Kieran Tierney

Genuinely think people are gonna be surprised how much better he is than when he left.

This is a ridiculous signing for us. Literally only possible because of his links to us and also rejecting a lot more pretentious leagues and money to come back.

Clearly the way he snuck out the back door on his exit has stayed with him, time to make amends as our next captain and 6/7 high level years

 

Each to their own but that's not my take on his exit, he was always going to a better stage, just lets celebrate the fact that he is coming home, and like you say, should be our captain in a few seasons.

 

I would love to see BR shake up his formation a bit in pre season, by going 3 at the back, with KT left side, would be agreat to have such a good ball playing center half and with the likes of Maeda jota and Khud able to play the wing back roles, should make for a really dynamic set up, especially against SPL dross. New striker and Idah up top.

 

Having watched Taylor for years I can't believe there are some people actually questioning the return of one the best left backs ever to play for us.

As for his decision to go to Arsenal, I'd like to see any man on here decline that payrise...

If we keep our current players it will be the best back five we've had in a long long long time...

 

Everytime I see this bumped I prepare myself to see he’s out till after the window. Nailed on for last game of the season, when he comes on for five minutes.


The news we’re talking for a deal for Schlupp who’s keen to stay permanently, and Tierney on a bosman. That’s perfect for me, Schlupp is already a massive upgrade. KT is world class, if he stayed fit after his first season at Arsenal (when he was linked to * Real Madrid) he’d be first choice at one of the very elite teams.

He’s such an upgrade, even with injuries and his love for us, getting him in is a major coup. Having Schlupp there as well, next seasons back up is twice the player of the first choice we went into this year with.

And that’s something that can keep Tierney fit, Schlupp coming in to rest him and manage his games/fitness is not quite seamless because the level that Tierney is but it’s a level of quality to bring in instead that’s very high for a back up at Celtic.

With KT being first choice, I’m only expecting at best he can play half the games a season. And that’s enough.
