    Hope not. This is a massive season for us, we cannot afford to have anyone that is not fully committed to the cause.

    Get him punted and bring in someone who wants to be here.

    Hopefully he starts to string together some good performances but it should be borne in mind that Kalju were not anything special and our players should stand out against an opponent of their quality when the tie is all but wrapped up already.
    Its the next round where our players need to stand and make themselves counted.

    I very much doubt he can impress enough between now and the end of the window to get his move now. January at the earliest, but I think it will be the summer.

    This type of guy will be lit up for personal gain. If he puts in the performances he will be rewarded with the move he wants . Celtic win then by 1) getting a season/half season of good performances 2) transfer sale 3) move on a player on good wages who doesn't want to be there. Personally would be sick to see us be bullied into letting him go on the cheap

    Sorry but I see Ntcham as the type of player to throw the toys out the pram and have a tantrum to get his move away.

    I wish it was the opposite but I'm not optimistic of that happening at all.

    In order to impress we would have to play him. Given his performances last season and his disrespect towards the club, he should be nowhere near a starting spot for me. What message does that send to the likes of Christie, Henderson, Kouassi etc. if they're being overlooked for a guy that publicly talks down the club and doesn't try a leg?

    This upcoming season is massive. Far too big for us to gamble that Ntcham will stop turning up with a sour puss and put in a bit of effort. I'm not up for us punting him on the cheap but likewise I'm not up for playing anyone whose commitment is in doubt. We need a squad of 25 or so that are fully committed to Celtic Football Club and that will give blood, sweat and tears to bring us success.

    I would hope it has been pointed out to him he can only move if other clubs want him, and for that to happen he has to be playing and putting in performances. He needs to fight to get his place back to earn his move elsewhere.

    Alas your 11 month old daughter is not a celtic player, so that isn't really relevant.

    Not suggesting we play him unless he is performing . But if he knows good effort and performances is what will get him the move well then you may see better performances

    Fair enough. I'd far rather give starting slots to people that want to be here.

    This guy is more likely to stop the nine or hamper our chances in Europe than anybody else. We saw what damage unhappy players can do at the start of last season. Get him out.

    The way we sign players , would be madness to let him go this window unless big money comes in. Very little options if brown or McGregor got injured

    Total nonsense. If he has mentality issues he won’t be playing.

    If his heid is screwed on, he’s a Champions League level centre mid.
