First Jedi 0 Posted July 23, 2008 [quote user="bass is best"]1 more loan, the rest has to be perms!!!![/quote]Nope - 4 more loans...! Total of 8 loans at any one time but 5 in a squad - I think!Within any group of 6 players, say, one isn''t going to make the team (injury, tactics, form, resting, internationals, suspension) - so there is a good chance we''ll have 6 or more loanees. I think we did last year - confusing as it was for many people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that Roeder knows that with the squad that we started with it would be hard to buy all the players needed, in fact it would be pretty much impossible. But he is using the loan system to cover all the areas of pitch, and with quality. I think he is also using the loan system alot so that he has more money to buy permanent quality. I think he is going to use the money to buy some strikers, like Ameobi or Mifsud. This is because if they do well for the club, they could sell them off for a profit. I know it sounds bad but it is sensible management. If we were to sign a young and permanent centre-back, and they had a very good season, like Shittu has, then his value is around £2 million. If we signed either Mifsud or Ameobi, and they scored around 20 goals a season, we could make a hefty profit on him. Like what Cardiff got for Chopra. I''m getting really optimistic about the signings that Roeder has made and I think we are going to have a good season, at least top half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shack Attack 0 Posted July 23, 2008 So he''s been at Celtic for nine years and has only made 28 appearances? I''m not saying that definately means he''s rubbish or anything but it''s a slight concern. Injury prone or just not good enough to play on a regular basis?

Evil Monkey 52 Posted July 23, 2008 He''s also only 24, so for a good number of those 9 years he''d have beenyouth... then the reported injury which was inflicted on him by anotherplayer. Could be good cover... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxxx 0 Posted July 23, 2008 Why can we not just get some permanent signings too many loans and it just feels like a borrowed team, 4 should be the maximum, Still far from convinced we have much of a transfer kitty to spend . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theoneandonlycullum 0 Posted July 23, 2008 I asked my celtic pal if he was any good, this is what he said: "Yeah he is. That was his international debut and it was a shocker kept him out for 3 years then he got back in to the team and was carried off in a Champs League game v Shaktar last year.A footballing centre half but he likes a tackle. Think Malky MacKay with brains.Shame about the injury. It’s not like he has dodgy hamstrings or anything just some mad b*stard went after him for no reason."
