I understand your logic but I've never been a fan of stockpiling players based on a What If scenario. That's part of the reason you have an academy, to have back ups.

Youths will never get a chance at Celtic if we don't throw them in on the odd occasion and keep bringing in loanees to stand in their way.

Injuries are usually the way young players break in and show their worth.

 

I think shortly, he’ll be first choice next to CCV.

Dane Murray has been clearly named off BR as CCV’s stand in. And he’s been good to his word on that so far.

He trusts Scales and Trusty as well to a lesser extent than Scales.

Man City have high hopes for this boy, Pep absolutely made sure we have no option the end of the season. He wouldn’t be here if they thought he can’t be playing, and with no option and other players already in the position then I don’t think we would want him in if not to make an impact on the first team.

It’s a lazy comparison but think Denayer. I think first game after International break, you’ll see him start.

 

Don’t see it mate. City rate him highly but I just don’t think he’ll have it just yet. He’ll be a few seasons time then it’ll click at another team I think.

Denayer is a lazy comparison, he’s a lot more like that quansah in play style bud.

also the few first team appearances he got coincided with city being absolutely atrocious. So not sure that helped his confidence as he got absolutely slated down there for it.

not sure what his temperament or personality is like, it’s very possible he would have expected to walk into the team if he has any of the usual EPL ego.

I wouldn’t read too much into the no option to buy at the end of the loan either. City do it loads with their better youngsters now. Just so they can sell them for huge fees when they eventually do well during the loans compared to what they potentially would have had to settle the price at beforehand with relatively no experience

Looks a unit right enough.

 

i dont know does a new season of football sneak up on some * ,that they dont do pre season work and be fit and ready no matter where they might be playing

 

Pretty sure someone said the same yesterday.

 

Even worse, turns out it was @Liam Scales just a few posts above.

 

Aye cmon Brendan, give us a swatch of the Pusey

 

With Trusty out it will be interesting to see does Rodgers opt for him or Murray off the bench tonight when Scales is shuttled over to LB. If its Murray I think this lad could be another Nat Phillips and back to the EPL in January.

 

I think Murray will be CCVs cover, Trusty will be Scales cover. Comparing Trusty to Phillips is horse * anyway, Trusty is far superior to him.

 

Think he was refering to JSP going back to Man City in Jan to be fair not Trusty

 

I'm comparing JSP to Philips. I think his loan could be short lived.

 

Right I see, sorry, makes more sense, it really is an odd signing. I don't really like signing players like that without an option or to cover injuries. Phillips was at least in to cover injuries, also had some experience, so it had a purpose. It actually annoys me that we are trying to help clubs like Man City develop their youth when we give no chance to our own.

I don't think it makes sense for City either, he's not getting games. He'd be better off sent to the Championship where I bet he would.
