Good afternoon fellow gers (and celtic fans who can't stay away from the most successful club in the world) . I watched the Aberdeen game and, although i give credit to the boys for grinding out a win in what is usually a difficult away fixture for us, i couldn't help but notice similarities to second half of last season: a lot of possession without much product; a lack of ideas against a team that sits deep and frustrates us;and Morelos being kept quiet most of the game. I'm confident we will bang the goals in over the next two home games, but SG (who i do trust and who knows far more than me about the game) needs the board's backing to get a few more players in the door. An old-school target man, to compliment a pacey striker - Mccoist and Hateley come to mind. Take 17M for Morelos, get in Zungu, Maric and Toney or Roofe, and stil have some cash leftover for the end of season staff party (: Be interesting to find out what strikers will come in, so many names in the hat.

If he adapted his tactics and went for a TM in a 2 up top we'd have no problem scoring against teams that park the bus. Its so obvious. ðŸ‘.
03 Aug 2020 12:57:35
Should havs brought barker on and played wider when they went down to 10.
03 Aug 2020 13:11:08
Yeah coldo i can't help but think gerrard has not learned anything from last seasons glaringly obvious mistakes.
03 Aug 2020 13:38:57
Jamie Murphy on the left and Kent on the right is the way to go for me, feel like Hagi was pretty ineffective on Saturday I think if he played a little deeper along side jack he’d have more time on the ball and maybe find that killer pass.
03 Aug 2020 13:43:32
There will be no money for many if you try and sign Toney. He’ll go for North of 12 Million minimum.
03 Aug 2020 13:49:36
I wouldn't say he was ineffective highland, I thought he tried too hard to be too clever. I know paul, his stubborness will be his downfall I feel. Hope I'm wrong🤷â€â™‚ï¸. I do think we need another winger so we can play wide for a TM. ðŸ‘.
03 Aug 2020 14:13:04
Kent and hagi don’t play wife they tuck in nearer fredo because they want space for the full backs and am not saying one way is right and another wrong but that’s how SG wants to play and up until now he has been stubborn on changing tactics/ formation.
03 Aug 2020 14:19:46
Martin Boyle would be a good signing, we need a right winger!
03 Aug 2020 14:27:20
Coldo u assume target man will win the high balls. Seldom the case.
03 Aug 2020 14:29:21
Can't see toney going for that amount mac1591!North of £12million?
No danger in my eyes anyway. I reckon around £7-£8million up front and maybe £2million in add ons max mate.
03 Aug 2020 14:34:26
I've asked this before. If we go 2 up front, who from midfield do we drop?
The obvious one would be kamara.
03 Aug 2020 14:51:15
Wide not wife that’s meant to be lol fat fingers.
03 Aug 2020 14:53:01
mr Grumpy
I don’t think he would drop kamara as he is more of a dm.
If and it’s a big IF SG plays 2 up too then he would have 2 DMs playing in my opinion.
Tho I can’t see him playing 2 upfront much if ever.

An Aberdeen game we completely dominated! Just to put some on here's new found love for the celtic result? Rangers beat Hamilton 1-4 in February! 3-1 in December if I remember rightly, A Hamilton team that finished second bottom of the league, and we beat the team away that finished a point off 3rd!
03 Aug 2020 15:35:25
Barrowlad they also beat us at ibrox effectively finishing are season off. New season, let's hope the gaffer has learned from his mistakes.
03 Aug 2020 15:38:35
Nonsense John that's the whole purpose of target man if he can't win the ball in the air then he isn't much of a target man🤦â€â™‚ï¸. Jelavic miller for example very rarely failed to break teams down and score. No it wouldn't grumpy it would be aribo. Jack and kamara would be holding in midfield. ðŸ‘.
03 Aug 2020 18:04:38
Tell me coldo a good target man we could sign.
03 Aug 2020 18:05:49
Agree re Aribo or Hagi to make way.
Not kamara. Mr grumpy.
03 Aug 2020 20:23:19
Brentford apparently agreed a fee of 5m for toney, so why would he go for more than 12?
