That's the trouble with Lawwell's biscuit tin mentality, all very well being financially cautious when you have to be, but to progress, and make big money in the Champions League you need quality players, and these don't come cheap. Take the likes of Man City, how many of their players cost more...

Yes, Brendan Rodgers apparently has come out and said that indeed is the case, Man City wouldn't have sold him for £ 30 million. That said, it appears it was Roberts that argued that he wanted to rejoin Celtic. From what I can ascertain, Man City already have preferable players for Roberts...

I think we will pay dearly for the board's shortsightedness, it just does not make sense, especially when you're trying to compete against major opposition in the CL.

Lol...but grateful to Man City, for selling Cetic, Oliver Ntcham, and loaning us Paddy Roberts. Will be cheering Man City later today when they play Liverpool. Prediction Man City 3 Liverpool 1.

Yes, we'll just have to get on with it. Hope Man City have other gems like Ntcham, and Roberts they can loan, or sell us in the future, that's why I'm cheering them on in the EPD.

I only hope you're right, I would settle for 3rd in the CL, and if we win the treble again that would be fantastic. I've just been on 'Celtic news now', reading about Chris Sutton, and his views about not signing a CB. Like me he's a bit dismayed as to why that did not happen after the Cotezee...

Yes, I agree. I can't see us progressing further in Europe with this squad, bearing in mind the players out injured, and subsequent injuries we're likely to sustain in the next hectic 2, or 3 months schedule. I'm even pessimistic on the domestic front also, the reason being Brendan Rodgers...

From what I heard it was probably Celtic wouldn't have been able to get him insured, also there is a chance the bone fusion in his foot could have worsened. Anyway, don't think there's much chance we'll go back for him. Agree with you about the CB, God help us in Europe, if we're depending on...

The Scottish press (The Scottish Sun), and also Brendan Rodgers says the £ 8 million deal was secured, then Pep Guardiola did a 'U' turn saying he wanted to keep Roberts under his umbrella for another year. According to the report, Celtic are still paying a seven-figure fee to land Roberts...

No, the rumours you heard were correct, we did want to resign him as we're carrying a lot of injuries, and we badly need a decent defender especially with some tough games in the CL coming up.

Thank God we've now got him back at Celtic, many are disappointed up here we didn't get him on a permanent deal. That said, I think City will benefit from this loan deal also, Roberts will get to play in Europe with us, and will feature every week in the domestic scene here (provided he's not...

Hopefully that's about to change, hoping for silverware at least.

Hi OfG Possibly, but Karamoko (or Kaddy, as likes to be called) from what I've heard his family are one of the factors he's decided to stay with Celtic. They seem settled in Scotland, and are enjoying the way of life here (although his brother plays for Grimsby), or so I'm told. Also some...

We are all waiting with bated breath for news of his arrival, even although it's only on a loan deal for a year. Many of us at Celtic park would love him to sign a permanent deal, but realize it's a bit of a pipe dream, as we could never match the wages, or the quality in either the EPL, or...

Yes, I think he's quite a find, hopefully he won't let all the attention he's getting go to his head. Saying that he seems quite happy at Celtic at present (although I believe your club has shown some interest), and I hope within a short while he'll break through into the first team. It's nice...

Thanks for your reply, appreciated. No, I'm with the opposition (Celtic, and Man City), but I hope the lad does well. If he's any good I imagine Rangers will play him against Celtic at Ibrox in 4 weeks time, will give you an update if that happens. Also, been looking at at the Rangers forums...

I'm new to the forum, and not sure where to post this, so here goes. According to the Scottish press, Glasgow Rangers are taking 'superkid' Aaron Nemane on loan from Man City. I don't see anything on the forum regarding this. If true, is he any good ?.
