    As much as i like Crosas, would be nice to have him back but.... Hes similar to Ki in playing style and imo Ki is better.

    I'd love him back. I'd help fund somehow to bring him back. He never got a proper chance and it's * because I think he would've turned out a star. Coming up through the youth system at barca one of the first things your taught is how to pass to perfection. In the little time we did see him I used to count how many he messed up and at most it was only 3 out of a lot. Would love to see him back and I think we might!

    I think part of the reason people are keen to see him back has a lot to do with his love for the club rather than us having a need for him in the squad.

    Really do love Marc, a true bhoy! Saying that, there is no way he would start for us at present IMO.
    Hope to see him in the Hoops once again some day though! :50:

    Crosas was pretty * for Celtic. Anyone saying otherwise is lying and it's probably due to the fact he came from Barcelona.

    He was a good tidy players but....

    Kayal, Ledley, Ki, Brown, Wanyama, Commons, Forrest, Maloney, McCourt... where would he fit in about 8th choice midfielder :97:

    Never got a chance here would love him back as he loves the club and is a fantastic player .But we have to face facts we have much better and stronger players in Ledley.Ki.Kayal and then the untested Vic.

    I'd put him on before wanyama, Maloney or McCourt if he was still here tbh.

    He learned his trade at Barca, after a few years away from celtic playing in russia or indeed anywere else he will vastly improve as a player and if he comes back he could be a great player :icon_mrgreen:

    I say he might be a bit of a Mascherano, Try him in CB and see how he does :56:

    Personally liked Crosas as a player. One of the best passers of the ball in the SPL at the time.

    He'd struggle to get into Lennons team, but as said, give him a few years elsewhere and then I reckon if he still wanted to come back we'd have a great wee player on our hands

    Someone care to share with us doubters just exactly why he should come back and what he done for Celtic?

    Those saying he didn't get a chance, he did. He proved he was more than good enough to play for Celtic and that the fact he was 'lightweight' was a myth.

    However, Scott Brown got half fit again and was thrown right back in. Despite still having problematic ankles, despite the manager saying he was only operating at a percentage of his capability and despite the fact where Crosas could stick the ball on a 5 pence piece Brown was hoofing it into touch at every opportunity.

    Think if he came back he would still be the best passer in the team, only problem being the style of football just doesnt suit him
