Brilliant money for ajer. Last year of contract and he isn't really into defending.
Not sure how he gives it everything when twice he allowed Rangers players a free run and shot from the right.

Also disagree that you need a new keeper.
He's fvckin smashing.

Be interesting to see if the interest in Forster is genuine. Signings so far look promising and Ange seems to be addressing what has been glaringly obvious for a couple of years now.

As far as a striker goes, I hope that he has an eye for a decent one. Depends how much we want to spend too though. A good striker will cost money, even at lower leagues, but potential sell on is good if it works out. I exect we will be looking for 1 or maybe 2 if/when Edouard goes. Can`t rely on Griffiths, who shouldn`t even be there, so probably need 2.

Celtic really are going 'all in' this year. PSV smashed Galatasaray last night so not sure Celtic (if they get past the Midgets) will fare well against them.

Fair play to the Celtic board for the outlay but perhaps too much, too late. Who knows.

With the money for players that have left, I doubt we will have much of a net spend if at all. That`s what Celtic tends to do. In that case, the signings need to be spot on. Time will tell.

As for this season, I still have low expectations. Can`t see how we will progress to CL groups. Goal has to be EL groups in my opinion and if we somehow make the CL, then good.

I can't believe you got what you did for Ajer - seriously.

He is an awful defender albeit half-decent at playing the ball out from the back.

Never seen a defender get caught out or indeed bullied so easily yet you got very good money for him.

Unbelievable Jeff!

more that his commitment was never in question lauders, last year wasn't great for anyone at celtic.

All celtic had to do was sort ourselves out to get past this tie i think, if we are out in the next round then we are at least in europa league groups?

couldn't even prep us for that.

Ajer is a good centre half, it's just that we haven't seen it much due to him having a slob as manager.

Realistically, Europa is both our levels.

i think rangers will get to the groups, you've been impressive in europe the past few years.

the other thread about mcgregor is interesting, if you get to the groups he's going to play a massive role in that, would you have got there with foderingham? i don't think so.

Neil Lennon owes just about every managerial accolade he has to fraser forster.

30m in on those players on reported fees.

How much spent now?

If we get past either Malmo or HJK - you just know that we are getting Slavia Prague.

Would love that TBH.

Guessing no more than half but never sure which sources to believe, might be a good bit lower

Ye olde biscuit tin has been well and truly opened.

Very un-Celtic-esque!

Guessing Angie had stern words.

we want Baldock but Sheff Utd want close to 10m apparently so that won't be happening

According to transfermarkt, just lower than 15m so would presume there is plenty more where that came from especially if Edouard is to be sold.

Next season is looking much closer than it was a few weeks ago

Good to see Celtic getting some bodies in the door.

I am looking forward to this season - Big Angie looks like he will be good value.

And I definitely think we might see a return to the odd 4-4 or 4-3 type OF games. The one thing we love is space to play in. And looking at how Celtic were set up the other night I think we might get a bit more of that this season.

fans forget about the money the club made over the last few years.

tierney our and replaced with taylor and bolingoli

Rodgers netted us about 10 million and we gave it to a slob who couldn't be f...ed with trivial things like "tactics"

the more i think about lennons management the more it annoys me, doesn't give players instructions, leaves it up to them, then blames them when it goes wrong.

an absolute b£llend.

Generally the money “spent” when clubs announce includes signing on fees, agent fees etc., the classic term £10 million deal
Still annoying g to see you get players in though and clearly I hope it’s as successful as last seasons signing debacle
Interesting g few weeks ahead with us who do we sell do we buy anyone else ?
Not at all confident about champions league qualification tbh
----------------------------------------------------------------------

If we play to our capability then we will beat either Malmo or HJK. Hopefully we will have a full house at Ibrox for the return leg.

I think if we get through then the suspended chaps are back in the game?

Pleased with business done so far.

Still 3/4 short, GK, RB, LB and Striker.

Starfelt is a really good signing and the Japanese boy is gawny run a savvy.

i think we need another cb as well mate.

who do we have, welsh, julien, starfelt and a couple of other young players.

i'm honestly fed up hearing things like "he can slot in there if needed" that should be emergency situations but they live aff that schite.

i'm done with bitton after that nonsense the other night.

Aye certainty.
Think we could have been better against them. Can't be too harsh though, we've consistently over performed in Europe under Gerrard.

Furuhashi is the one i'm most intrigued by, he's either going to be a standout star or struggle with the packed defences and thuggish nature of scottish football.

excited to see what happens there, i think he will be a player
