we need an understudy for Scott Brown in this season. Oor man needs to be rested, not used in all games yet his stand in needs to play the same role and have the same attitude as Brooonie, he will have to acept that he is being prepared for greatness, and learn to play the Broonie way. I we could afford Kante or a Kante playalike then that would be perfect. Lets not loose sight of the role, a ball holding midfielder who breaks up play, can pass out of defence and can move upfield when needed.
In return our new man will be top notch, cost a bit and young enough to wait a couple of seasons to secure first pick.
Can't think what we would do if Broonie was out for a couple of months with injury,
Eboue, play him or sell him, Brown shouldn't be playing as much as he is, the final will be his 100th game for Celtic in 2 seasons plus 6 for Scotland.

2016/17 (Appearances/Goals/Assists):
Dembele - 49/32/9
Sinclair - 50/25/11
Griffiths - 38/18/15
Armstrong - 47/17/7
Rogic - 37/12/6
Roberts - 47/11/19
Forrest - 46/8/13

2017/18 (Appearances/Goals/Assists):
Dembele - 38/16/8
Sinclair - 54/18/17
Griffiths - 39/13/8
Armstrong - 40/5/6
Rogic - 40/8/9
Roberts - 18/1/5
Forrest - 57/17/10

Team needs goalscorers. If Dembele, Armstrong and Roberts are all away, and possibly also Sinclair and Rogic, then that would be all but two of our 7 top scorers in 2016/17. Losing so many of those goals this season has caused us to draw so many games where, last season, at least one of those players would have scored the winner. This has been a far bigger issue than our defence has, and I think this is where work is most urgently needed. We need attackers and midfielders who can each find 15+ goals a season.

Not a very well edited video :nono:

Looks fast and skilful :)



EDIT: Looks similar in style to Sinclair and plays on RW
Replacement for Roberts and/or Musonda I would think.
For £1m? Would like to see us linked to someone who'll undoubtedly improve the first team, rather than a project. I'm assuming he's some sort of project at that price?

celtic have rubbished the links to adzic apparently

@CelticFC
🗣️ BR: “I won’t expect wholesale changes but you have sometimes react to what can happen. There are no plans to lose anyone but at this point in time, it’s a case of looking to build. There won’t be drastic changes but what is clear is we want to bring in quality."

BR on @patrick7roberts: “We are going to lose young Pat, who will go back to Man City. He’s had a fantastic two-and-a-half years and he’s been unfortunate this season with injury and whatnot. We will lose some players naturally but we have to keep improving the squad.”

Or at the end of a contract which he's being paid buttons.

The Newcastle Chronicle has us after Mbemba from Newcastle, 23 year old CB. I think we've been linked with him before.

I know this has been posted somewhere, but I can't find it right now...so, is there anywhere I can see the status of the current squad in terms of contracts ending?

It'd be useful in terms of seeing who has a year to go and who we need to prioritise for renewal.

BR's comment about "I won’t expect wholesale changes" is both worrying and reassuring; great, if it means Rogic and Armstrong sign longer deals and Eddie becomes a permanent squad member. Worrying though, if it means we are fairly happy with the overall squad, particulalrly in defense...

Disagree with Rodgers saying there will be no drastic changes, for me we will loose 5/6 players, they players then need replaced then we have the small issue of sorting a full new defence with exception of Tierney imo. Before looking at forward areas where we need freshened up. I've said previously in this thread this is going to be the biggest transfer window in recent years and we need to act accordingly for a change.

i think Rodgers will have a better idea of the current expected squad changes than we do.
