfielder

    You’re flogging a dead horse.. don’t know if you want to ride Sviatchenko or something, but he’s done here face facts...:56:

    So you somehow know that a player we signed 2 years ago for 1.5 million is done, just because he has gone on loan, get a grip son, Brenden sent him out on loan to get playing time, but it cost us a CB at a time when it seems all of our players are dropping like flies to injury and we could really use the backup, and Ajer has been at CB for what less than a year, after playing his whole career in midfield, he will need time to properly adapt to a level that we need

    Got to agree, sometimes when a guys not playing he becomes a better player, he did start well but the guy lacks any aerial presence and is slower than a week in the jail, before he got dropped he was playing poorly aswell
    Sooner have the young lad Ralston back in at the back

    Son lol... I’m 43..

    If we could have sold him in a permanent deal we would have.

    Ajer played all of last season ar CB at Killie, he’s a CB.. and already looks a better one than Sviatchenko.

    He will move in the summer.
