Come on Rod, how could you put these players in the same breath ( as for experience) as Roy Keane, ask any young professional, " Which player would you most like to play with in your team?" and they will all say Roy Keane.

The guy has been captain of the biggest team in the world for nearly a decade. If we didnt have Davids, I would want Keane in my team ahead of any player at Celtic.


1 - The players I was talking about are playing regularly - not out injured more than they play.

2 - I want no player who turns his back on his own country while shouting racist abuse telling impressionable youngsters how to behave.

3 - How great an influence has he been on Fletcher, Miller etc recently - helped their careers any with his backstabbing? I'd want the kids at my club encouraged - not discouraged. (BTW News is emerging he was sacked - but a deal's been done to make it mutual consent).

4 - I doubt he'd play much. He's only managed less than 30 games a season in his career at Man Utd.

Sorry - I'd take Larsson (a true proffessional) before 10 Keanes, or a Davids TBH.

Nemesis,

from a scottish person , living in scotland hoops fan and generally believing that most folk dont really know celtics team.

Players do want to pay alongside good players, managers want a progressive mixed and settled team.
As far as i`m concerned Keane is on the downslope by a longway. He`s unfit or injured a fair bit, He`s mouthy and i want a positive force in the dressing room(and no phsycobabble about how he was really motivating the team by ripping them to bits) Roll Eyes. Not an exampe as far as i`m concerned.
We had a european cup winner in paul lambert put out to pasture and we have sutton and petrov at parkhead both  icons of how players should play the game. we had Larsson at parkhead as an exampe to all. We dont need a 34 year old for a season or two taking wages when we have plenty of players coming through and leaders in the team.

and man utd the worlds greatest team for the last 10 years...it was great they won the european cup but they have been living on that one for a wee while now.

I also dislike his part in the poaching of liam millar to man utd instead of letting him mature..tapped up and roy is a celtic fan...not the kind of thing celtic fans do.

Which player would you most like to play with in your team, Roy Keane or John Hartson?"[/i] (the player with the highest profile at Celtic) and they will all say Roy Keane.

See my earlier point about not knowing much about Scottish Football..... Cool

I might not be up to scratch with scotish football (who cares about the 12th best league in europe unless you support one of the teams in the league Cheesy) but for me John Hartson is the highest profile player at Celtic. I'm not saying he's the best player, but im sure he has the most international caps out of all the Celtic squad and he has also played in the best, most popular league in world football for 3 different teams.... Cool

I'm not, but considering how lucky the guy has been... you might get some interesting odds on him!

Strachan would not want him there I suspect. Can you imagine knowing your successor is playing in your team. As soon as there is a bad run of half a dozen games, they will want Strachan out, keane in. Despite that, I would be absolutely amzed if he did not go. The same has haapened with McLeish. Eight games ago, we were champions, riding high in the Champions League and all looked rosy. Now he is public enemy number one for 50% of supporters. Thats probably not fair, not public enemy number one but, the fans want a fresh face. Not sure how well a former C*lt would be though (David Moyes). Get Super Ally in there to work alongside Venables, Ranieri or Bobby Robson.

Good work Rod & Pat your on the money except for the Larsson part ( I wouldnt want want his memory tarnished  tongue)

Nem, Hartson maybe the highest profile player in your eyes but hes actually only our 4th choice striker, hes only playing cos the other 3 are injured.

Stilian Petrov would be a first team player in every EPL team with the exception of Chelsea, but most of you prolly havent heard of him. Hes a better player than any of the 14 or so central midfielders on Spurs books (I'm not having a pop here  Wink)

All I can say about Keane is: legend.

Don't care what he's like now - he was the best.
