New Footie season - 2018/2019

[struth]

Aribo is apparently signed. Will be paraded in Portugal tomorrow so I'm told.
Hope he is worth the hype.
Squad filling out nicely. Another cb and maybe a striker for me.
Not fussed if Kent comes tbh, and would rather play our own on left.

Qualifiers for Europe looming already lol.

Good stuff, mate. I'm sure that Aribo is quality, in terms of his footballing ability. Much will depend though, on his temperament, as for me that's where these Portuguese boys can fall down, and also how they handle themselves in terms of the Scottish climate, living in Glasgow as a Rangers player, and playing for a club with such a demanding support.

The same of course could be said of any foreign player joining Celtic! So it looks like you'll still have Morelos for another season? Surprised no bids came in for him, or did they and Rangers turned them down? I haven't heard anything about him staying or going...

We've still got some major business to do, and more new faces have been promised before our CL qualifiers, which I'm sure will be the case. I'm happy though with Turnbull, as he will certainly add quality to our squad, and more likely the first team.

If Arsenal want Tierney though, they'll have to do better than £15m!! Doubt he'd want to leave Celtic right now though, as a diehard Celt, and with 9-in a row still to go for.

Aribo is English. Your maybe thinking of the young lad from Benfica(I think) Balde. Still not heard of conformation of him although it was supposedly happening. Apparently very highly thought of but only 16.

Re Teirney, well I guess if a top team come calling he will go. You never know if it's your only chance.
But being a big tic he may just want to stay at home with his boyhood team. Time will tell

Also see that Turnbull is having a second scan on a knee.

Our first home game of the season is against Newcastle so hoping they will still be unsettled by then!

Our second confirmed signing - Josip Drmic. Nope, I don't know much about him. Could be a good signing if his injuries are behind him? https://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/norwic...PpO9xL7ReRS3WM If he can emulate even half of last season's free transfer sensation Teemu Pukki, that would be amazing. Time will tell.

Well, you've got another ex-'Celtic' sensation now, Paddy Roberts! If he's half as good for you guys, as he was for us, you'll be laughing

Good luck anyway, for the coming season. I'll be rooting for Norwich against every team apart from Liverpool or Man Utd!

Cheers Marco! Yes, Roberts is a good loan signing, and unlike the last couple of times we’ve gone up, I’m not too fearful. Remind me of this post in a years time!

Lol yes, I knew there was some Portuguese boy linked with you. So did anyone come in for Morelos?

Tierney's good enough to choose when he wants to leave Celtic, and not be tempted into it at the wrong time, and perhaps to the wrong club. For me, he's got unfinished business with Celtic. I also see him as more of a Man City or Utd player, than an Arsenal one.

Lol - well you've done well out of ex-Celtic connected players... Pukki, Roberts, and the Hooperman! Where's he these days?

Marco.

Looks like there are issues with Turnbull’s medical

[Marco]

Well, if that's the case we don't want a dud...
