Boli isn’t the answer, time to raid Killie and let these 3 go

Greg Taylor looks a player who would walk into any SPFL team and with Celtic needing cover in that position we must sign the 21 year old up, he fits our business plan perfectly. 

Young, strong and assured in a team with no great ambitions, imagine how he would flourish playing at Celtic?

His fellow fullback Stephen O’Donnell is also looking for a move and would provide the depth at Right Back in support of Hatem who looks a fine player who will only get better.

Having 2 players from the same team will also add continuity and with Ajer, Jozo and Jullien available at Centre Half where Hatem and to a lesser degree Bitton can play would give us the defensive roster we need.

That then leaves those who need to leave.

Jack Hendry has no future at Celtic, he is young and on a long term deal so could go out on loan to try and save his Celtic career but if any offers came in we should bite the hand.

He could go to Killie as a make weight in a deal for their fullbacks either permanently or on loan but the lad has to get some game time. 

When Nir Bitton is preferred to you in your own position you must see the writing on the wall.

Tony Ralston is simply not trusted, we have been waiting for him to seize his chance for what seems an age now. 

That we have bought a Right Back and are chasing another for cover with him on our books speaks volumes of where he is in the gaffers plans, not to say that Ajer as today proved looks exponentially better in his position than he is after just a handful of games there.

It is time that he tried his hand elsewhere, much like Klopp said about Ryan Kent, at his age loans are not the answer, he needs to find a place to play regularly.

Eboue Kouassi at this stage sits behind Brown, Bitton and even the uncapped Luca Connell as our defensive midfielder.

He is a waste of wages and a squad spot, this Rodgers flop needs to be moved on, the 3 million we spent on his transfer rivals Compper, Boerrighter and Scheidt for our worst ever spends.

In truth I would love to see Scott Sinclair stay but he may to leave if our valuation is met, Daniel Arzani needs to get on the pitch soon or his loan deal will be ripped up and I would expect Ntcham to play his heart out as he did today looking to earn a move in January, good luck to him with that, he has looked refocused in his last matches.

Last season we limped to the title with the assistant manager calling plenty of the shots, going forward Lenny has both the money and the desire to rebuild Celtic, we looked incredible today for swathes of the match and a little rrocky in others.

To fix our deficiencies, the Killie fullbacks and these 3 out the door would be a great start.
