Setbacks And New Signing Targets. Just Another Day On The Celtic Transfer Rumour Mill.

Olivier Ntcham Is Moaning And Wants A Move.

The less said about this the better, and in particular because James has already covered it.

If he was a first team guaranteed pick, if he was even remotely important to the general functioning of the team, if he had won plaudits for his excellent performances, instead of being a frustrating figure and often an infuriating one, I would see this as a bigger blow.

Ntcham wants away. When do we get actual news on this front?

Because that is not actual news.

That is known to all of us and has been for a while.

His disinterest is obvious. That he thinks he’s too good for the game here is the only real surprise.

He has not impressed fans, either with his displays or his attitude towards the club.

The general feeling amongst most of us is that he go anytime he likes and the club receives a satisfactory bid. There really isn’t all that much more to say on the subject; let Porto or whoever come forward and make their offers. The moment one hits the mark, let him go.

Ntcham’s area of the pitch is where we’re strongest. Bitton, Brown, McGregor, Christie, Rogic, Connell and Eboue can all easily fill the space. The manager wants more players in this area, and at least one will be signed. Ntcham will not be missed.
