It'll take getting pumpt oot the CL qualifiers, sadly. Squeezing as much as we can out of this squad and it's really starting to show. |

We need 3/4 good signings and a few of our own players to be more consistent. |

We've been good at winning crunch games this season but absolutely abject bordering shampooe in most of the other games. As another poster pointed out in the match thread, half of these guys are only turning up when they want to. Hope the supporters don't get stuffed in the transfer window again because the CL qualifiers give me the fear. Let's not do a Peter Lawwell special of gambling the group stage money by trying to get there on a shoestring again. Edited by macfleeto, 13 May 2018, 03:55 PM.

Probably more of a shift than what Lawwell will have

Don't think so, when we've spent money it's generally been a success : Ntcham, Edouard, Sinclair etc It's the £1m bracket where we struggle :Compper, Hendy, Gamboa etc Need 3x £5m players which is easily doable for us & much needed. |

We never need to spend big really, just be effing smart with who we get. Who was the last big money signing we made that proved their worth consistently over a whole contract? |

It might already be too late to make any meaningful signings before the qualifiers. Hopefully Brendan's record in big games will see us right. Squad needs freshening though without a doubt. |

Ntcham aside, who's looked worth every penny, we've not made a big money signing since Tony Blair was in office. |

If we want to progress we really do need to spend big, transfer fee's have gone mental, we could be losing some big players and we already needed improvements in a few positions. |

Well John Hartson was our last big money signing so we have no one to judge that on in the last 17 years. |

No way will we be able to spend that type of money. 15m in fees before we’ve negotiated a contract? Dreaming |

And that’s on top of signing Edouard, for whatever the agreed fee is. Three players of the quality you’d expect for ~£5m would make all the difference we need. They’d bring the other good players in the squad up to the level that they can and should be playing at. |

We don't need to spend huge amounts if our scouts are doing their job right, they should be hunting down young players who are going places like wanyama, virgil, hooper, moussa etc, players that will come in and do their thing for 2 seasons and move on for big transfer fees or players who have lost their way a bit who would jump at the chance to play for Celtic and kick start their career. we might be sitting with a good few quid in the bank but the CL is going to be tougher to get into so money from that cannot be counted on, we can't blow what we have on a few players and leave ourselves short. |

Don't tell Peter Lawwell it is easily doable or he'll end up in hospital |
