Always wondered whether any of the Celtic lads would be able to cut it beyond their abysmal Farmers League. Not so sure, the standard is grim.

Let Mitchell move people out without hindrance. Let him do his job. I don’t think Dubravka will stay beyond this season, he’ll want game time. That said he absolutely has a role to play between now and the end of the season. It’s become apparent from various reports that we don’t stand do make anything PSR wise moving him on other than his weekly wage which is negligible. We stand to lose far more than gain if he moves now (the caveat being unless they have a plan B to Pope coming in such as a Trafford but even then that’s rolling the dice a bit as it’s not guaranteed to work).

Has he been starting games or on the bench? I'm all for the no-dickheads policy but there has to be a time as a manager that you back yourself to make it work. I don't think Madueke is necessarily a bad egg either, just your modern day footballer with a touch of arrogance. If there's anything bad about his character, Gordon will know, probably Hall and Tino too. If Howe can turn Gordon into a leading PL winger, he could possibly do even better with Madueke. Physically he's immense, quick, strong, can go both ways with his feet. Looks like another big game player too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Front six next year: Gordon Isak Madueke Joelinton Bruno Tonali Add a CB and a keeper and your talking top 4 as a minimum IMO. (Perhaps need some depth to the squad added too). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t he benched for something which sounded like a fallout or conduct issues Seems he's certainly out of favour but Maresca is ruthless. He's quite happy just to ostracise players who are no longer in his plans, they also have loads of players in similar positions, Neto, Sancho, Palmer etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea next season have got Sancho / Felix / Esteavo / Neto for wide areas, and Madueke probably the one that's got a market due to lower wages so we should take advantage.

They've also got Sterling coming back too So probably got to suck up most of his wages even if they get him back out on loan. Would like us to sniff around Chukwuemeka too from them if available for £20m. He's a perfect CM for current Premier League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I do agree with @SUPERTOONthat Dibling is another great option. I wouldn't put it past Chelsea to add Dibling to their stockpile either.

With the way we’ve managed Tino and Hall, we’d have to be a sensible pick for the kid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronson333 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I think Dibling has a higher ceiling than Maduke, but we’ll have to take the patient Hall style approach for 6-12 months before we see his full potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
