    ON-LOAN Celtic star John Kennedy is earning rave reviews with Norwich in the English Championship.
    The 6ft 2in stopper, who has had such bad luck with knee injuries, is at Carrow Road until January and boss Glenn Roeder would love to keep him longer.
    The former Newcastle and West Ham manager said: "I would go as far as to say John is the best centre-half I've ever worked with. They don't make men like him now.
    "He is a warrior who has been so unlucky in his life with injuries. John would not look out of place in any league in the world.
    "I can understand why AC Milan were about to bid for him prior to the horrific injury he got with Scotland against Romania.
    "He certainly wouldn't be here if that hadn't happened."



    From the Daily Record. This is good to hear. Never saw him play for them but he seems to be doing well :50:. I'd love to see him come back and do well for us. He was * awesome for us when he first broke through and obviously he has had some awful luck with injuries but if he were to stay fit and come back to us - how do you think he'd do ?

    i am looking forward to having him back and am sure we will get him back rather thatn him staying down south beyond next summer. (i know it says Jan but i feel that will be extended)

    I'm glad he's making and impact, thats obviously building his confidence and abilty which is a major bonus!!

    Well done John, keep it up big man and we'll see you for Champions league duty next year!!

    If he is still fit and still playing well he should stay there for the season. No point coming back here and not playing.

    Its a shame, hes what 25 now? Could have been a great, still could turn out a good player, but has missed too much football to live up to his full potential.

    Testimonial?
    For being unlucky with injuries?
    I hardly think that's justified.

    I think he should stay at Norwich for this season and hope he comes back and stays injury free.

    Nice one. Chuffed big time for John. Will do his confidence the world of good knowing how much he's rated.

    Great player in the making before his injury ,glad he is now back playing ,and hopefully is putting all his woes behind him ,

    It would be could if he can come back to celtic ,i think GS has done the right thing in putting him out on loan ,probaly monitoring him ,and he is playing at a good level aswell ,so he should be a good asset when he returns .
