    He's only going to be a better player now than when he left 5 years ago. Christ.

    'Form is temporary. Class is permanent' and all that bollocks.

    He would be a quality player for us. AGAIN.

    Get him in Ron.

    He can, but he doesn't do it often enough. I think someone mentioned yesterday he's not suited to the modern "pass and move" game, especially the way we play. He'd probably be our most talented player but that doesn't mean much if he doesn't produce it. Would much rather stick with guys like Commons, Armstrong, GMS and Johansen.

    But he's a different player from at least both Armstrong and Johanson. And thats four players, plus Forrest, to cover three positions for a whole season, which will hopefully include the CL.

    McGeady nowadays anyway is better at the unglamorous stuff than the fancy *. He is a hard working winger with a good engine. I reckon he would give Deila a hard on

    Wasn't Sunderland meant have bid in from him.
    he stay in epl and Sunderland not far from Glasgow so he can return home easier than from Everton.
    I don't see him taking massive pay cut til come to celtic.
    can't see Pete offering him anymore than 25k a week.
    I say he on 40k easy at everton

    Would think your right. I would imagine he would have to be willing to take a hefty pay cut to come to Celtic. Would love it if it happened though.

    Itll be a bit of nostalgia, thats for sure. Brown and McGeady, at least, playing together again. Shame we can't have Boruc too

    Don't know if it's been mentioned but he has pulled out of the Singapore trip with Everton due to 'injury'...

    McGeady and GMS on each flank would be brilliant. Bet GMS could learn a thing or two as well, so would like to see McGeady back at the club. If he has a good engine, I'm sure he will fit into the system. Players with a natural talent like McGeady have no problems adjusting theire game, unless the ego is in the way.

    Can't understand why so many folk want him back!?!? He was massively overrated IMO and only had one really good season. But throughout his time with is he was completely devoid of any kind of final ball / cross / end product - something totally essential given his position in the team!!!!

    It's a no for me. Don't think he's all that good these days. Lost a lot of his pace and trickery which made him such an effective player with us.

    Here's hoping that he comes back home. PL always said publicly that he's welcome back.
