A question for everyone and anyone who wishes to answer.
If SG gets the Gig, I've read opinions that he'll inherit a better squad this time around.
The question though, how does the squad he inherits this time around compare to the squad he left behind last time.
Kent v Gassama
Morelos v Miovski
Just 2 examples
But many more match ups
Interested to get some opinions.

Our defence last time was better when he left
Tav younger
Goldson as much as he was a bomb scare at times I don't think we ever replaced him
Balagun etc etc

Think Kent is actually better than some their just now
Kamarra, Basey, Aribo, Borna

Definitely had built a better squad

I'm not sure on all the players we have just spent on
Sorry to say.

Gassama has scored more goals now than Kent done in a couple of seasons, Morelos is a hard man too replace, unreal on his day that not many defenses could deal with.

Ability wise we are better mentally we are far far weaker.

Genuinely worried if we end up with thelwells preferred candidate Rohl, I don't rate him and if I'm honest I don't want him near the club, another Martin if Thelwall gets his way.

If and its a very wee " " (yup-that small) Stevie takes the gig, he will have better tools (pardon the pun) to work with.
We have so many good players. Just look at the International players we have who have been ruined. Give these guys a bit of freedom and they will run riot.
We also have big Dion coming back (hope he can stay fit)

How many first team players do we have from the last time Stevie was here? Yup that is some transition!

White horse, I agree.
With the right man in, this league can be won.
Celtic don't look beatable this season.
Hearts won't stick the pace.

08 Oct 2025 20:01:01
Dion who? Oh yes, I remember him well. how many games do we think he will last this time?

08 Oct 2025 19:53:14
13/14 internationals now, we had nothing like that in his his first squad.

08 Oct 2025 19:53:42
Without counting u21 etc.

08 Oct 2025 20:30:35
@ Bar72, well at least this time we don't need to rush him back. How many positions was that guy asked to cover. A tank of a player and his last injury (as soon as it happened) you could tell it was a bad one.
Small steps on this one and no need to rush back.

And to be fair to you mate. I so hope am right.

# that should have read Celtic look beatable this season #.

08 Oct 2025 20:44:27
Played that many positions he was nicknamed the wanderer
I'll let the older posters work that one out.

08 Oct 2025 20:46:20
Don't think we can win the league this season because we will drop points and won't win every game and we have given two teams a massive head start.

08 Oct 2025 20:57:07
Many points will Celtic drop? 5 games out of their last 10 goalless which tells me many, Clement came in after more than seven games and was seven points behind, this league isn't finished after seven games.

08 Oct 2025 21:12:07
Wh, funny thing I said to my pal before the Falkirk game " let tav and raskin select the team and the tactics and i'd have put a wager on us winning that game, let's be honest most of us were willing to give Russel Martin a bit of space in the beginning to see how it worked out ( maybe more in hope than expectation ) because we sll support Rangers fc regardless of who our manager is, we were wrong about Martin, let's hope we do better with the return of Gerrard, my main point being rm never knew our league was as tough as it is, ps, I think the opposition go that extra yard when they play us .

Dujon has been doing intensive rehab at a special-ist centre in the middle East recently, believe he had an underlying problem on top of his achieves injury that was identified and appropriate rehab regime was put in place. He's now back training as of RR update 2 hours ago.
