    Get in a controller at DM and allow brown to push a little further forward. Rodgers loves his energy.
    We could maybe get another ST if we sell Cifcti.
    If we beat Hapoel, I expect an exciting deadline day

    Defensive mid that can put in a right shift in place of mcgregor!

    As for a play maker Roberts behind the front 2 and we have the most attacking celtic side there has ever been, him in a central role would rip teams to shreds!

    Seeing as he's only 18 and is therefore still growing, I wonder if Ajer could be groomed into a box to box powerhouse player. Would need to bulk up a bit, at his frame is a bit gangly at the moment.

    He has good technique, and great physical potential. Get him strong and a bit more aggressive...

    LOVE Lustig, great servant to the club.
    But yes. Cant last 90 minutes it seems, still rate him highly, but Janko will never be in the same league as Lustig when it comes to reading of the game or reliability. Even passion. Lustig LOVES the Sellick.

    Striker. If the thumb got injured it's hard to see where the goals will come from

    We need a quality central defender to Marshall the back 4 and stop the crazy 5minutes in every game when we look so vulnerable .

    A DM that will allow BR to play his favoured 3 man back line and a middle 5.

    So you expect Ciftci to replace Griffiths. We will already get goals from Roberts, Rogic etc unless you expect them to move up to centre forward to replace the thumbs goals.

    I can't see us going for another striker, we've got Griffiths and Dembele so are we really going to go out and get someone equally as good who'd be happy to play third choice assuming Ciftci goes? Also would that really be worth spending money on? Will probably be a technically competent DM

    If we want to switch to 2 up front and the thumb is injured or suspended then that leaves us Ciftci and Dembele without an option to substitute.

    Is Ciftci good enough for Celtic?

    Don't think Ciftci is good enough,think Sinclair would do well through the middle tbh if needed.

    We need a creative player in the middle of the park, I would say we still need a big Vic type of player and I would say he needs another really good centre half.

    Now this is not going to happen but a creative player for the champions league is a must and if we get into the groups then sign the others we need more quality for this season because we don't want to * up the league whike we are in Europe.

    Interesting no one is saying CB.
    Think we should let Ambrose and maybe Boyata go.
    Then it just depends how good Suminovic is, if he's not good enough to challenge toure we should buy a new one.

    Sviatchenko
    Toure
    Sumimovic/New CB
    O'Connell
    Lustig (cover if needed)
