    If Enrique goes then yes please, saw the old firm game in April and he was comfortably the best player there, very similar style to Enrique 2.

    He is very much like Jose,he is a class act. However in the last month of the season some of his performances were very poor. This could be down to the fact he has had one eye on moving to a bigger club. If Jose left I would be more than happy with him.

    Been impressed with him. Very attacking. His defiencies are more in the defensive third. Definetly inferior to Enrique in that regard. However probably better than Jose going forward, and his distribution (Jose's only real weakness) is better. I'm a bit old fashioned I like them to be a defender first so I'd always rate Jose higher. But wouldn't be disappointed if he was the replacement.

    I would prefer Enrique to stay but if he left adn he was his replacement it wouldn't be that bad.

    Agree with this.

    He's a decent modern full back with his ability to get forward and provide more attacking options. He can definitely beat a player too. My only worry is his defensive abilities - might be a bit light weight for the EPL. I dont think he'll be as good as Jose in that respect.

    Celtic will probably try to throw Forster into the equation too...

    I am probably the only Celtic fan you will ever hear say this but I think he is over-rated and it will be caught out a higher level. This crossing is very suspect and he hasn't been tested very hard defensively. He can do a few memorable tricks and he gets the fans on their feet but it's the final ball which is quite often lacking. If somebody was to offer us a silly amount such as £8-10m I'd accept it.

    The one player in our team who I think will go on to play at the very top level is Biram Kayal and luckily Izaguirre seems to be distracting all the attention away from him.

    This. We could do better though. The quality of the SPL is questionably Championship standard at best(some teams even L1 standard). <ok>

    seems similar to jose, hasnt proven himself at a high level but looks good at celtic, he would certainly only be cover at sjp and he knows this so im not sure if that would appeal to him. jose is better and younger i think.

    Agree. He had a great game in the only Scottish match anyone cares about, and so has been linked with big moves around the continent.

    I tell you who I would take from Celtic if we hadn't signed Cabaye. That Korean lad Ki. every time I watched him he looked quality. Seemed to have that in built Korean work ethic but with a bit more flair and panache. Didn't seem to shirk a tackle either, which is something in Scotland! Proper old school.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ki_Sung-Yueng Yeah he's a very talented player. Apparently the ''Korean Gerrard''. So is he the complete package in midfield Mick?

    Sanchino - I don't know why this has tickled me so much but I'm pissing myself at that link to Wiki you posted. "He went by his English name David while in Austrailia" Hilarious. What is Ji Sung Park's English name? I'm going to call him Billy.

    I've got a Chinese friend whose name translates as 'The Frog' - Lik Hnang Hui - We call him Nicky, usually in a low, elongated voice.

    NIKKEEEEEEEEEEEEE, like that. :)
