[Official TC Thread] January Transfer Window 2025 - 3rd Feb 11pm Deadline

Is he not a wrongun?

 

I think in the grand scheme, bringing back Jota and KT is two of the best bits of business we’ve done in years. Maybe ever. Especially within 6 months of each other.

The squad doesn’t look great but the league is basically won, the Scottish Cup has a handful of ties and how much could we really strengthen for Bayern?

I wouldn’t of been comfortable breaking any records again for the Danish lad, can’t be * attempting to spell his name. I think we should move on from it, if it was going to happen it would of happened.

We say this every year but the Summer is the biggest in a long time. Player retention is vital. We can’t lose CCV, Johnston, Kuhn or Maeda. I think we can and will lose Hatate, but the midfield needs a rebuild anyway because the current dynamic isn’t working despite them all being top players.

I’m hoping Idah kicks on, he’s shown great attitude since Kyogo left. His he can cement that position then we just need competition in the Summer. Then we need a right winger to compete with Kuhn, a CM or CDM, a LB depending on Taylor or Schlupp, a CB and even a RB to upgrade on Ralston.

 

No disrespect to the boy schupp, hope he does well but it’s just another Jeremy toljan, Diego laxalt scenario of a guy at a decent club who can’t get a game at his club, “ away to Celtic son for 6 months son “, so * amateurish

 

I don’t mind the Schlupp signing as a stopgap. I’ve seen him play a fair bit and even though technically he’s a bit iffy, he’s versatile and has genuine pace. But clearly we didn’t go into the window with Schlupp as a main target.

With the Kyoto situation, the club has known he wanted to leave for a long time, probably at least back in the summer when he changed agents. We missed out on our number one target to replace him for whatever reason, but it doesn’t seem like there was much if any contingency planning for that scenario.

And what that means is that now it only takes one injury to any one of Idah, Maeda, Kuhn or Jota for us to be looking incredibly light in attacking areas.

 

Selling Kyogo and not bringing in a striker is indefensible. The manager was as clear as day that he wanted another striker and noted that we knew this situation was coming for months. There’s no justification for this negligence. We are one injury away from a disaster.

 

It's inexcusable by the board to not get a proven striker in the door when they knew Kyogo was leaving 3 months ago.

Brendan will be raging and rightly so.

I am too but I'm old enough to not be surprised at Celtic Managers and fans being shafted by the board during transfer windows.

We still have a league to win, a treble to play for and CL games.

Not good enough Celtic...

 

Not even confident we will have a striker in for next seasons CL qualifier. Pathetic

 

Couldnt dream of Jota and Tierney back before this window. Pretty good window but irratating selling Kyogo mid season.

Not saying he wpuld have been good for us or thay they would have sold to us at that price.

But with how short we are in ST, I'd have take Duk at £600k just so we had the options for ST.

I think it's dangerous having Maeda be our versatile option for LW and ST with the hope we don't pick up injuries because if we do, our attacking options are incredibly light

 

Can people please shut up about KT, he has no relevance to the rest of this season, ffs the club haven't even announced its a done deal for the summer yet.

We've been shafted again, instead of getting a lb and striker in now to bed them in and get them settled in time for european qualifiers we're now going to be relying on new signings hitting the ground running and thats assuming we even get any, the board might not actually buy anyone unless we qualify first.

Add to that the potential possibility of big bids coming for AJ, CCV, Hatate and Kuhn and were looking at a total * rebuild.

The board are a * joke

 

One of the worst windows we’ve had since loan gate in Rodgers last stint as manger.

Time and time again our board seem to top themselves by royalty * over a decent manager by not getting the tools they need.

Absolutely no future planning in place regarding replacing our main forward who has gotten us important goals and more importantly having two forwards who can get goals instead leaving us with one untested forward at the club and another youngster who is leaving.

1 injury away from disaster, but we’ve come out of another window with a profit, we have a large chuck of cash in the bank and if Bronby wanted 14 million * pay the money, it was there.

But once again we have * around, we will have to play qualifiers again on the back foot.

don’t be surprised if we end up selling more assets in the summer with these * snakes on the board.

We will get the same excuses from them it will depend on champions league qualification and we will be scrambling again near to the end of the window to get players in.

No * can defend the board, it’s a * shambles. Rotten to the core.

 

Bringing in expensive ageing epl players is a tactic used by huns to stop fans complaining and it never worked

 

The striker debacle is a phenomenal case of mismanagement, even for us.

Just happy to be better than a team that’s won 1 title in 14 year in front of no *, who’ve happened to score 6 goals against us in the last two games we’ve played them as it happens.

The managers’ ambition will never be met by this club.

Just pay yer £50 for the Bayern game and shut the * up. Same old story.

 

Can't wait for the "it's incredibly difficult month to get players, no one want to lose their top players in January"

UNLESS YOUR CELTIC!!!

 

A lot has been said yesterday and previously in approach to the deadline.


Simply put anyone who says they are happy with that window and doesn't have any issues - you're deluding yourself.

No one is saying Jota is bad, heck even Schlupp may surprise us.

But that's not remotely good enough when you consider what we needed to do going in to the window and that we are actively weaker than when we entered it.

Simply, not good enough.

They 3 will more than likely still be here. We aren’t signing two centre halfs on top of them.

 

Very surprised we didn’t bring in a striker on loan

 

Yep that one is extremely strange. Maybe Rodgers being * off and trying to make a point.

 

Does this ever surprise anyone anymore ?

Wouldn't say it's an utter disaster but it's still dissappointing. I still don't even know what position Schlupp will fit in ? Or will he just be fired in anywhere we have an injury ?

Biggest worry is the first leg against Bayern. Idah picks up a knock and Kenny leads the line in the biggest game of the season. He might take his chance but it's a massive risk.
