    Again Celtic B side playing that low down the league's ain't helping anyone and maybe that's why the zombies pulled out of it .
    The B side needs to be higher up the leagues to see how good the youths are but again the smaller clubs hinder us from not agreeing our B side should be in the second or first division.

    100%.

    The SFA prefers the Fort William's and the Cowdenbeath's in the league system than focus on developing talents domestic. It's backward thinking at it's worst and a handbrake on Scottish football in general.

    He’s supposedly back training with the first team after moving to a CF position and his form with the B team.

    Wouldn’t be shocked to see him on the bench with all the injuries.

    Rocco Vata’s stunning form with the Celtic B team has seen Brendan Rodgers put him back into the first-team fold.

    The attacker has scored an impressive six goals in five games for the Hoops’ second string in the Lowland League.

    The 18-year-old was part of the first-team squad for pre-season but on his return he stepped down to train primarily with the second string.

    Rodgers now has the academy graduate back up with his top-team as he charts his progress.

    Vata’s form has rocketed since the Hoops moved him from a winger to become more of a central striker.

    The Republic of Ireland youth cap is out of contract next summer and there is already big interest in him.

    Italian side Torino and Belgian side Club Brugge are two of the European sides who are keen on landing the Celtic teenager on freedom of contract.

    See there are claims he is signing for Hellas Verona, not sure how accurate these are.

    Should be salvaging this, contract extension, permanent place first team. I'd be playing him ahead of Forrest anyway

    * waste if true. Zero pathway for youth in to the 1st team. Not surprised. Many have gone already that should.have been given a chance.

    The fact that Forrest gets game time ahead of him is * preposterous.

    Sometimes I really shake my head and wonder what the actual * we do at times.

    Has he got bad breath or something? Is he inappropriatley bending over in the showers?

    Tillio, Abada, Yang, Maeda, Forrest, Hacksa, Mikey.
    7 wingers for the first team, ahead of Vata, and still we are signing another one in Palma.
    None of which match the calibre of Jota.

    No wonder guys like Vata will look elsewhere.
    That's 7 going on 8 wingers ahead of him, all wanting game time, but all not of the actual quality we need.


    We should be having a Jota level winger on both sides, with a back up like Yang and tilio. That's it, no more. Then likes of Vata from the youth male up the rotational players and actually get game time.

    We literally need to * half the amount of players we have in this position, and the half that remains needs massively upgraded on.

    Succinctly put.

    It's actually a * joke.

    Jota is gone, and the attitude of the support is "ok, we got good money,go out, spend a whack of it on at least someone who can lace his boots".

    The club attitude is ", ah well. Is Lennys list still in that bin over there? No? Hokey doke, here's 4m, go out and grab some *".

    There's literally about 6 wingers of a high profile operating on Jotas level that we could sign at the 8-12m mark. Do we go out and sign them?

    Of course not.

    Lawell or not. This is biscuit tin mentality.

    We could go out and sign three CL level players at 10m a piece and our finances would still be sound as *.

    Instead we play roulette with 6 players at a couple of million a pop and hope they come good.

    The club have zero * ambition.
