Callum McGregor

Ah the classic reply of go to follow follow if someone has an opinion that's different to ur own

 

ANGE POSTECOGLOU has revealed that Callum McGregor's injury is "fairly significant" and warns it won't be a "short-term" spell for him on the sidelines.

The captain was forced off in the second half of their Champions League match with RB Leipzig on Wednesday.


and he will see a specialist today to discover how serious the injury is.

He would have missed Celtic's game at St Johnstone on Saturday through suspension, but the Hoops now wait to see just how long the captain will be out for.

Speaking about the extent of the McGregor's knock, Postecoglou told Sky Sports: "He's off to see a specialist this morning, for him to come off (against RB Leipzig) it's fairly significant.

"Timeline wise we'll find out today. It's obviously not short-term but we hope it's not too long-term.


He's a fantastic player and beyond that, it's his influence on and off the field as a leader.

"There's not one person that can replace that, it will be a case of the other guys stepping up and filling the breach.

"We missed him for a few games last year and it's just stuff we have got to cope with.

"Obviously he is disappointed because he's such a big part of how we play our football and what we've created here so I know he'll be working hard, whatever the timeline to get back."

 

Did i say follow follow ? stop making things up i said wrong forum never said you were a hun still haven't answered my question why so negative all the time not hard to answer but you don't you just keep moaning * you must be delightful to live with

 

I hate Facebook Celtic fans!

So many saying he needed dropped ands that its great James McCarthy will get a chance.... McCarthy's rotten man

 

Fact he ran 50 yards full pelt and played on for another few minutes hopefully means it's not

 

lol i hate them as well! It's bizzare how big a difference it is with FB Celtic fans and fans on here. It's like we are on two different planets. Even royalists and * like that on facebook

The Celtic fans commenting on Daily Record are 99% good and funny though!

 

Iv actually answered you twice mate but if you don't understand that people get * off at their team and their players after a poor result perhaps it's you who's on the wrong forum.

 

Mental mate! Like Ive literally seen players have 9/10 performances and us all drooling over them here, and folk on Facebook are like 'He was nowhere to be seen all game, drop him'

 

Some folk just don't get football. If a player, regardless of their position, isn't going on mazy runs, making incisive forward passing and getting a goal and 3 assists per game then they had a shiter, according to these people

 

Hopefully not out long and we can weather any absence until he’s back… but the whole team need to up their game…

We aren't even into the high attrition winter period and have an injury list starting to look like it’s a bad February…

I wasn’t looking forward to the long break for the ‘No Morals Cup’ … but might be glad of it now if we can keep it together until then…

… then hope that a few games in Australia sees everyone back and in form without more injuries being picked up.

 

Real bad news that..

Bit of a game changer league wise. Need to grind it out til the world cup starts and hopefully he's back after..

7 league game's, including the likes of Tynecastle and Livi away..

 

Was he banned for tomorrow anyway? Not a big difference if out for weeks… but Ange would have planned for it.

 

Big miss don't really have anyone to replace him sadly when we had tam he could push forward and drop reo back there

nah i get that after a poor result everyone gets * off its natural but like i said your always negative not looking through your posting history but tbh i cant remember you posting something positive and if im on wrong forum i think some one would of told me after nearly 10 years like i said very aggressive always moaning nothing positive cheer up ffs we can still get 2nd in champions league andwe still top of league we got beat off the better team on Wednesday but that doesn't suit you

 

*!

 

Nir and especially Tam really stepped up for us in December. Need others to do the same now they are gone.

 

Massive chance for the likes of Abildgaard and Ideguchi to show their worth.

We have depth in midfield, none are as good as McGregor but we've got Hatate, O'Riley, Mooy, Abildgaard, Ideguchi and Turnbull.

 

*! Is going to be a big miss. He has barely missed a game since Ange took over, even when his cheekbone was cracked he only missed like 1 game or something ridiculous. 'Not a short term' *... It does provide opportunity for someoen else to step up, but it is a massive loss 100%

 

im sure someone said ideguchi is injured, im sure mooy is injured and the managers was saying abildgaard was still way behind with fitness

hatate and oriley are first team picks that leaves turnbull and abildgaard mcarthy who are all quite slow paced

massive blow mcgregor is possibly our best player overall but well see how ange and us adapt to it

on paper our squad looks strong but the reserves are no where near as good as our 1st team

guess our style is going to change

 

One of the main differences is that you don't have Forum-like anonymity on FB - when you post, the whole world knows who you are.

My core Celtic values remain unchanged whether Im posting on FB or here, but I use very different language when articulating them between platforms. And TBH, I rarely post much on FB about anything - far less fitba (as most of my FB friends aren't interested in the game).
