    Until Sunday he has had a pretty poor running, he showed some superior quality prior to his injury then appeared to lack that urgency needed resulting in failure.

    I saw a bit of him when he was at Bristol Rovers on loan from Newcastle United, he arrived in Bristol with talk of him being 'the next big thing' and I thought he was okay , but nothing special.
    But * do I know, I think he has been outstanding for Celtic and I think he will play for England.

    I want him to stay more than I do wanyama and that's saying something. He's one of the main reasons we did so well in the champions league and if we qualify this season, we all know he thrives on bif games and will get that call up to rio. Just before I jumped on here I was actually so desperate that I was in the middle of making a Fraser Foster (messi's wosrst nightmare) England Call Up Campaign and my phone cut off before I could complete it. I'm smashed oot ma nut on this fine Arizona medical weed at the moment so I can't be arsed starting it again. BUT I think we as fans need to do something to catch the english puplics eyes and show them how class he is. Mayeb if it gets a lot of hits on a fb page, we call the media get a wee story in there. You know they always have space fur wee collums like that.

    As I said, I'm smashed oot ma nut right now so I might just be freaking out that were gonnae loose him but I think as fans we need to show him more appreciation, get twitter, facebook, everything absolutley buzzing with his youtube videos n * like that.

    He desperatley wants to play for england and if an english team comes calling he's outta here. Only thing that could change that is us as fans. We need to get him the recognition he deserves. Right anyway, back to smoking this joint

    Out of Hooper, Wanyama and Forster big Victor is the only one I think we might have a chance of keeping. I can see the other two possibly leaving this summer to try and get into the English national side on a regular basis and play in the "biggest league in the world".

    I hope we can keep ahold of all 3, could be crucial in us qualifying for the champions league or not. However I have major doubts, especially over Forster funnily enough. Even if he gets into the England squad playing for a team like Fulham for example he will probably never start ahead of Joe Hart(unless he is injured or seriously, seriously out of form). He then has to deal with the competition of Butland and Foster. It's saddening to think he would give up the chance to win trophies, play in europe and be idolised here simply to increase his chance of being part of the national squad with no guarantee of even playing. Fair enough though I won't hold a grudge if the big man does go.
    Another good champions league campaign here and he could well be on the plane to Brazil though...

    i get the feeling hes off from a few things, maybe i red into it to much, but in the video after the game on the bus he had his shirt and was getting all the players to sign it as if it could have been his last game, and today he also said he will do anything and all it takes to get on the plane to brazil,

    More than possible.

    I'd be gutted too if I'd produced a great season at the highest level in European competition, then over-looked for lesser players just because of where I play my club football.

    Celtic Underground are saying he's rumoured to have said he wants to go & Hooper is close to agreeing a stay.

    no idea if Celtic Underground is ever true though.

    I would be happy if Celtic got about £5 million for him.

    Having said that, I think getting a good 'keeper, who could perform well in the Champions League, to replace him would be difficult.

    I get the feeling he'll be off :54: he's one of the few english players that genuinely wants to play for the national team unfortunately.

    His heroics against Barcelona mean nothing in that regard. He needs to prove himself on a rainy night in Stoke.

    I've a feeling he'll be away too, I've honestly no clue who we bring in though. Hard to find a very good keeper for cheap these days.

    There's a certain keeper currently playing for Southampton that I hear is not too bad...

    We've dealt with it before and bounced back.

    I'm quietly confident of keeping at least one of them though, I don't really know why though.

    I honestly don't get this almost obsession he appears to have about getting in the England squad.

    I can understand that most people would want to play for their country and would be proud to do so, but some reports are suggesting that's he ready to go to any old team in the EPL just to get in the squad. Even if he does move down south he would only be considered as a first choice if he was in a top four side.

    He's already said that he has no interest in moving to a club in the Premier Leauge where he would be sitting on a bench, so why he would he want to do it for his country?

    If they won't include him in the sqaud just because he plays in the SPL then he should look at it as their loss and not his.

    England are * anyway. They always underachieve and I doubt Forster will get a game infront of Harte. Roy Hodgson seems to love Harte.
