Quick question:
Do we really expect Celtic to sign a Big Name, or do we trust RD. Going back over his seminar, I will be very very surprised if we sign the " big name". I think Ronny will look for players to fit his system.
For me whatever player Ronny buys in is fine he knows exactly the type of player he wants.

I'm happy with hidden gems! If RD picks his signings I think they will turn out good! He's developed 2. Of norways best players!

I'm sure RD would take a number of big name signings, bearing in mind we won't be going for messi, ronaldo etc, but only if they improve the team.

We have gradually spent less and less and went for lower profile managers in consecutive seasons from the MON days. As much as we all enjoyed a big signing or two, we have depended on hidden gems and potential over Marquis Signings and that will continue to be the case. The difficulty in attracting players from Top Class leagues can be counteracted with shrewd business from Europe and other continents and the acquisition of class, Scottish talent on our doorstep (as long as they are better than what we have).
It has been a while since we developed a star like McGeady, but Henderson, McGregor and Fisher look good prospects and the way we finished the season was very encouraging in both style and efficiency - and most of these guys will stay.
The main problem areas for Celtic as I see it, is how to replace Denayer (who was immense) and VVD if he leaves too?

"Sokratis Papastathopoulos" is that a big enough name for you or you looking for bigger?

Marquee signings are long gone in my opinion what we are about at celtic now is bringing in players that are hungry and or with something to prove the main reason for this is money the wages that would only be squad players like Steven fletcher are on more than double our highest paid 0

Why shouldn't RD be allowed that bit extra quality though. I feel now like we brought him in more on his ability to work on a budget than the football he gets teams playing.

JimTim maybe ronny doesn't want to spend big because of big egos

No team wants to spend big if they can do it for less they will. PL is only interested in having a team to win the league and scrape through to the CL group stages so we get the extra cash the less spent the better the turnover at the end of the year its frustrating but good business if we pull it off
