. But he could develop to be as important as us if he fulfils his potential. Losing Rogic would be a blow, and we'd be poorer for it, but it's a bigger risk paying big money for someone to replace him without knowing if they'll actually be good enough than to give a chance to a home grown talent who could develop well. Hopefully it doesn't come to pass and Rogic decides his future is with us, but we'd be daft not to be considering what to do should he goes, and I have no doubt the first option would be giving a chance to people at the club already
I'll disagree to nearly all of that, other than we should keep Tom.

Christie can't now get a game for a very very poor Aberdeen. Rodgers has also had a look at Christie and twice farmed him out.

I'd be far more surprised if Christie gets a game for Celtic next year, never mind replaces our most skilful player.
Edit- The signings of Musonda, Hayes, Morgan and attempts at Roberts again will put him further down the pecking order. If in fact he can get any lower on it.



Who was the guy we signed from Ipswich again ?

and , err , where is he ?
Benyu.

On loan at Oldham til the end of the season. Made 4 starts, subbed in 3 of them.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Not really

Di Canio
Lubo
Naka
Rogic

None of them were big money signings and those are probably the 4 most gifted players we’ve had in the last 30years.
I get your point but the 3 players you mentioned weren’t around in the time of the basket case that is European football transfers that we have now (caused by that carrot sky and English football).
We still plucked them from obscurity.

Di Canio wasn’t getting a game at Milan
Rogic was at Central Coast Mariners
Lubo - can’t remember who we signed him from - was it a French or Czech mob? St Ettiene or one of the Prague teams? :ponder:
Naka - Reggina

Again all clubs within our spending frame.

Even the players we’ve moved on for big bucks came from provincial clubs.

Obviously, it’s more difficult in the current market, but there’s still good players within our reach as we’ve proven time and time again, over the years.

Moravcik was from Duisburg. Not sure if he was just there on loan, though, as it was a quick turnaround.

He is right footed and predominantly plays on the left. A fair amount of the goals scored or chanced attempted I've seen from him tend to be him cutting in and getting shots away with his right foot.

Remains to be seen if there is more to his game. If he has I'd say he's now in the right place to develop that.

I always like this kind of signing. It's good for the game overall and is exactly the type of punt we should be taking.

Joking, of course. Looking forward to see how he gets on.

Morgan - two-footed

Going by this, he can use both his right and his left.

I have to say, I thought he was left-footed when I saw him play - but I've only watched highlights of a couple of St Mirren games (and then only to see what the kid is capable of) so I'm about as much an authority on this as I am on quantum mechanics or Chinese literature.

What are your thoughts on the double slit experiment?

McGregor is ahead of Sinclair now, so Morgan will have a fight to get a game instead of Callam.

Ken what you are saying but with more than seventy games a season and the subsequent injuries and loss of form that inevitably brings we have to keep an open mind. Some folks wanted just two strikers on board season just gone in example, I never believed Brendan thought that despite his intimation. I think we need four goalscoring forwards on board moving ahead.

The squad rules these days, an injury here or there and we are goosed in Europe, we need a stronger pool than we have been seeing.

I think Morgan will be a good squad player. Will get several games but I don’t see him being first choice.
