Rivaldo Coetzee; Update: Unfortunately for the poor guy, it looks like our medical team were right. [p21]

I really hope Rivaldo Coetzee's move to Celtic goes through. He is one of the best young players South Africa has produced in years.




Question for the height panic merchants. . . . . .If he was getting bullied and couldn't handle physical strikers do you think Brendan would have given this the OK?

Strange signing. Obviously I would like the guy to be a great player but to be honest I would have preferred to see us bringing in a big, experienced centre half. Still we can only hope.
How is it "strange"?
It's the perfect type of signing. Boyata and Jozo are the two CB's. We're not going to sign an experienced CB to sit on the bench.

This way we have an up and coming lad, moving to Europe and will be hungry and willing to learn. He's got 22 caps and we could have another top player on our hands if he develops well.

This is in the mold of about 75% of our signings in the past few years. We shop in these markets, uncover gems (or flops) and (eventually) sell them on.

The fact that he is not big is not at all important. It looks like he has pace and is pretty comfortable with the ball at his feet. He is probably supposed to be the kind of player who will get moves going, a great out-ball for the midfield, and exactly the kind of player we need in a league in which we dominate possession in every game.

Am i the only one who thinks he looks a bit shampooey? I an a hopeless judge of a player, so i hope that my record of, bangura = good Petrov = Rubbish holds up and this bhoy becomes a legend. But A) he looks too wee B) he looks slow and C) Hes not the expensive ready made player i was hoping we would sign.

Henrik Larsson was 5'10" and he was pretty decent in the air.

Just saying like.

Some of the greatest centre halfs of all time were "wee", he doesn't look slow at all and we're not going to sign an expensive ready-made centre half as we don't need one :thumbsup:

This.

He looks fast, clever passes, tidy control, both feet and willing to attack the ball in the air and in slide tackles.

Daniel majstorovic was a big wean eating looking animal at 6'2 and he was absolute pish and slower than a week in jail. Just love the experts here.

Replying to @BadenGillion @celticfc

For all the @celticfc fans...Rivaldo is already the best defender in SA at 20, very good on the ball, excellent passing range off both feet

Can spray the ball with both feet and is decent in the air....very composed on the ball and already an excellent reader of the game...






'DECENT IN THE AIR' :thumbsup:

Most importantly, Great name. One for the future who should be more than adequate for domestic football already. 750k is a good price for someone, very highly rated.
This type of signing has worked out in the past so here's hoping

Slow? That's no being a bad judge, that's being blind.

I hope your right. I hope we have picked up another gem. I trust our scouts. Would have preferred Duverne

Super excited by that. A proper ball playing centre half. And that's before Brendan gets working with him
