    I agree with Alan Stubbs guy made me want to become a defender. I also think big Joos is a great shout was the best defender in Scotland for quite a while, saw some people said jackie McNamara does anyone remember the season O'neil played McNamara cm and he seemed to be the one who was playing further forward in the central midfield 3?!?(excluding the 2 wide players)Chipped in with a few goals and thought he was excellent that season!

    John Hartson is one of my all time favourites.Amazing bloke and great player for the club. Massive Celtic man now aswell; got a tattoo on his shoulder.
    Think I was probably drawn to him a little more after he got his illness but for a reason that I can't really explain i'd take a bullet for the guy.

    Roy Aitken and Danny McGrain. Two legends and McGrain was the best right back in the world for a few years.

    Love Danny McGrain.

    Obviously never seen him play but have seen the footage of him, and have met him on numerous occasions. He's got a real aura about him, and he's an absolute gentleman.

    Especially love the fact that the huns bigoted signing policy benefited us on this one.

    * bless Daniel Fergus McGrain! :celt_2:

    My obvious favourite is the same as most, Henrik Larsson.

    There's quite a few other obvious ones. Non-obvious, I'll go with Nakamura. He had his faults but provided in the big pressure moments and I just loved him as a player.

    The hairs stand up watching this one:

    agreed definetly underated & made a scapegoat by a lot of fans near the end of his celtic career was lightning fast fastest player ive ever seen although i preffered him out the wing than full back

    Surprised that no one has mentioned Brian McClair. At the time "Le Petite Merde" grabbed most of the headlines but Choccy was, in my opinon a far superior and intelligent player. His later career proves my point.

    have u seen a handsome hun
    if paul mcstay hadnt been at the club during our barren spell i'd have taken up snooker....the maestro carried that squad for a number of seasons and was a special special talent in some very average celtic sides
