    Im having an argument with a m8 can someone tell me what postion Larsson played the first season he joined, was he a central striker or a winger?

    How many goals did he score that season?

    Always a central striker but prepared to run anywhere up front.

    But was he not a winger before joining Celtic, and I thought this may have been the role he was bought for Celtic.

    I think your right, the first few games he was not an out and out striker but he quickly became one. I think he started just behind the front two but not for long.

    Any idea of goals jonnbhoy? Im sure at first he was percived as a dodgy buy, not just on the basis of his mistake on his debut but on the season as a whole.

    Threads primarily on Larsson is no longer Celtic Chat, they are other football.

    He played as a striker. Firstly alongside Donnelly, then Brattbakk after we signed him. I think he scored 19 in his first season.
