I dont want to see any overhauls, or buying players for the sake of buying players. But our defence has been for years now, an area we just dont appear to want to strengthen, Our Midfield is stacked with talent, and were constantly linked with midfielders.. We have 2 great forwards in Dembele and Eduoard and another great striker in Griff, with other attacking options given the depth we have, But defensively? we lack and thats my point. How did the loan to buy work out for Roberts? Fans loved him, great young talent, But out of our price range.. And anyone we likely get from any major clubs in Europe will cost us, just like Eddy did. I just want to see us highlight problem areas and address it, instead of seeing reports of links with midfielders, strikers well out of our price range and scouting guys well never get.. Doesnt make sense to me.

RIP Chic. Another good result. MTH!

Gaffers starting to piss me off.. I love Brendan, but the lack of Transfer Movement is worrying. Defence has been a clear issue for years now and we never seem to address it. Were short at the back as it is, and the players we got arent going to cut it in Europe so why are we stalling? All im ever seeing is us being linked to midfielders or attackers. at prices were never paying. We have the ability to do a decent job in Europe and ensure domestic dominance by simply shoring up our defence. We got to a UEFA cup final with a team that had a good mix, and we were strong in all areas.. So why do we keep continuing to ignore our defensive duties? Ill never understand it.

Best pair of Hightops i ever owned were Reeboks I3s (Iverson Signature)

Simonovic to Fenerbache Boyata to LYon Recent shite circulating the press today. I dont mind if Joso goes, And id prefer to tie up Boyata then punt him so we can make money, but we seriously need investment in our Def. Rodgers needs to get the finger oot, We dont need any more midfielders or Strikers. We need a solid CH and a RWB

Yea, Kawhi doesnt want the money, but hel ldef test the FA and guess itll be where his heads at, he still seems dead cert on heading home to LA be it with Clips or the Lakers.. But every team in that league will be looking at him no doubt. Toronto def got better end of this deal though. I dont know know anything about Poeltl but hes young so maybe we can work with him. My biggest concern is the fact we lost our 2 best defensive players and replacing them wont be easy, in fact Kawhi cant be replaced,. We can build with DeRozan though, i think hell get better in SA, he wont be so heavily relied on like he was in Toronto and i think with less pressure on him hell be more confident. I agree with the Pick though, but it wouldnt surprise me if itsused as part of a future trade package, depends what position we end up though we COULD end up with a decent pick. Again, we need to look at Free Agency, we unload a huge chunk of Cap room end of next year and will be able to chase an elite player, and again, best we can get RE a 2 way superstar is Jimmy Butler.

good result lads. MTH

all the best to him. Glad he was picked up quickly

So its official.. Kawhi and Danny Green to Toronto for DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl and a 2019 1st Round Pick. Personally, dont like it, But Kawhi didnt want to be in SA so good riddance to him, Him and Green on wings is a good move for Toronto though, excellent defensive duo. Dunno what Poeltl will bring to the squad, but clearing Kawhi and Greens Salary hopefully puts us in a position where we can pursue an elite Free Agent next summer. Still praying for Butler.

Its pretty much all we need to do at this point, We have a great pool of young talent and we dont use it. Just pick a full team of young guys and let them get playing together regularly and by next world cup they will be more experienced and better chemistry and puts us in a far better position going forward. Problem with Scotland across the board is the fact that we dont promote the youth structure as much as we could, it needs to change.

On a more recent note. Despite being outplayed for almost the entire match. Celtic beating of Barcelona when Watt scored the winning goal could be seen as significant. given the quality of that Barca side at the time as they were arguably the best team in the world

Pantera and GOJIRA

if Lonzo is involved in any trade for Kawhi it brtter be 3 teams involved. lol

ahh ok. shouod be a good one then.

Celtic are a huge club and have a trophy in their own right. Globally were a big team. but yes financially were far from it. Which is why these reports of us looking at players around 18Mil are stupid.

Didnt think Slayer were coming bck to the UK for a tour. Did they not do a farewell tour last year? Ps anybody hears anything about Gojira coming here let us know

Well he has a point, He also states that Celtic also need to step it up, But if Scotlands ranking is to ever increase, its going to take all the other qualifying teams to step up.. Its not a slight on the teams its just a statement based on fact. Truth is, ALL Scottish clubs have performed poorly in Europe over the years.

Id prefer him out East, West is stacked as is. I dont mind DeRozan either, hes nowhere near Kawhis quality but hed do well for us, i think hed probably develop better in SA than Toronto too. Be interesting to see what happens because Kawhi been so quiet all we have to go on is media reports based on "unknown league sources". We still have the Supermax to offer. I dunno, I say we keep him for his final year, let him test FA and we pick up Jimmy butler who will also be a FA. Also, No guarantee Lakers are making any finals, LeBron hasnt been tested in the West his entire career, he has to be sure his surrounded pieces can help him and he has to navigate his way through far tougher series en route. Time will tell though

If Scotland finally realise thay we have a great pool of young talent in our ranks and start playing them and letting them develop and play together consistently i firmly believe well have a good young side more than capable of qualifying for a major tournament. Time we dropped the likes of Mulgrew and them. they dont have the legs to keep up anymore.

As a San Antonio Spurs fan, i as pretty gutted we didnt even get the chance to have a sit down with LeBron/Popovich.. Especially with all this shit going on with Kawhi Leonard. As long as Kawhi doesnt go to LA im good, send him out east to Philly or Boston or the Raps. OR offer him the supermax and try keep him. Got the feeling that wont happen though, at best, he stays for another year and leaves as a FA. In which case we pick up Jimmy Butler as a replacement.

Thats true. Depends on whether the guys solely care about money or not, Building a team requires a team mentality not individuals and egos. Id like to think the guys would welcome it, its not like they are earning nothing. But you do make a valid point, And i really cant see it happening so i always take these kind of rumours with a pinch of salt.

Suggests Everyone goes and listens to TECH N9NE

Mon the Hoose!
