    No question this is so vital to help new players settle in. We all want them to do well on the pitch so handling these kind of off the field issues professionally is vital also IMHO.

    Big fan of his. As I keep saying.

    Hope we can keep him but I have a feeling we may struggle.

    Obviously Valle is No.1 pick now in Brendan's judgement, and Valle thoroughly deserves it on his perfomances, and that is no reflection on Taylor who has been a great servant to the club.

    Just think we have had to suffer Laxalt, Boli and Bernabei to get to this final position. The job will be now, can we persuade Valle to stay with Celtic, come the end of the season.

    Would love to get him permanently but with how quickly he’s improved in the last month alone I doubt we’ll be able to. Cracking player and only 20 year old.

    Nah he will go back to Barca and ready to fit right in. They're becoming a fantastic team all over again

    Saw the difference with him for the 5th goal.

    Opening his body, taking ball on back foot n bursting down the line. If that's Taylor it's kicked straight back were it came from

    And if Barca don’t want to play him yet there will be clubs lining up.

    Really like him, always looking to get forward and take his man on rather than take the easy option all the time.

    Just about ready to put him ahead of Taylor now, every game he keeps going up another wee notch. GT will still get his game time but young Valle is forcing himself to the front of the queue. Big talent.

    Taylor has a great attitude, and is a decent honest player, but Valle looks to have that bit more class.

    His technical ability shines through, you can tell where he's been schooled..

    He won't make it at Barca, I don't think, so we have a chance but if he keeps playing like he is, it's the catch22 when you have no buy option..

    Convinced he has something, admittedly it took me an while. Unfortunately we won’t see him develop here.
