    Nakamura, Boruc, Scott Brown, Caldwell, Scott McDonald, Koki Mizuno, Shaun Maloney, none of these are positive contributions?

    Should we trust you with a TC account!?!?!!?

    I think he's proved we can trust him with the money he's had to spend and bringing home 3 league titles in 3 years.

    Every manager buys duds, to them they look good players in the league they play in, but some just cannot adjust to the Scottish game.

    Gordon Strachan has bought plenty of good players as someone listed above.

    Get over yourself.

    Exactly, every single manager has bought their fair share of duds, some where a lot more expensive failures than any of Strachans signings.

    Most of the players Strachan has bought have contributed something in terms of either important goals/doing a job for us/re-sale value, so even although their Celtic careers would be classed as overall a failure they have still contributed something to the last 3 title wins.

    As mentioned above he has done some great deals as well.

    A bit of balance in the discussion between the positives and negative aspects of Strachans tenure would be nice :rolleyes:

    Even Donati who I think its fair to say is a dud, has made a very good contribution to the cause with his goal vs Shaktar

    Some players just don't work out....Veron, Kleberson, Shevchenko... all top talents when they were purchased...

    We didn't sign du wei long term, he was sent back to China after deciding not to take up the option on him.

    Zurawski's goals in his first season were important to us, not the greatest but not a complete dud

    Gravessen - were you not happy when he signed, I was, but for whatever reason things didn't work out, can't really blame Strachan for that one

    Sno - decent enough player just not suited to our game, made a profit on sell on so still had some worth to us.

    Jarosik - see gravesen above

    Naylor - contributed a lot in his first season, been poor since, starting to improve again, rather we had another left back but not a complete dud.

    JVoH - scored some important goals for us, has contributed greatly, having a bad season with injuries, also Skippy plays better when partnered with JVoH not a dud imo

    Samaras - got off to a flier, hasn't been same since his injury, scored some important goals for us this season.

    Donati - had some good performances but overall poor, his CL goal was worth his weight in gold to us.

    Miller - made substantial profit on sell on, performance wise missed way too many chances for me but was moved on quickly.

    Killen - signed as 4th choice at best but yes dud.

    camara,aladiere,dion dublin,virgo - agree none worked out.

    The debating about good signings v's bad signings has been done to death. If anyone feels they have something new to bring to the subject PM me.
