Mate, you really need to take on a broader range of perspectives and outlooks than what a few anonymous ‘ITK’ on this website might be leading you to think. All that “why bother?” chat is disproportional and overly downbeat. Things can change very quickly in football, including for the better...
Ultimately there’s nothing more he can win at Celtic. Whereas he has the chance now - and maybe now only - to prove himself in the biggest league in the world.
How about Kane signs a new 4-year deal, inclusive of a 12-month initial loan to Real Madrid (for a hefty, hefty fee)? Real get a top-notch Benzema replacement for a year; Kane almost certainly wins a trophy and then returns to Spurs to chase down the Shearer record over 2024-27; we get a chunk...
I would have had Poch, Nagelsmann & Slot as better options. But clearly none of those were runners ultimately, so I’m happy to give 100% support to Ange now. He plays football the way it should be played, he’s hugely charismatic and the Celtic fans love him.
100% support includes staying the...
I’d be ok with a smaller squad if we make smart signings only:
Rebuild XI
———————Raya
Emerson—Romero—Laporte—Udogie
——-—Bissouma—Bentancur
Kulusevski—Maddison--Richarlison
———————Kane
Reserve
——————Forster
Spence—Dier—Lenglet—Davies
—————Sarr—Skipp
——Porro——Lo Celso——Gil
———————Son
Plus...
I always had respect for Levy’s business acumen. And I could understand why he made decisions like the hiring of Jose or Conte, or letting Poch go. Tough calls, but defensible.
I am at a loss as to how he’s let us become such a laughing stock of late. Even if we lay the hiring of Nuno and the...
I’ve always stood by Levy, the club has come a long way in the last 20 years, but this is another complete embarrassment after the 10 week+ search that gave us Nuno in 2021… I can’t believe he’s allowed this to happen again.
My old man’s logic is that we’re better off losing pre-season games as it flushes out the problems early. I’ve felt the same about our recent games. Better that everyone’s well-sighted on the many problems we have to address.
Pfft, the fee is fuck all… half a Jack Clarke! Any commentator saying that’s a problem is kidding themselves.
I’m more worried about Paratici - the guy who recommended Nuno & Gattuso and seems to not like possession-based football - still having Levy’s ear on this appointment.
It defies belief that we would be offering Dier a new 3-year-contract, unless we have our new DoF and Head Coach lined up and both are - inexplicably - in agreement. Definitely not a decision Levy should be making in absence of that input.
I knew Nuno was toast, and had to be, after only 10 games so it’d be hypocritical of me to say anything longer in theory. I would stomach a full season where we finished mid-table though if a new manager was undergoing a significant rebuild and was transitioning us to a possession-based game...
Slot my preferred option now. But I’d even take Potter or Rodgers - who have both created really good teams in the Prem over lengthy periods - ahead of Ryan.
