Kasper Dolberg

Look I appreciate that and I don't have a problem with these signings as I've mentioned countless times before.

I just don't rate Dolberg as highly as some people do, I view his career to date and his stats in a different prism to other posters and I'm not convinced he's a certainty to "rip it up" here as some posters feel will be the case. So with this in mind I feel we are getting our pants pulled down on the fee but that's on the board as they left business this late to do.

Is there anything unreasonable being said in the above? I don't think so and I'm utterly perplexed at how such a balanced viewpoint can get people so hot under the collar.

 

My worry is this is taking up a lot of time we could be using getting in in boys for other positions...like an actual RW ffs

 

I'm curious who in your opinion would be a good fit for us up top thats within our budget?

 

TBH if we win a treble and go a run in Europa and fires us to the cl next year then that’s a return on investment

He's on record to rate Johnny Kenny.

 

Personally I'd be looking at 2 more wingers before a striker. I'd be happy with Maeda as our no 1 striker. I prefer him to the wing as he is of limited use out wide against a low block as his game revolves of getting in behind. His final ball is sketchy and he doesn't come inside and commit players.

 

Johnninho Kennumbunca

 

Another eejit taking his time to misframe me.

I said that it's very premature to write Johnny Kenny off as rubbish after 266 minutes of competitive actions where he has scored 2 goals.

 

How exactly I'm I misframing you ?

 

Would you ever just shut the * up regarding kenny, idah or whoever else.

You are literally clogging up most posts just now, if youve no info on whether hes signing or not just leave it.

 

Maeda isn’t a striker. He’s proven that by missing 1v1’s v Rangers and two v Almaty.

Also how is a winger playing against a low block any different from a striker if they both like getting in behind.

We need a striker. Dolberg is probably the best we can realistically get. In fact before this, I wouldn’t of had us having a chance.

 

Listen fucknuts.

I didn't mention Kenny here, some other * did so take it up with them.

 

Because he's a winger who doesn't take players on. He just runs in behind. Playing centrally he has the ability to press in more dangerous areas and get across the box and finish things.

His scuffed crosses every week are an indication he's not a winger either. The goalscoring run he went on last season while playing through the middle are an indication he can be very effective as a striker when we have the right people out wide supplying the bullets.

 

Fucksake man, away and take yourself for a walk or something, no point falling out with everyone

 

We sold a 30 year old Kyogo for £10m and you’re saying an almost 28 year old Kasper Dolberg is at the wrong end of his career for us to make a profit on him. You’re need to stop with the bullshit eventually surely?

Being on this forum is not good for your mental health. It’s obvious you’re a sandwich short of a picnic. Take a break.

He presses the entire back line playing left wing. That’s literally what’s made him so effective over his time here. He doesn’t just press the RB when he plays LW.

He isn’t a striker. Never has been. Never will be. The big chances he misses proves that. Mental to even suggest we can move forward with him as #1.

We need Dolberg.

You were greeting about not wanting me to engage with you and you’ve replied to me. Do what you’re told and stop engaging. That’s plenty.

 

Fair enough

I will stop now. I've been perfectly reasonable and civil with most people up to this point though. Why a large cohort of posters on this site can't seem to accept other viewpoints is beyond me though. It's 2 people to argue at the end of the day, I take the approach of sticking to the issue and explaining why I have that point of view and I'm left with abuse, insults and complete misrepresentations of what I've said in response.

I've asked countless people which part they disagree with and I've been insulted relentlessly in response. I've been called a hun, all other forms of insults, I've had posters completely misrepresent what I've said.

What is so hard about being able to disagree without having to resort to abuse and insults? Why do posters have to keep jumping in and misrepresent what I've said in an attempt to undermine the point I'm making?

 

Well this is much more constructive.

I've listed the reasons why I think Maeda is better through the middle, the aggressive pressing brings more fruit through the middle for me. Interceptions in that area have a greater likelihood to lead to opportunities.

Reason no 2 is his technical limitations are much less costly through the middle. Our wingers touch the ball more than our strikers, our wingers have to dribble more, our wingers have to cross the ball more. Strikers are generally about the penalty box and Daizen is a live wire there. His finishing let's him down but I think confidence is an issue there. If we have creative players to make more chances he'll take him and once his confidence is up his efficiency in front of goal will improve.

Our creativity was the issue v Kairat not our efficiency in front of goal.

 

"Fucknuts"

 

"Celtic must convince Dolberg to sign regardless of transfer fee

According to Belgian outlet Nieuwsblad, Celtic may go on to bid between €12-13m for Dolberg, which is of course well within the club’s financial means.

That is between £10.3m and £11.2m, so a hefty sum of money. But it is being reported that even if Anderlecht accept an offer of that ilk, Celtic will still need to try and convince Dolberg to sign.

There’s also the issue of the Denmark international’s salary, which reportedly is something Celtic are yet to come to an agreement over too.
Nieuwsblad stated: “Celtic has already made several overtures but has now also formulated an initial offer. This is significantly lower than the €10.5 million plus bonuses initially expected.

“It is, of course, only a first proposal, but it is insufficient for RSCA for the time being.

“Danish media has also reported a four-year contract, but the player’s salary is also reportedly insufficient. Celtic will have to make additional efforts to achieve their target

According to insiders, the Scottish champions could certainly go for €12-13 million. If that happens, they’ll still have to fully convince the striker to sign.

"The call came just before the AEK-Anderlecht match. Scottish champions Celtic were eliminated in the Champions League qualifying round by Kairat Almaty but want to strengthen their squad for the Europa League. Coach Brendan Rodgers appreciates Kasper Dolberg's profile as a new striker. He could join Scotland if Adam Idah leaves in the coming days. He is attracting interest from Swansea, among other".
