Skippy's off Celts eye 5

celtic have 6million to spend so i wish mccormick st leadger and kamera

 

wilson is a left back not a winger

 

I agree. But it doesn't always work out great. We ended up with Samaras.

 

Hmnn... has Wilson down as a winger when in fact he's a CB or occasionally a DM. Still, it is the Sun.

 

so is mcdonald away then

 

Not yet.

On the final day of the transfer window, Scott McDonald's proposed move to Middlesbrough appears in doubt.
Boro manager Gordon Strachan would like to sign the Australian striker, who is keen to join his former boss, but the clubs are unable to agree on a fee.



BBC Sport - Football - Middlesbrough and Celtic stall over McDonald talks

 

lol we orginally had sammy on loan

 

No bids for McDonald yet, according to Lawwell. Ball's in Strachan's court.

 

SSN - middlesboro accept bid for adam johnson.....................could see the end of skippy at celtic as its beleived the money from that deal will fund this one

 

Lets hope we get a decent fee. Skippy not fast enough for this pacey looking celtic team

 

Good point a like him but dont see where he's gona fit in anymore tbh, but wat if rasmussen gets injured we need another penalty box striker in reserve cos correct me if am wrong but is kamara not similar to samaras and fortune in that he plays wide and deep at times? celtics main problem this season apart from strachans * defence in my opinion is the lack of a target man in the middle, every team needs 1 n only rasmussen is shaping up for that role

 

Yep skippys going if they sell him.

 

Depends how quick the Johnson deal goes through.

 

if we keep skippy think it ill be gd but does skippy want to stay??

 

From what i hear is that he wants to join wgs

 

celtic dont need 5 strikers i want 1 to leave even if it is skippy

 

The English transferwindow close in a half hour from now.

 

Skippy has already passed his medical at Boro and has been down there since last night , the move depends on the cash Boro get in from Adam Johnson deal which is 9million upfront , Deals for Skippy ,Lee Miller , Charlie Adam all will be done

 

dont care if he goes but could do with all the strikers we can get

 

Bad move if it happens. He is a proven goal scorer in the SPL & CL. We can play beautiful football between the 18-yard boxes, but its all for nothing if we don't win the battles in the 18-yard boxes, and it is in these that Skippy's attributes come to the fore. Really hope he isn't off.

Oh, and btw, he does want to stay. Has been quoted many times, both here in Scotland and whilst on international duty, that he wants to stay. If he is being moved on, I would imagine it is for financial reasons, much in the same way that Fox has come out and said this afternoon.
