Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers puts Reading defender Liam Moore at the top of his January transfer target list.

This. Of course I'd like those CBs to be handy on the ball but at the same time, I want two that strike fear into any player for what might happen if they get too close.

The centre back position has to be addressed. When a converted midfielder is our most reliable centre back something is not right. Bitton has not let us down and fair play to him but we need to sort this situation out asap. Erik is not good enough,Jozo is unreliable through fitness issues and Boyata although greatly improved worries me at times.
With de VRies signing another contract it doesn't look like the goalkeeping situation is going to change although ideally it should.

Maybe if the Tories in Holyrood ask the Tories in the board room, we'll get them this time?

I think in the upcoming transfer window we should be looking for a centre half for the first team so that they're settled by the time next year's qualifiers come around and shift Sviatchenko to make room.

An upgrade on Gordon would be good but I reckon that's more likely to come in summer.

GK, RB, CB, CM, CF and cover at left back all need sorted by next seasons CL qualifiers. Maybe even 2 MF's, Armstrong will leave and Rogic can't cut it at CL level. Alot of work to be done.

The summer is the real important thing for Brendan to look at. Armstrong will possibly leave, Roberts will almost certainly go, Dembele may also leave, we need to replace these guys AND get a proper centre back, not to mention any other decent business like shipping out fringe players and so on.

I can't see Roberts getting a look in at City. I think we might try to buy him.

We are about three players short.

A top class gk & an experienced center back & an experienced cm.

Boyata or Jozo need a partner beside them who is more experienced.

I like the look of Ntcham but if we can bring in a quality cm who has played at a good level it improves us straight away.

Likely because someone on here yesterday said "We should sign him."

Probably. We're obviously going to be looking for a replacement for Roberts though and we could no doubt do worse, he looked fairly useful against us.

Two quality defenders and a reliable goalie would make a world of difference to this team in European games, without any need to deviate from Rodgers’ attacking philosophy.

Dembele will be gone soon - after PSG debacle and his call ups he will never stay into next season - If ukranian is our new guy for europe so be it. We know that LG can't do that role

Two centre backs need moved on as does Erik - so at very least two in

we need cover for tierney

we need a goalie

we are awash with cash and will be even more so once dembele sold

Bring him home.

I actually think Roberts will stay with us fwiw. Can't see Man City wanting him and he's done nowhere near enough this season for EPL teams to show interest. That leaves him with a choice of us, English Championship clubs and possibly a move abroad.

I don't think we will buy a LB back up. Calvin Miller is the preferred back up there, for better or worse and can't see us convincing someone to come and be second choice in the SPFL behind a 20 year old.

He's also not done enough to justify the fee Man City would demand for him.
