    New signings are always exciting, can't wait to see this guy and Balde in action already. The footage of Virgil doesn't look amazing defensively but I'll never judge a player until he's here and playing.

    When you look at the amount of wages that have been freed up it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
    Probably more signings will happen with selling either Hooper or/and Wanyama. But I always seemed to be surprised at how resourceful Celtic can be with targets. I think we'll see a free transfer or 2 coming in.

    Agreed. Mulgrew should be playing centre half majority of the time. Only moving into central mid occasionally depending on injuries, fatigue, suspension etc. Him partnering Wilson would be my first choice pairing just now.

    Though hopefully Virgil can raise the standards a bit and be that dominating centre half that we need.

    Wonder if he injured himself, at the end of that you hear the guy saying to him "I did tell you not to flat out sprint". :97:

    it judges effort put in aswell as monitor heart rate, they do the same in a few weeks time and going by the last readings they can tell if the player is not making the same amount of effort or is putting more in, means they cant cheat or hide in training, as its all marked down

    Don't think Van Dijk is injured from the footage from the video. Balde looks sharper which is good to see.

    That's the hard part :56:

    Try doing your hobby, kicking a ball into a net, for 30 grand a week.
