Marvin Compper; So good that he exists on an etheric plane far beyond that of Scottish football

He's German and that's a great start. They seem to produced highly effective, strong and technically good defenders with plenty of bottle. He'll do for me.

That and he's also played as left-back so probably decent on the ball,
:ponder: Some of the worst players I've known were left backs.

Doesn't fit the model and at 32 I'm assuming he's a stop-gap, but in BR we trust.
Good point.

Still, given the clubs he's played at I'm assuming (well, hoping) he's comfortable playing it out from the back.

MARVIN COMPPER has arrived in Scotland to complete his £1million move to Celtic.

The Red Bull Leipzig defender touched down at Edinburgh airport from Frankfurt just after midday.

Compper, 32, was met by a Celtic official and whisked away to complete his medical.

The former Germany cap was given the green light to travel after Leipzig chiefs accepted the Hoops’ offer.

He is expected to sign a deal until at least 2020 over the next 24 hours and will begin his Celtic career in January.

Brendan Rodgers is keen to add experience to his defence and Compper looks set to become his first signing of the transfer window.

If nothing else, it's good we're taking steps to deal with a glaring problem. Let's hope we have something else on the go though.

Kolo was a great option for us last year. So I'm happy to have some much needed experience and hopefully we'll get another solid defender in before window close.

Exactly what we need.
Not sure about that. We’ll see. He could well turn out to be good. I’m underwhelmed though and can’t help feeling he’s a replacement for Erik as cover. I still don’t believe we’ve seen much of him and we’re buying him as cover. Having read a good bit about him his strength is that he’s a good leader but he’s very slow apparently. He’s not going to get any quicker at the age of 32.
What a strange post. Are you a .....

An experienced German defender with just under 200 appearances in the Bundesliga. Sounds good.
