Reo Hatate

Praying the wee man’s back for the weekend

 

Ange said he was close to making it at the weekend.


We will just need to wait and see

 

Doesn’t mean much as he usually just feeds the media * when it comes to things like this. But let’s hope he hasn’t this time.

 

Not in todays training video. He's out for Saturday

 

That was Tuesday that video was done mate. Doesn't look good though I agree

 

He’s probably training on his own



Obviously another update tomorrow during the managers PC

 

Agree it doesn’t look good for Hatate being involved.

Be interesting to see what Ange does, play with Iwata and McGregor almost giving Mooy a free role to an extent, or stay more as we are with O’Riley coming in but then having a slow midfield.

 

I'd have no problem with that at all. As long as we have the intelligence of Mooy in there we'll be grand.

 

Mind celtic socials is run by laith and the guy who was Kevin Murray on twitter a known wind up merchant they could be creative with the video there is a few leg shots only and 1 of them looks like reo build about 2 mins in!

 

Aye this

 

Am I missing something here? That's clearly Iwata drinking water and Kyogo by the right post

 

Folks looking into to much here


When Reo is probably in the gym

 

Nah that's kyogo mate to the right it's another part of it

 

Thought it was Neil Lennon to be honest

 

Rather John Lennon or even Danny

 

Reo Lennon

 

Doesn't sound like he's going to make the game going by McGregors comments.

Hopefully wee bit of mind games

 

Reo Hatate still has a chance of facing Rangers on Saturday, according to Celtic captain Callum McGregor.

The Japanese star was a big miss from the Hoops midfield as they played Ross County last weekend and has been one of their stories of the season, playing his way into contention for the player of the year awards at the end of the season. Ange Postecoglou said last week that he hoped to have the 25-year-old back for the derby


The captain has now explained that Hatateremains "touch and go." McGregor admits that this fixture is one that can often see players ploughing on through the pain barrier and letting adrenaline get them through - but insists they have the squad to cope if Hatate doesn't make it.




Maybe," he said when asked about his teammate's chances. "He’s been touch and go all week.

“The fixture is a bit different and sometimes you can get through the pain barrier if you can. But if there’s an issue you don’t want to be taking crazy risks, as there’s a good bit of the season to go as well. You have to find the balance.

“You get the adrenaline in these big games of consequence. You feel on top of the world and it’s only after the game you start to think ‘oh that’s sore’.

 

If he is touch and go from being able to start no reason he can’t be on the bench and if we need him use him if not he doesn’t get on.
