    He reminded me of Pele. Only player that ever has. We were very lucky to have him.

    I've never understood why Larssons first goal in this game never gets talked about as one of his best. It's better than the chip in terms of technique for me although I can see why the chip is more likely to be his defining goal because of the game it came in. Still though. I feel this goal deserves more credit.

    I've always said that I felt that goal was better, personally.

    That's a quality goal, that game is the first I can remember watching of Celtic.

    Another bit of skill by Larsson that I've never really seen talked about is an assist against Rangers, I think it was at Ibrox and we won 1-2. Agathe crossed it in at pace and Larsson flicked it first time with this inside of his right foot to Hartson who scored. Was an incredible bit of vision and skill. I'll try and find a video.

    Disgusting piece of skill.

    Sign him up. He's still a better player than the entire team.

    A proper legend.

    This is the kind of talented, intelligent and mentally tough footballer we should be aspiring to sign.

    Sadly, we'll never see another Larsson in our life time here.

    Not at the price that we got him for, plus the fact that he stayed here for so long when he was no doubt being tracked by many other top European clubs across the world.

    Simply one of a kind.

    Fantastic.

    Best I have ever seen, Larsson stood out from the tiers 100 yards away, his speed and control over a few yards were exceptional.
    As MON would say simply magnificent.

    Just look @ 20.51
    a whole bitter lemon being swallowed.
    fantastic to watch

    That video shows what Celtic can be

    So
    Go 2 F Delia & joke Collins - sympathy! they should be wondering how the * they were ever allowed near the place.

    I want players & a manager who give all and have all to give.

    not triers who do their best!
    I can do that and would do for free.

    Delia & Collins and half those players GO

    Just listened to this, never heard it before.

    Apart from Tom English talking * it's a good listen.
