Given some of the other stuff he has posted over the last couple of years, I'd be willing to wager it's not actually him.
It's not. Athletes have agencies running their social media.
I call shampooe to the suggestion he doesnt run it himself.
If you watch his IG story and stuff he retweets on Twitter, its him alright

A pretty tiny percentage of professional athletes in the world pay somebody to run their social media accounts. Moussa is not one of them.

:lol: did this agency also have him post a video of him, Ntcham, Eddy and co singing along to French rap in the car.

Maybe he has someone help him write / correct the posts in English but it's him.

There's no chance Moussa isn't posting his own instagram. He may well get some weekly "post this" fromt he Celtic social team but the majority of his social stuff is 100% him. It's mostly him in his motor listening to shampooe music ffs :lol:

Moussa will decide when Moussa goes, no one else. He has a touch of the Bobo's about him, that bhoy. :thumbsup:

I have a feeling he'll run down his contact or else sign an extension -- I think he's enjoying himself. :) I'd love to be right.

Think he loves it up here. Wouldn't be surprised if he stayed for the 10, would actually be more of a surprise to me if he left before hand.
Looked like he enjoyed this years celebrations more than any other so far.

Please stay Big Man
Soaking it up before his inevitable relegation fight next season :ph43r:

on bythemin celtic he was described as Imperious on the pitch and that's exactly what he is in Scotland and could be in Europe (not watched his france under 21 performances)

has a good agent so maybe we have one more season with him

Our players can choose to play for a huge club with middling wages or move to a middling club with huge wages. I’m not sure which counts as a big move these days.
When measuring anything there are many ways to do it and not everyone will agree but surely it’s time to stop denying that almost every EPL club is now bigger than celtic in many ways?

What’s the biggest building in the world? Do you measure by height (why not number of rooms, or volume, number of floors?), if so to the top of the occupied floors or do you include unoccupied floors, aerials, masts etc - there are many disagreements and disputed lists you can read about online

Same with what’s the measure of the biggest club
Number of attending fans? Number of global fans? Size of stadium?
How about cumulative viewing figures including opposition?
Squad size, number of employees, wage bill?
Number of trophies (isn’t that ‘most successful’ club?)
Number of companies (disputed title holders: Sevco with 2)
What about global TV or online viewing figures, Facebook followers?
- I bet all Scottish teams lose out on that

Edit: I looked up a few measures where Southampton are way ahead
Celtic FC e.g. MAX viewing figure (0.5m Mar 2018, 0.27m in prior Sevco match), Southampton AVE figure 848,500
Celtic FC 1.6m likes on Facebook, Southampton have 3m
Celtic FC market cap £162m (today), Southampton valuation (2017 takeover) £200m
Celtic FC turnover 2018 £90m, Southampton 2018 is £180m

How would Southampton's figures look if they played in a country of Scotland's size/population/TV exposure? And how would Celtic's look if we played in a country of England's size/population/TV exposure?

In that, I think you'd have you're true answer on who the really big club is.

True, but that’s a hypothetical situation that won’t happen. The reality is that Southampton could potentially sign someone this summer and pay them £100,000 a week. That’s why they can attract Celtic, Ajax, Feyenoord and Sporting Lisbon’s best players.

Big game player and last 2 months he has been superb....that said I dont think for a wee while Jan/Feb he was 100%. Whether that be running after balls or committing to tackles he looked a bit distant & it affected our performances as he is so central to what we do.

Godo to see his season ending games he stepped up and bounced back

Celtic could potenttialy do that as well but it has the same percentage chance of happening as it does wilth Southampton. Zero.

I don't know why you are even entertaining that daft op. It reeks of hun or troll.

I`m all for facebook likes as a measure of a clubs size,we`re the 9th best supported club in Europe this season through the gates and are always thereabouts.

If all these social media likes a re a true reflection of a cubs fanbase and popularity why do Southampton have a pishy 30 k capacity ground, surely their capacity should be double ours with double the likes ...........

It should also be noted that you can actually pay to increase your ‘likes’ or ‘followers’.

Loads of idiots in the fitness industry pay for fake batches of ‘likes and followers’ to make it look like they have a bigger following than they do.
