I'd be very surprised if that was accurate tbh. I doubt we'd pay that for someone who wouldn't have much sell on value.
They’re not. The only first team strikers we have are Griff and Edouard. About the midfielder scoring? Didn’t take it as a serious question tbh. Are you autistic? Ntcham isn’t a holding mid btw.
Think we've tracked him since we played them, the reports saying Anderlecht refused as they described him as indispensable. While we should have got players in it puts to bed some of the nonsense that we were stockpiling cash and refusing to spend it, we also bid a lot of cash for McKenna and had a right back lined up that knocked us back at the last minute and went to Valencia for around £6m.
We will see if we go back in for him... I personally think we will need someone of real quality in because if Ntcham continues the way he is going and puts in performances in the EL then he won't be here next season, so we got to plan ahead and not be left in the same situation like we where with Dembele.
There.. there.. Mintypick. Take your medication & wait awhile.... probably 6 months! Mintypick are you really a student of the game of football?? Do you know how it is played, the positions, the formations, the tactics, the laws of the game???? Have you ever officiated a game? "Not being picky, just being accurate." A pity you dont know your own team! Its a poor reflection. For all your efforts for being allegedly "accurate", you really do have to follow Celtic's games a .. lot .. more .. closely: Michael Johnston -in Celtic's 3-0 win over FK Suduva: substituted in 79th min.: "Celtic - Striker #73"; Then there's : Football (Sky Sports) & ... Michael Johnston | Football Stats | Celtic | Age 19 | Soccer Base "Michael Johnston. (Born 19 Apr, 1999) Forward for Celtic. Current season & career stats available, including appearances, goals & transfer fees." As for Arzani, check out (Again!) Celtic FC - Detailed squad 18/19 Arzani is grouped with the other 2 strikers = even 'same colour', NOT the colour of Bain, or Tierney, or of Rogic, .... btw Celtic v Rangers : Scottish Football (Sky Sports) Formation: 4-2-3-1 Ntcham & Brown are both Central Midfielders (otherwise known as 'Holding Midfielders') protecting Celtic's defenders from opponents attacking plays. Do you know what a No.10 players is? [Google on "Holding midfielders in the world" & see what you get- "central midfielder", ..."defensive midfielder"] Players even interchange their positions when not in possession. Have a nice day!
You are definitely autistic, or just stupid. Johnston and Arzani are wingers, not strikers. In answer to your questions, yes, yes, and yes. Ntcham is not a holding midfielder by any stretch of the imagination. He's a central midfielder who plays as a roaming playmaker. Scott Brown is a defensive holding midfielder.
He never really had any legs to lose. Fitness would be the bigger worry. At his age it is hard to stay match fit without games. He is in the NI squad for Bosnia, and would normally be 1st choice. So if he doesn't play that is a bad indicator. However, if he does play I will be there yo see how fit he is. He did look OK in our last three friendlies, so he may be alright.
Oh Petty One MintyPink, [Happy to debate sh.it with you! ] Have you ever played an elite game in your life?? How about MintyPink Junior?? [btw you havent answered (specifically) whether youve officiated games or know very much about football- youre a Vacuum, a Vacant Lot! ] How Petty are You to lower BR & Celtic FC's selections by typecasting elite footballers who are versatile, play in a variety of formations in different positions to being "accurate", ................ & thats all theyre good for??!! Actually, how dare you? The simplistic mentality you have Celtic FC can do without. From the start of BR's 2nd year at Celtic he saw the Big Picture, Something Greater for Celtic FC than simply "Winning the Treble", BUT making an impact on EUROPE = a la Liverpool FC = Why Not??!! Two years down the track we have clowns claiming petulance in being "accurate" for player's positions, what a great position to be in?!!!! Glad you have now demonstrated to this Forum your lack of knowledge of football. Now go back to your toys Pink One- Youre a loser.
Yeah pace and fitness was never his strong suit, but you've got to be a certain standard to be a professional and very few outfielders his age are able to be at that standard, regardless of their speed and position. Gerrard's is six months younger than McAuley, and been retired for 2 years so he'll know that himself. He's may well get picked for Northern Ireland, but only ahead of Aaron Hughes who's older than him, so I don't think that indicates whether he's past it or not.
If he gets picked of Cathcart, given where both of them are in there careers, it'll be a terrible decision and doesn't really tell us anything either. Cathcart's in the form of his career, playing out of his skin in the Premier League and McAuley hasn't deemed good enough to play in the Premier League for over seven months.
Cathcart has been in this form since we got him. Was just injured last year. A very reliable and underrated defender. On a free too!
Rangers aren't signing the Gareth McAuley of 2015 or 2016 though. It's not about him as a player, every dog has his day and West Brom certainly felt that he'd had his day. Ashley Williams captained Wales to a Euro's semi-final, and was a rock for us as captain for club and country for years, but at 34 now he's well past his best and struggling in the Championship. McAuley's done well to perform at the age he has done, and has surpassed expectations, but Rangers can't expect someone who's not played any sort of regular football for seven or eight months to come in and hit the ground running when he's turning 39 soon.
Heard it all before with EPL players coming up here when they are past it and thinking it will be easier for them, they are soon found out. I know he's not a former EPL player but have a look at the Bruno Alves thread last season, folk telling us he'd rip it up in this league. . .he was piss poor. I had read into him and saw many saying his legs had gone, if you don't have that in this league then you're going to be a failure at Centre back. I have no idea what stage McCauley is at but at nearly 39 you can only guess.
Remember reading the thread (unless there is more than one thread)and seeing him slagged off before he had kicked a ball, don't remember anyone saying he would rip it up? Safe to say he hasn't.
"embarrassing"? Not at all. Highly entertaining! I havent had so much fun for ages. Youre good value Mintee. Strongly urge you to do parties, & if ever you need a manager, yours truly is available! Seriously with the departure of Dembele, the selection of Striker Mikey Johnston, consistent with BR's philosophy of blooding young footballing talent, is a good move by BR, as it frees up his dependency on Edouard & Griffiths up front for all the games the team will play. Now, hopefully Rogic can have some time properly rehabilitating his suss knee.
Four or five posters all stating on that thread he would be a good asset for them and would do well up here. Also got the one usual ignoramus stating he wasn't that good for Portugal but would do well up here in this 'shit show' league. Always great looking back on idiotic posts like that.. . .oh and sorry if you're struggling to remember things these days.. Also the term 'rip it up' was a generalisation and wasn't quoted as actually said.
