The amount of people writing Hendry off after a half season - played mostly out of position - is astounding. Rodgers obviously sees something in him or he wouldn't have been brought in, give him time. |

You say “half a season” like it’s five minutes at the end of a friendly match. We’ve seen more than enough of him in a Celtic shirt so far to at least form an opinion. My opinion is that he’s nowhere near the standard required. If the manager feels differently, fair enough. Let’s hope he’s right and we’re all wrong. |

Ye cant chuck Ralston and Hendry based on what we have seen so far. They need time to prove themselves most of our starting eleven never exactly burst out the traps in their Celtic careers take Rogic and Brown for example |

Rogic always had great ability - fitness was his issue, and to mention Brown in the same breath as Ralston and Hendry is madness. I've saw enough of both of them to make my mind up. You can put Calvin Miller in that bracket too. |

Many would have said the same about McGregor. There is plenty of room for improvement in all these players and we should loan them out to get good game time (as we did with McGregor and Ajer). Not saying they'll all make it but we shouldn't be writing them off with the comparatively little that we've seen from them. |

I think Hendry and Ralston need time to develop. Lustig is shot though and needs punting, as does Gamboa |

The mentioning of Brown wasnt to say they can reach his level more that you dont need to start well to become a good player for us. I just feel they are too young to chuck both could go on to do nothing for us but give them some time |

We paid 4.4m for Brown and he was already an established SPL midfielder and had not looked out of place against players like Lennon, Sutton etc. You also need to consider what Brown went through personally not long after he joined us. Totally different scenario to players like Hendry and Ralston. We can't afford to have youngsters cutting their teeth in our defence unless they are exceptional like KT. They may improve, but the signs are ominous. Edited by Kingslim, 20 Jun 2018, 03:29 PM.

we have two right backs at the world cup, both first choice for their national sides that are 18/19 places higher in the world rankings than Scotland we don't "need" a right back, fine if there are some available that are better than ours, but at "our lvl" in club football, not many teams have better right backs than us |

I think that one of Gamboa's problems (might be a million others) is that he is to attack minded, you can't have both full backs going forward like Tierney, you need to have balance in the team, which Lustig offers |

International rankings are useless. The manager doesn't rate Gamboa, and he's right. Lustig, God love him, moves with the pliability of a player seven years his senior. One or any of the current lot might be able to do a job as back up but for me it's the No 1 area to strengthen. |
