    Fav Celtic Player:
    Hard to choose ... different players for different era's
    Fav Celtic Song:
    Grace
    Forster, Mathews, Wanyama, Brown, Commons

    No Hooper !

    My thinking is that the team when playing well create plenty of chances,,, and i think any decent player could slot into our team and fill other positions. I think Mathews is very under rated... need Brown in his captain role, Wanyama... nuff said, Commons on form can make things happen... Big Fraser... absolute mainstay of team

    wee forrest ........ if he would stop looking for fouls then he would be in my top 5

    Sami .... too inconsistent

    Syokesy/Hooper ....... if you can't score for the Tic in SPL then you probably wont score anywhere...

    Mulgrew ...... just missed out to Commons but probably more consistent. Has made some defensive mistakes this season.

    Kelvin and Lustig ........ some of the defeats this year mean that they are not in contention.

    Forster, Wanyama, Hooper, Mulgrew, and purely for Europe I would have Samaras.

    Stokes, Commons and Kayal would be up there too when they are consistently starting

    Would have to be King of Kings, Henrik Larsson.
    Fav Celtic Song:
    I'm not picky.
    Forster, Mulgrew, Wanyama, Ledley and Hooper

    Struggled to pick either Ledley or Brown to be honest and I think I picked Ledley over Brown mainly because of Broony's injury (which although doesn't seem too bad right now).

    YNWA & Fields
    Forster - Has saved our collective arses many a time

    Hooper - Goal machine with good link up play

    Wanyama - Bosses the midfield, improves every game

    Brown - The glue that holds the squad together, El Capitán himself

    Mulgrew - Deadly crosses and set-pieces abound from his magic wand

    Swap out Mulgrew for Matthews and you get my vote.
    Forster, Hooper, Wanyama and Matthews all have the best combination of actually being able to contribute game in, game out and being valuable assets that we'll likely turn a profit on. Brown contributes game in, game out, is an outstanding leader and will hopefully be here the rest of his career.

    Beats me how anyone could leave Hooper out of their top 5
