    Rodgers first season, the two games against Man City he looked class, one of the best players on the pitch at the Etihad.
    Saying that so was Roberts

    That’s Doofy being positive.

    When we won the treble-treble he exploded into a light applause.

    Will never be drawn on the Rogic vs O'Riley debate... can't do that. I think O'Riley will probably go on to have an incredible career at a higher level than what Rogic did... However, Rogic gave me so many special moments as a fan and it's why he will always have a very special place in my heart. The Invincible Treble winning goal at Hampden is not just one of the best sporting moments of my life, but one of my favourite ever moments, outside the birth of my children and meeting my wife.

    That was one of the greatest days of my life and it's why Tam Rogic is tattooed with my other Celtic Heroes on my back.

    I do think O'Riley will surprise a lot of us though. For me? I think he's going to be at one of the big clubs and a first team international in the next 3/4 years. I think, with better players around him, he will get even better.

    Yes, he wasn’t good enough to get into the team and had to go out on loan to one of our most important players to win 4 Trebles and a double under Ange, who we struggled like * to replace when he wasn’t playing. Major difference there.

    I do.

    He was poor last season and still had a more productive season (numbers wise) in the league than any season Rogic had.

    He’s been brilliant this season. As I’ve said.

    Inter Milan are considering a January move for Celtic midfielder Matt O'Riley.

    The Serie A club are prepared to offer an initial loan until the end of the season with an obligation to buy him in the summer.


    Inter are among an increasing number of top clubs sending scouts to watch O'Riley, amid an increase in his performance level again this season.


    Aston Villa and West Ham have been watching him recently, as well as PSV Eindhoven and Atletico Madrid, and all of these clubs have been present for his Champions League appearances, in which he made three assists.


    Inter are discussing whether to steal a march on potential rivals by making a move when the January transfer window begins, but it would take a record fee for Celtic to agree to any deal.

    We can't afford to even entertain this in January especially in the middle of a title race, summer I expect him to be off for a record fee.

    We can't hold on to him long term it's just how football works but say we got 25mil I would expect minimum half to be reinvested when in reality we will buy 2 or 3 projects. Its depressing as * how we run our club.

    Only if they have a really good LB or GK to send our way.

    Would be a blow to lose him in January but if the money is right I.e. 25/30 million then it would free up a space to bring in a McTominay or someone of similar stature.

    Should be a firm NO unless we have a top player ready to come in to replace him.

    Even if we got good money for him, you wouldn't trust the Board to spend it.

    A 'Loan to buy' is literally the worst possible option. So we lose him in January but don't get any of the fee to reinvest until summer? I really hope the board find that unacceptable. You want him? Pay a reasoable fee and pay it now.

    He will go in the summer. Not January.

    Couldn't give a * how much we get as it won't go on a suitable replacement.
