when we lose o'riley its not his role we need to replace.

we need to push mcgregor up and get a cdm.

need a wanyama in there in this system, mcgregor is both wasted and quite frankly poor at the job he's currently being asked to do.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreed. Been saying on here for an eternity that we need an actual DM, not an AM shoehorned into the role. Even more important given we only have ONE decent defender behind them.

I'd also argue that in 15 years Forrest has never been first choice winger
----------------------------------------------------------------------
yeah but then again you suggested that Cortez isnt better than Scott Wright, Matondo or Mcausland. not the best of starts tbh.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok provide evidence that he is

Over to you
----------------------------------------------------------------------
evidence !! you tell me what quantifies a player being better then I will see if I can deliver that .

like I said if your watching Cortez and watching the others mentioned and you think Cortez isnt better tells us pretty much all we need to know.

Is this you saying that you think the other three are better than him?!

Whilst today Calmac can do a job in AM I also think he forgets to lose the safe shackles of the DM role and we don't get the defence splitting passes we'd like out of him.

That and at 30 he's going the wrong way for the energy needed in that role. Not saying he doesn't have it now but it doesn't get any easier.

I'd prefer we brought in better AMs.

I think he would bring the balance that one of the cm's needs to offer.

there was a point against dundee where i thought he was doing too much pointing and not getting into space to receive the ball.

2 seconds later he got it, turned and played a nice pass to the edge of the box and i just thought "wheres that been?"


he plays with his back to goal as a cdm and never seems to do a 180 when he collects the ball, 90 degrees at best. which is fine if you are neil lennon and can tackle and break up play as well, but i don't think those are attributes we can claim he is great at.

he's wasted in there, he's better than he is showing and i put that down to him being used badly.

he replaced his weetabix with his crackpipe this morning i think.

Was it this guy that claimed that M Stewart is a fair and non biased pundit?

JF has never been an out and out shoe in like Jota, or Sinclair and unfortunately, that is the standard we should aspire to.

he went through a 4/5 year period was averaging well over 25 league starts and over 50 appearances a season.

looking at his stats he was 1st choice under Lennon , Rodgers

Off topic, but just clocked this in today’s Beeb footie gossip (albeit from a highly questionable source):

“Celtic will need to pay £5m to land on-loan Norwich City forward Adam Idah on a longer-term arrangement. (Sun)”

No chance we’re paying that for a bench warmer, and nor should we even be thinking about it for the big lump. Same applies to Bernardo, if the reputed £6m buyout is accurate … just naw.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

does spending 11 million on idah and bernardo improve us?

nope. i dont think it does.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course it doesn't. In the case of Bernardo it is just another lazy Celtic 'that worked before so let's try that again'

Both decent players BTW and maybe once the owning clubs get the horse's head from Lawwell they will cave?

We could instantly improve our recruitment going forward if we just binned the Asian market now … end of. Ange had specialist knowledge in that market and his initial foray worked a charm with Kyogo, Hatate and Maeda. Since then it’s been utterly woeful.

According to reports MacArthur FC winger Raphael Borges Rodrigues, 20, is a reported target for Rangers.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

What I mean is that Forrest has never been first choice winger

He has always been an option but I don't think he has ever been the "must start" winger.

Old age affecting you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Really?

He was poty and linked with Liverpool at one point.

Yeah I’m feeling well old

all it seems to be is were scouting him. I know nothing of him at all.

Im confident we will be signing Sima and Cortez during the summer.

its absolute nonesense , he was clearly first choice under spells with Lennon and Rodgers playing over 50 games a season for both during different spells

could be worse, could be his hands that are injured.

imagine rangers were only allowed one goalkeeper.
