    See a few more links today for Forster to Barcelona. Now that may be pushing it, but I think it fairly likely he will be for the off to the highest bidder in the summer (or maybe even January if he thinks a move can get him a world cup place)

    But regardless - i'd like to see the club show some ambition or at the very least foresight - to get someone in January who can then take over as number one in the summer. If we wait til Forster goes we'll then be throwing someone in at the deep end of crucial CL qualifiers. Get someone in January and they can get to know the club and teammates coaches and the manager

    It annoyed me in the summer with the whole Hooper situation that we hadnt signed someone like Pukki or Balde then when we all knew he would be off in the summer

    I mean Lennon tells us they both need time to develop. Well better they have that time behind the scenes when the need is not so great for them to hit the ground running.

    I hope they learn from the mistakes of before!

    PS i also saw a random link for Samaras to Barcelona also. Now might be balls - but he would be free and probably be content to be mainly a sub. So not that impossible a scenario. As out of contract in the summer he can discuss a pre-contract with any club not maybe Barca in less than 3 months - get him signed up ASAP!!!

    Difficult with getting top earners signed longer. We have a wage structure in place and if we aren't upping there wages they have little incentive to sign them earlier.

    None of the two of them are away to barcelona. Barca have stuck by valdes for years so don't see that changing, plus they like to promote from within.

    As for samaras to barca you must be having a laugh.

    As Rebs said both barca keepers are leaving in the summer. So theyll be buying someone. Whether that is Forster I dunno.

    And I think youll find I said neither will go to barca, doesnt mean they wont leave though. Which is the important part as far as celtic are concerned
