    Best of luck big man. Imo gave just as much as Hayes, plus he tried to put Miller and Morelos into orbit. Don't think it's any indication there's a CB incoming. I think Lennon will be happy to go Julien,Ajer,Biton,Hamed and Welsh as emergency back up. Not saying I agree with it but I reckon that's the thinking.

    Wow mate. On his day he was far superior to Jozo. His distribution,tackling and awareness were far superior.

    It is no great loss to see Jozo moving on .
    He always reminded me of bambi with the time he spent on his * or he was injured !

    And as I said in my previous post he was a shitebag that faked having injuries and that's why Lennon never played him when the rat left. * that sort of attitude going for the 10

    We will sign a centre half but will we sign two? Because ajer is off, hopefully deas and Welsh can move into centre half contention. I really rate those two and although they aren't starters yet no reason they can't act as 4/5 choice back up

    I thought he was solid in the tackle and in the air. Faking injuries is a very hard thing to prove for me.

    Only 125 appearances in 5 years about sums up his time here.


    On his day, I think he is a good defender, he is very unlucky with injuries and with that knee and not being able to play on plastic. Considering 3 or 4 of the pitches in the league are plastic, that isn't good.
    He also suffers from what I like to call the Jan Venegoor syndrome, where he needs about 5 games to get up to speed after being out the squad for any length of time.

    Seemed to enjoy his time here, and he did do well for us, but we need more consistency and someone who can play every game if needed. Wish him all the best going forward, not a bad feeling towards the lad.


    He done a lot more than these two things, but the Miller tackle and scoring THAT goal after Billy's death will both stay with me for many a years to come.

    We needed another CB before the season finished. Jozo away, we need 2.
    Ajer leaves we will need 3.

    Very good defender on his day but his day wasn’t often enough.

    Still felt that him and Hayes were good squad players. Surprised to seem them both go and it may an indication of the coronavirus impact. Or hopefully we are going to be bringing in upgrades for both positions.

    There's no way we're getting 2 or 3 - Covid will mean all clubs cutting back to a degree and we're no different. It's time to promote the youngsters to backups, whether we want to or not. If Ajer goes, I reckon we'll get 1 CB in to replace him, plus Jullien, Bitton, Elhamed, giving 4, plus the young guys. That should be enough.

    The Cesar header will live with me for a long long time. Still can't quite believe that happened. Spookiest thing ever, goosebumps indeed.

    As some have said though, consistency was lacking.

    Don't mean this aggressively, but I wish folk would stop claiming Elhamed to be a CB for us. Happened a lot with Lustig as well. Elhamed IS NOT a CB and hasn't played there for us (Minus any random makeshift I may have forgotten). If we want to claim Elhamed as a CB, then we need another RB.

    It is good that he COULD play there if needed, same way McGregor could play Left Back, or Sinclair or Morgan could have played as striker. But they arent.


    Beside that, I dont think Ajer will be sold this window now, no chance we let Jozo go if we know Ajer is actually pushing for a move(or we havent sorted that "issue" out at this stage). But we still needed another one before anything else happened. If it is one from the youth, brilliant, but we now need two and I dont think a club like Celtic can take a risk of again needing 2 CB in a season like next.

    Looked as if he was going to be one of our mainstays at CB, but injuries and total * ups put paid to that. If we are being honest he’s dined out on that Miller tackle for a few years now.
