You’d also fancy McLean to get a bit worked up in an old firm. No bad thing, but he’d be a pending red card all game I’d fear.
The signs are that he is prepared to force it. If West Ham or Leeds flash the cash I guess we will really see how much he is prepared to wait. Contracted until 2023 I believe
Isn’t Jeff Hendrick without a club presently? Would make sense for Celtic.
Wasn’t he off to AC Milan a few weeks ago
We don’t really need midfielders, I don’t think he is any better than Rogic or Ntcham who can’t get in the team at present and Soro is also there along with a few promising players in Robertson and Connell.
Hendrick is going to Newcastle
Celtic currently would be a step up on AC Milan
Milan had a really strong finish to the season. I’d expect them to do well next year.
Guys like Hernandez and Bennacer had excellent first seasons for them.
Who’d want to live in Milan, when the Toon is an option
Hendrick is done. Connell is the future
Connell is getting his career ruined at Celtic
How so?
Hes only gone 19, he was never going to feature last season. Earned rave reviews in the reserves and is highly thought of. Hes quite unlucky in that hes trying to break into Celtics strongest line of positions. Ffs even Ntcham struggles
He was getting regular game time in League 1 before he left and hasn’t played a proper game since and it looks like that will continue this season
League 1, with a club who couldn’t even pay their players?
He hasn’t even been capped at u21 level for Ireland, what on earth makes you think he should be getting game time at a big club like Celtic, full of international footballers?
At 17
I never said he should be getting game time at Celtic. He should either be out on loan or playing though. Neil Lennon isn’t going to give him a chance anyway as he’s very anti Irish
If he shouldn’t be getting game time then what is your issue? He might still go out on loan this season. Playing League One football for a team who were getting hockeyed on a regular basis is hardly great experience for a footballer.
It’s not really got anything to do with Lennon being anti Irish, there are very few Irish players good enough for Celtic at present.
I never said he should be getting game time at Celtic. He should be getting game time somewhere though
Is it Celtic as a club that are anti Irish then? Stockpiling young lads then not giving them any chances or getting them decent loan moves
At what level?
Nope, we have had plenty of Irish internationals past and present, it’s simply that Irish footballers are just too shit now for a big club like Celtic.
Duffy is the only current Irish international who I think would improve Celtic at this point in time.
Championship/league 1/SPL with a different club
Why are ye stockpiling them and leaving them to rot? Celtic are not a big club anymore
