Frimpong's gone

[Bridie Bhoy]

I think I might be the only one that thinks that this was a very honest and candid interview with Lennon. Everyone knows my feelings on Lennon, I wanted him gone when he failed in the champions league. However, he still is our manager and I don't doubt that he is doing the best for the club he loves.
When players aren't Celtic fans they are always looking for the best money available, how many players wanted away for this reason? How many players wanted to return to their home countries and their families during covid....who knows but we all know that family is most important in these pandemic times.
I also think he has a point in that we sometimes as a fan base we get a bit ahead of ourselves, yes we have lost the league but in the grand scheme it just a season. What is going on in the background can be worry some. But the club has to do what is best for the club, selling PingPong is a good move if he wants away.
Rangers are spending money they don't have, we have and always will do spend within our means, that has kept us in good shape for the last 20 years. It has brought us huge Scottish success. I'm disapointed in the lack of Champions league football as that wouldhave strenghened us in every sense.
The house of cards..... it was a hopeful comment from across the road, it's not going to happen Celtic do deals that generally are for the benifit of the club (PingPong for example). If you don't think Covid has effected everything in football you're living on the moon. Rangers are winning so it seems like everything is rosey. If they don't make the champions league group stage it will be a pack of cards over there - fact. They are spending well beyond their means..... have we seen this before, yes and history has a un canny way of repeating it self.
Yes the results and everything around this season has been a disaster, but it's not the end of world. Yes it hurts, but the club collectively needs to roll up it's sleaves and get on with it. Could this be a Alex Fergussion moment for Lennon.... well it looks like the board are fully behind him. I do know that DD sees something in Lennon and if Lennon can get rid of the players that want away and have players that want to be here and fight for the shirt then he would be be better shape. How many past players have said they will run through a brick wall for him.

Come on Celtic lets get a run of wins going into the summer.....it would make us all feel better

Football is about results and stability.

I get what you are saying CR but this isn't that we are looking like losing 10IAR, or cashing in on Frimpong. It about not even putting in a challenge for the league (we are completely out of the title race in the middle of January, FFS!, we also bombed out of the Champions League, endured a humiliating Europa League campaign, were disasterous in our attempts to retain the League Cup and nearly threw away the 4th consecutive treble by luckily scraping past lower league opposition in the delayed Cup Final on penalties).

It is about so many players not giving a toss. It is about a players clearly not being fit enough. It is about players looking miserable and asking to be transferred. It is about those same lethargic, unfit, unhappy malcontents getting picked ahead of other players who are ignored and made to waste away on the sidelines or in the stands. It is the shockingly bad tactics which are repeated and repeated and repeated in game after game when they are clearly not working. It is the poor substitutions. It is a lack of vision and direction. It is the refusal to acknowledge that there may be a point in the fans being unhappy with the same shitshow game, after game. It is the shear and utter disdain and contempt with which the board and management team treat the fanbase (or "customers").

Bridie Bhoy, I don't disagree with anything you say. I do point out that many players wanted away in the summer.... after 9IAR when they should have been as happy as they could be.... but they probably wanted to cash in on their highly inflated stock.

Amazing return, Peter will have a raging boner!

He gets irritated when asked about the last 4 games without a win. Says we were the better team against LIVI only because we had 13 players out. Forgets Livi were better team in 1st game and had their 2nd string out for the second game as they were in the Semi.
YOU HAVE RUN OUT OF EXCUSES NL.

3/4 years from now after the Coaching he receives in Chermany he’ll be worth 3/4 times that that’s what top Coaching does

Not fussed about him going, had a great 1st season, then has fallen away, can’t defend, final ball is poor, can’t take a kicking, now turns round and passes the ball back when he comes up against the 1st player he encounters 10mill plus is a great deal, he’s one of MANY want away players that don’t give there all, we NEED to get shot off, 2 french players aren’t trying a leg next, followed by Christie, he thinks he’s better than what he is....

Ask yourself a question.
Why would Bayer Leverkusen pay 10m for a player they could have got for 2m at most?

You are speculatating here JamSam67, the boy has had good coaching here at Celtic and in doing so has found a path to the 1st team. However, has he progressed with the 1st team, I would say no?
There could be hundreds on reason why he wants away...one could be that he's sick of getting targeted by th Scottish Bully boys.
He might get better coaching in Germany, but he doesn't seem the sharpest tool in the box so we'll see how he goes (and he goes with my best wishes), not everyone that goes to Uni comes out with a degree even with the best coaching.

Was Fringpong not in papers for doing some dodgy stuff?

Remember the true price will come out in both the selling and the buying clubs accounts, , if the say 10mill + I expect it to be true, not like the typical hun ”undisclosed “ fee transfers

Some American want to be wag, flew over hoping to get her talons into him, then ran to the papers when he wouldn’t buy the gold digger a designer bag

More degrees for those that go to university than those that don't though CR

Yeh but as you said, apart from the first season, he's hardly set the heather on fire. And 3 goals in total? How much is James Forrest worth then? So why would Leverkusen offer that amount?

Sorry mate don’t want to disagree but there’s not one player at Celtic park right now that’s getting any decent coaching imo
Or any fitness training.
we’re looking at last Season that’s fine but I am looking at this Season where we’ve been no better than Shite/Pish.
No Tactics no Style and Deffo no Game plan Our Manager has looked like Someone caught in the Headlights. JK couldn’t give a toss WGS son under 18 coach at best.
Your right about one thing I am guessing but do believe that the Coaching you get in Europe as a whole is Miles ahead of us.
The Dutch and the German coaching is top class. Ours is poundshop at best and has been for A few years.
It’s why I’d like a Coach/Manager that actually knows Football and isn’t an Ex fan of the Club we Need a football brain
But that’s just me

At 10m they see something I can't see, as I said earlier good attitude and plenty of potential but 10m???

There’s a player in there, we all can see glimpses of it, Leverkusen can see it it, only difference is they might have a coach that can help his development, NO player here has improved under Lennon, frimpong still has 2.5 years left in his contract, if they want him, they need to pay the asking price.....

 

[Hoopy427]

If the reported fee of 11.5m is true, we've only sold 4 players in our history for more than that, Wanyama, VVD, Dembele and KT and Leverkusen are spending more on him than we've ever spent on a player!

As I said he has potential but I wouldn't put him in the top 20 or 30 players we've had in the last decade, 11.5m is madness but I'll take it

10m is a bit of a stretch. He could have bought out his own contract for a quarter of that. And Leverkusen would know that too. Its bollox.

 

[Docco]

To be perfectly honest, there is not one player i would be gutted at if they sold them just now! Thats the truth
Maybe Broony
