But there are hundreds better than him out there within our budget..... Just don't ask me to name them, there are scouts at the club for that!

I don't think I've said that there are always better & affordable players for every position, and before you know it we'll have Messi & Ronaldo playing up front for us. Just that Boyata is a bit of a weak link and we could do with an upgrade on him. Does anyone who watches Celtic look at Boyata and say "yeah, he's solid in the air and he has his obvious faults, but he's as good as we can get". Does anyone here genuinely feel that way? And imagine passing me off as some Excel obsessed weirdo like HB. You utter bastard

I thought he would never be a player. I was wrong. Central defenders get better with age also. |

Indeed, I stopped playing Football Manager years ago so I'm going to leave the club that have hired these 'professionals' to find these players for themselves

Fair question for a scout on £100k a year who spends every working day identifying and reviewing targets. Stupid question for a random punter on a message board saying we need a better centre half. Especially when followed up with 'we don't have the budget..'. "If you can't name anyone better then there's nobody better!!!!!!!!!!! haha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I think he was mostly great when he came back in last season and as much as I trust Brendan , when the big man brings the ball out from keeper , it gives me the fear , especially CL level |

BR has said time and time again that big D is our first and main CB in the team. Even if we brought in "better" defenders they would be playing with Boyata |

He has and I don't profess to know a fraction of what Rodger's knows but that scares me. |

Boyata is still two weeks away. He won't just throw him in against PSG. |

If we don't throw him in against PSG we are effed as it seems we have no CB magically appearing in the next 2 hours |

He's improved hugely under Brendan. We've missed him since he's been injured. |

Scouts were earning £250k plus over a decade ago in the PL. Not sure why you're giving it " " at the thought of our chief scout earning £2k per week here.I also never claimed you said what the rest of my post was about, but you did say it was a fair question to ask when it quite obviously is not for the reasons I've already pointed out multiple times. |

I don't think he's going to risk losing him for the full CL campaign to make one game v PSG. It was a knee injury and he's not played a competitive game this season. I don't think the manager rolls that way or would take that sort of risk with a player. |

Aye and he was rank rotten, disappeared again for a few weeks and was a different player. |
