Devil's advocaat

Great to see Raskin back, but by f we're gonna miss Sima. 

Another goal for Windass today.

Spot on Compo pal. 

No, Tokely was ICT. Big dirty bastard that he was.

The tide is bound to turn at some point.

Of course it will. We have to realise most of us know the current sides shortcomings, and yet PC is reeling the enemy in, without even adding a player or having a preseason with the players.

Rodgers bailed out once he realised Gerard had the measure of him, PC is a far better manager than SG was.

Yesterday has done nothing to dent my belief that our current manager is set for huge success. 

Not for me, we've had our fair share of washed up EPL wage munchers.

This needs a formula, not just a straight division! 🤣

Should goals be expressed as a ratio of XG? Ie 10 goals for us is easier than the same fir Hertz?

Playing up to my moniker, what if those 10 goals were like John McGinns the other night?.

It's an incredible piece of business imo

I don't really watch EPL, is he a good un then? I'm wary of big name loans, after 'the welshman'.

Have you met the Rangers fanbase? 😀

Lol yes! 🤣

Thats 2 absolute belters in a week, both with his standing foot. And a decent header too.

He's a goalscorer, doesn't have to have a great game.

Shanklands having a shocker. Think he might actually be slower than Colak as well. He can't run. 

You were saying?

I'm not sure 'not paying over the odds' and 'getting deals done quickly' are particularly good bedfellows. 😎

Very true Bill.

Ideally i'd prefer a striker who is better than what Celtic have. That's how you win trophies and titles. Not signing players who wouldn't get in their team

Ideally, yes, but guid fitba teams are greater than the sum of their parts. You could argue that Ferguson and McCall weren't a huge upgrade on McStay and Collins, but they ended up a cornerstone of a very successful team. Likewise Boyd and Larsson, but the former scored more goals.

If £4m gets us straight into the CL, then it's a worthwhile outlay.

On the face of it, seems a lot of money, but IMO we'd be getting a proven goalscorer, leader and a guy who has improved incredibly in the last two seasons. Loves a goal against the rheptiles anaw.

Never been a question over his finishing, but he's developed his hold up play and all round game a hell of a lot.

If the likes of Naysmith et al can get that out of him, just imagine what PC can do for him.

Get it done.

Aye, 2nd was a peach.

I'd like to have seen big Soapy at DM, but happy to bow to Monsieur Clemente's superior knowledge. 😎

I've no idea why, so don't ask me to explain, but I can't get excited about this at all. 🤷‍♂️

Hope he does well, as I do with all of our formers.

We can agree to disagree. 

Don't know if I can agree that we didn't play well in Seville, while we may not have dominated or passed them off the park, you have to remember who we're playing against. You don't win in Spain if you don't play well, as our history attests.
