Not convinced. Got his dream move to Celtic but the Celtic fans think he is beyond awful. Was a very good player for Wigan and Everton but sounds like he’s way off it now. But then Huddersfield fans thought Pritchard was ****e
 
I'm on the fence. But its just nice we've got back to the point where some of our fans are turning their noses up at a player who played 7 Europa League games last season and 15 Premier League games the year before that.

Instead of being linked with Declan John etc :D

Looks like we wouldn’t pay the money for a injury risked played
We could not get him on loan
However if we wanted him the deal should of been sorted weeks ago
Once we loaned simms the broached deal became more difficult
We now move on
 
Yes. but so had Corry Evans and he's been playing more or less constantly.

I'm not excited either. But it could be a brilliant signing if he's able to get anywhere near his best.

Bear in mind Celtic gave him a 4-year contract only a year ago,. So unless he's majorly broken down in the last year, Celtic had confidence in his ability to play at that level for another 3 years from now.

And he played 15 games for them last season including 7 in the Europa League. And the season before that played 16 Premier League games. So its not like he's been sitting doing nothing for 2 years.
I've just checked. He's played 30 league games once in the last 6 seasons. He broke his leg a few years back and is now over 30.

I'm not doubting his quality but that was years ago when he was at Everton. Obviously if it happens I'll back the lad and hope it works out, I've just got reservations about it.

I trust our current recruitment...there's no doubt they've done the business.
I'm like you...would prefer to see an update on Cory rather than what appears to be a like for like replacement. However, I'm in the backing Alex camp.....if he's happy with it...so am I.

That he’s be a top signing. My mate who’s a Celtic fan says he’s a clever player but off the pace. I think we need a quicker version of Evans not a slower one.

I've no idea how good he is or what his game strengths are. I would trust Alex Neil would be bringing him in for the right reasons.

Glad all the Broadhead ****e is finally put to bed. Move in now. I guess Wigan is closer to his house.

I think Simms will end up the better signing.

Everytime NB
I hope Dajaku is able to step up.

Good shout marra. I'm led to believe he's a real wild card going forward.....they like him,he's likely to feature in upcoming matches......talented boy.
 
That’s a good signing…

Mendes is a twat and Peter Lim and Meriton are destroying Valencia like. No way should they be selling their joint best player to Wolves for 13m euros less than they paid for him.

Very good player.

Mcgeady speaks highly of McCarthy at 47 mins in when discussing a potential transfer here.
Also earlier on in the video he briefly mentions that he wasn't keen on the sporting director etc here.
Another thing of note, despite Derek Ferguson being largely ****e for us he can't speak highly enough of the club.
 
McCarthy would be direct competition/cover for Evans. An experienced head to play that role with the young players around him. Only worry for me is Celtic manager rates him highly but there fans say he can't play the high tempo game he wants.
We don't need or want competition, the order should be bringing in BETTER than what we already have to slot straight into the side.
