    I would at this point. Not everything should be done with the aim of "cheap as possible!" with Celtic anymore. I want a quality player, in form, who has been featuring regularly for his side. An out-of-contract player in January who has played * all over the last year shouldn't be our goal right now, especially since our only arrival in this window is a guy who only made 3 sub appearances so far all season- and is now out injured for a month.

    There is something not right i dont care what anyone says, as i have said most of this month there is no fair reason (we know of) not to make a few quality signings this month, if its between a £18m hotel or £18m worth of talent on the pitch i know what i want and its not some hotel!

    The hotel and museum should only be surely built on the back of money that isn't taken away from other aspects of the club.

    Other wise why the * was it not done 6 years ago.

    Plenty time in the window and I doubt we won't sign anyone.
    Im just getting to the point that I know it's another "almost" transfer window.
    We wont get what we really need in. And as always we will hope something or someone turns good for us.

    Definitely, building the hotel shouldn't come at the detriment of our transfer/wage budget. If it's not financially viable to do it without impacting the team then it should be shelved until it's possible. If we haven't learned our lessons from not building from a position of strength then there will be huge questions to be asked.

    I wonder if the planning and building of the hotel has much effect on our transfer budget. Surely, this is the kind of thing that will have been planned over a number of years, therefore the board have already made projections for it.

    Aye said this earlier, club just can't release him without paying him off. Just because they can't afford him any longer..

    Yeah im very confident the building of the hotel and what not will not affect our transfer budget, it will have been drawn up and saved for over the past few years now. I dont think Rodgers would of been too keen on taking over either had he been told his budget would be less because we had to build a hotel.

    Not a chance on loan to Norwich for the rest of the season, maybe in summer.

    Suggested him a while back in player suggestions. He has been fantastic anytime I have seen Norwich this season.

    He is highly rated at City from what I have heard. But don’t know if he will get a chance anytime soon with Ederson and Bravo there.

    Some of his performances bring back memories of Forster against Barca, making saves that he has no right to but does.

    No doubt it is * but it’s he’s the kind of keeper that we should be looking at signing.

    He'd be a terrific signing.
