SuperSAINT Posted 7 November, 2019 Posted 7 November, 2019 Man of the Match: https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/celtic-player-ratings-fraser-forster-20835904 Well, they will both get noticed a hell of a lot more by scouts winning in Lazio than they would losing an U23's match.
danjosaint Posted 7 November, 2019 Posted 7 November, 2019 If i remember we were linked with Julien when at toulouse
doddisalegend Posted 7 November, 2019 Posted 7 November, 2019 according to the article :- "Southampton loanee Mohamed Elyounoussi epitomised the high-pressing style of play that many fans want to see, pressuring ex-Liverpool ace Lucas in midfield."
niceandfriendly Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 Elyounoussi was world class against Lazio last night. World class. That was one of the best attacking performances I've ever seen in 35 years of watching football. And I previously hated him. He's clearly our best player on that evidence.

tajjuk Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 Good to see them both doing well, maybe we can do a swap deal for some of Celtic's up and coming players, like Edouard, Ajer, Julien, Greg Taylor
SuperSAINT Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 Good to see them both doing well, maybe we can do a swap deal for some of Celtic's up and coming players, like Edouard, Ajer, Julien, Greg Taylor The problem is, Celtic won’t be able to get near FF or Moi’s wages to sign them permanently.
VectisSaint Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 The problem is, Celtic won’t be able to get near FF or Moi’s wages to sign them permanently. Not sure, but anyway if they were sensible they'd there for reduced wages, if it would restart their careers. That's what sensible people would do.
doddisalegend Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 The problem is, Celtic won’t be able to get near FF or Moi’s wages to sign them permanently.Surely they'd take a pay cut to be an important part of team that's wins most weeks, gets European football and where they clearly are enjoying playing again?

East Kent Saint Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 FF has already been in newspaper story saying he is willing to take a pay cut !!
Dellman Posted 8 November, 2019 Posted 8 November, 2019 Players used to come to us to improve, and they did. Now they deteriorate and have to leave us to improve...Mo, Frazer. Tadic, just this season. What has gone wrong?

Heisenberg Posted 23 February, 2020 Posted 23 February, 2020 After a positive start now can’t seem to get in the Celtic starting 11 got on for last 15 today and contributed a few stray passes suspect he’ll be back with us this summer sadly
SuperSAINT Posted 23 February, 2020 Posted 23 February, 2020 After a positive start now can’t seem to get in the Celtic starting 11 got on for last 15 today and contributed a few stray passes suspect he’ll be back with us this summer sadly He was outstanding for them in a 4-2-3-1 formation before getting injured for a couple of months. I think Celtic then changed to wing-backs to get back on track & now he’s back fit, he doesn’t really suit the formation.

Ted Bates Statue Posted 30 June, 2020 Posted 30 June, 2020 Not even halfway through his five year contract with us. It'll be a few more years of this.
Nolan Posted 30 June, 2020 Posted 30 June, 2020 Bet we're paying a high proportion of his wages to assist the Forster deal going through. With Ntcham and cash coming the other way.
Suhari Posted 30 June, 2020 Posted 30 June, 2020 7 minutes ago, Nolan said: Bet we're paying a high proportion of his wages to assist the Forster deal going through. With Ntcham and cash coming the other way. Makes sense. Otherwise it seems very early in the summer to be agreeing a loan for next season: would've thought we'd be trying hard to sell.
stevy777_x Posted 30 June, 2020 Posted 30 June, 2020 Don t understand whywe haven t waiting for permanent offers to come in. Seems a very hasty decision From our perspective

Lord Duckhunter Posted 30 June, 2020 Posted 30 June, 2020 What happened to making their lives miserable until they fuck off. Training with the nippers, ignoring them & generally messing them about. Nowadays, players we don’t want get shipped out to another club and stay on the same wages. I’d give him the choice, sign permanently or spend the rest of your contract running round the pitch & playing in the stiffs.

Trouble is do you want him training with the nippers slowly becoming like a bottle of milk left out on the side with the lid off stinking the place out? That said when he turned up he freely admitted that his contract with us sets him up for life, so cruising round with the nippers would probably suit him very nicely.

