    His aim seems to be spot on which is a good sign.

    Aye he certainly knows how to hit the target, done not too bad in this tournament as well

    International career[edit]
    After his impressive performances at club level, Édouard was selected by coach Jean-Claude Guitini for the 2015 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, which France went on to win, scoring 15 goals and only conceding twice. Édouard was crowned as the Golden Player and the top goalscorer after scoring eight of France's 15 goals in five matches, a record in the competition.[23][24][25][26] He notably scored the match-winning hat-trick in the final against Germany.[27]

    Seeing us being linked with a move for Jason Denayer.

    Not really sure how I would feel about this as he was great when he was here, but some of his comments after he left us had me thinking that his attitude was that he was too good to be playing in Scotland. That may or may not be the case, but I would question his hunger if he did come back if he still has that view.

    His career hasn't exactly prospered since he left us either.

    His form last season would suggest he's nowhere near too good for Scottish football, playing alongside VVD probably made things a lot easier for him.

    Woudln't say no, but its hardly the big signing we want.

    According to the boss, our transfer activity is over.

    Despite having no wingers for Mikkelsen and no cover centre half. Going to be a long season for County.

    He's reportedly away to Galatasary and by all accounts down south we weren't even in for him.

    I'd have taken him, he done well with Galatasary the last time and was poor at Sunderland in a shambles of a team where he was punted out to nearly every position.

    He's a player I think, but not coming anyway.

    Hopefully another gem, Dembele was let go by PSG at 17 so let's hope this boy could be another one to fall through the cracks of a super spending club.

    Aden Flint is a centre back we've been linked with.

    At first glance looks a strange one, he's 28, plays for Bristol City and hasn't played at a higher level.

    Must have something though as he's valued at about 5 million and has been linked with many EPL clubs like West Ham etc.

    Would we pay 5 million for a 28 year old player from Bristol City?. . . I wouldn't have thought so but who knows?

    I think our new signing might be trying to tell us something on Instagram.

    He'd probably be successful domestically if he were to sign, as he is such an attacking threat from set pieces but he's not good enough defensively to be the improvement Celtic need in that position for Europe.

    Good too see Scottish sides turning down stupid offers from English clubs for their players.

    Motherwell getting bombarded with bids for Cadden and Heneghan. Marvin Johnson who they sold for around 400k last season has just went for £3 million.

    Motherwell getting 25% of that fee apparently which is good for them.

    What are your opinions on Liam Henderson? rumoured as a possible target for PNE.

    Ryan Fraser apparently on the move to Nescastle for about £12m too.

    Good player, great technical ability just needs a run of games but has no chance of that at Celtic.

    Could have a similar type of impact down south as Jackson Irvine.

    Thanks for that.

    He's not a bad player tbh. Nothing special but the proverbial 7/10 player every week,

    Best corner taker we have by a mile.

    Disappointed he hasn't made the grade as there is a good player there.

    Heard we will accept around 300k for him.
