Oh which I'd say 2 are good players.

 

At this moment in time we've made a similar amount/standard of signing and arguably have a better defence and squad generally.

 

The crucial factor is the manager IMO.

In looking at your "Celtic 11" Danny

 

GK - I will give it to Boruc but only because we haven't seen enough of Letizi and he has his doubters.

 

I think our defence is better than theirs - Smith is a much better option that Camara, whilst I would rather have Hutton over Telfer (but we still need to strengthen there). If I were a Tim (thankfully I am not) I wouldn't be overly confident with the Caldwell/Balde pairing either - whilst J-Rod when he came back from injury was one of our better performers last season and was very solid.

 

Defence to the Gers IMO

 

Midfield - I think the midfield is an area which looks pretty equal to me - but they will be playing a different shape to us anyway so it is difficult to compare. I think that Fergie and Clement will be a very strong pairing in the middle for us whilst Sionko and Burke look like very good options on the flanks (assuming one of them has to play LM - another area we need strengthening).

 

Attack - we have a guy that scored 37 times last season and another guy (Prso) who can score a lot of goals but also brings other players into the mix. Their front line needs time to gel but right now it hasn't been working in pre-season.

 

Again, Attack goes to Gers IMO.

 

Manager - not worth discussing, blatantly obvious.

 

I think we have a stronger starting 11 than they do and with the tactical nous we expect from PLG we should have the upper hand - we might fall due to lack of depth but as a starting 11 I think we are stronger.

 

However, the caveat is that there are still over 4 weeks of the window to go and both sides may see movement.

 

I just hope that Celtic don't sign players of THIS quality before it shuts - but even if they do, it is STILL all about what WE do !