He has a choice, sign for what Celtic think you’re worth or pick up your wages with us , but don’t play for X number of years. His choice. Id imagine most players will take the move. Far better than paying them to play for someone else.
UpweySaint Posted 1 July, 2020 Posted 1 July, 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53242351 BBC have confirmed done deal. Does seem strange to not have even tried to sell permanently, can only hope we are getting something out of the deal.
Mr Saints Posted 1 July, 2020 Posted 1 July, 2020 He is so bad, relieved he won't be playing for us for at least another year. Shame it's not permanent though.

Or the third option, the one which he is doing, which is to take the contracted wage we’ve given him but go on loan somewhere else so he still gets to play football. The fault lies squarely with Saints and our old recruitment team, who I can only assume signed him off the back of a five minute YouTube video of his performance against Man City in the Europa.

The point is that would not be our preference. We are offering him the third option, as we are choosing to not be tough with him to force him to move. How we arrived at this point with him is a separate issue. We would have preferred to sell, but if we are getting a decent loan fee and a good percentage of his wages paid, the chance for him to do well in Scotland next season, might create some competition for him next summer. otherwise a sale now might see us take only a very small fee, possibly not much bigger than the loan fee, and take a big hit in the accounts on amortisation.
M271 Posted 7 September, 2020 Posted 7 September, 2020 Great goal from Mo for Norway against Northern Ireland tonight and generally playing well. Norway 3 - 1 up at half time.

S-Clarke Posted 7 September, 2020 Posted 7 September, 2020 How bloody good is Haaland by the way? Unreal technique, great strength, great height, great pace. If you're looking for the attributes of a perfect centre forward, he has every single one at like 10/10. He's going to be insane if he stays injury free.

He'd better keep away from Roy Keane-esque players then unlike his dad. He was born in England, while he was probably always destined to play for Norway, it's a shame we couldn't get him to play for us. He would have provided us with even better attacking options than we already have and could have challenged the undroppable Kane for focal point of the attack.

Played well, although Northern Irelands team was pretty much made up of players from the middle of the championship, which is probably his level from what i've seen of him.
SuperSAINT Posted 24 September, 2020 Posted 24 September, 2020 Moi came off the bench & scored the last minute winner for Celtic away to Riga tonight.
SuperSAINT Posted 29 October, 2020 Posted 29 October, 2020 Scored twice tonight vs Lille. Decent hit!

If you're looking for the attributes of a perfect centre forward, he has every single one at like 10/10. He's going to be insane if he stays injury free. He's already pretty insane, he's only just turned 20 and has nearly 100 senior goals in like 140 games. Including now 6 in 7 for Norway and 15 in 15 in European games. If he improves he is going to be Messi/Ronaldo levels of goalscoring records. His off the ball movement is what impresses me much, so intelligent at timing runs and finding space in the box that it often means the finish is pretty simple. Really hope he doesn't end up at Utd. --------------------------- Good to see Elyounoussi doing well, two nice goals. I know its only Celtic but hes doing well in Europe as well, should at least raise his value if we want to sell him end of the season.

He seems to struggle when they play different systems. Coming off the left side is his best.

Which is ironically where we’re struggling. There’s a player in there, just not sure he’s suited to the pace of the PL or would be fit enough to keep up with Ralph’s demands. Celtic probably about his level in all honesty.

verlaine1979 Posted 29 October, 2020 Posted 29 October, 2020 Still looks painfully slow running with the ball. First goal was a superficially nice finish, but the keeper was stranded and he had literally no defender to beat carrying the ball forward. Essentially invited to bend it into an empty net from 20 yards.
igsey Posted 30 October, 2020 Posted 30 October, 2020 He's a strange one, he didn't even come back for pre-season, just had his loan extended immediately so Ralph hasn't even had a chance to look at him.
the saint in winchester Posted 30 October, 2020 Posted 30 October, 2020 Ely is going to divide the fanbase forevermore. Those who see what he's doing and think "hey, come and do that for us" and those that disregard what he does and say he's not suited to the EPL and "it's only park football in Scotland." To those I say he is doing it in the Europa League. Anyway, Ralph isn't going to give him a chance, so we'll watch him from afar.
