Very frustrating when Celtic dominate in the first half then do nothing in the second half. The game might be out of reach but need to keep pressing in the second half.

The only thing bugging me about my beloved Celtic right now is that we don't defend the posts at corners. This is how we lost the 2nd goal to Rangers last time out. Am i wrong?

[@APerson-tb8mr]

Mark Scott was thinking the exact same thing that is the reason we post the rangers game they cleared one off line from our corner and they scored because we had no one on posts at corners

[@ronjoe1]

Agreed, but it will depend on what's going on in the box. It's actually exactly how we didn't score in that same game. twice cleared off the line.

[@scotvince7847]

Griffiths is back. Very good connection with Edouard. 2 strikers is really better.

[@celticfan67]

***CELTIC SUMMER TRANSFER TARGET LIST 🍀*** Odsonne Edouard 🇫🇷 - Firstly, we need to get Edouard a new contract. Give him 50/60k a week. Give him whatever he wants! Even if we sell him for £30/40m, we won’t get better! Selling Moussa for £20m was a joke and a huge mistake. Sign him on a contract until 2025 and he will be the best signing we will make! Mislav Oršić 🇭🇷 - Oršić would be an incredible signing for Celtic and the perfect replacement for Sinclair! An explosive winger with an eye for goal. He's had an absolutely incredible season scoring a hat-trick in the Champions League Group Stages against Shakhtar Donetsk, and also scoring against Man City! He also got 3 goals and 3 assists in Champions League qualifying. It's not just Europe though as he's also performing domestically with 11 goals in 13 appearances. Taking his tally to a very impressive 19 goals and 5 assists in 26 appearances this season so far. He recently turned 27 in December so is in the peak of his career, exactly what Celtic need seeing as we have plenty of prospects. The best part is that he is affordable. Zagreb have supposedly set an asking price of £7-8m which in today's market is very fair. Of course this would be instead of Elyounoussi (who I think is brilliant) but I just feel he brings more speed and would be slightly cheaper. Oršić should 100% be Sinclair's replacement! Lovro Majer 🇭🇷 - Rogic has been poor for a while now and he probably has a decent bit of value in him. We should cash in and buy Majer. He is somewhat of a 22 year old, ‘wonderkid’ back in Croatia. He would provide brilliant options to allow us to rotate and step in with injuries. He is 100% affordable and would make plenty of sense. Filip Benković 🇭🇷 - Another Croatian in the form of Filip Benković. We all know what we get with this lad. 6'4, brilliant tackler, composed and can play a bit too! All this despite only being 22 years old! He was VERY highly rated at Zagreb and it's not hard to see why. He for me is the best centre back we've had since Van Dijk. We should be doing everything in our power to sign him permanently as whatever we spend on him we will make back and then some. We won't get better. Solberg Meling 🇳🇴 - This is the easiest choice on this list. Meling will be a free agent in the summer and he has already proved against us on multiple occasions that he is an absolute player! He can defend well and is a handful going forward too. Even scoring against us at Celtic Park. Meling is international team mates with Kris Ajer and is Norway's first choice left back. Greg Taylor is not Celtic quality and we should be aiming for better. We can get this lad on a free and coming from Norway, his wages will easily be affordable. Easy easy choice. Get this done! Fraser Forster 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 - Not gonna bother doing anything on him. One of the best keeper's Celtic has ever had. No brainer. Punt: Gordon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Hendry 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Bauer 🇦🇹, Miller 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Hayes 🇮🇪, Taylor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Arzani 🇦🇺, Morgan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Rogic 🇦🇺, Bayo 🇨🇮 (Loan), Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (If decent offer comes in) SQUAD 2020/21: GK: Forster 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, Bain 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Hazard 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 LB: Meling 🇳🇴 & Bolingoli 🇧🇪 CB: Benkovic 🇭🇷, Jullien 🇫🇷, Ajer 🇳🇴 & Simunovic 🇭🇷 RB: Frimpong 🇳🇱 & Elhamed 🇮🇱 CM: Brown 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, McGregor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Christie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Ntcham 🇫🇷, Soro 🇨🇮, Majer 🇭🇷, Henderson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Bitton 🇮🇱 LM: Oršić 🇭🇷 & Johnston 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 RM: Forrest 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Shved 🇺🇦 & Dembele 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ST: Edouard 🇫🇷, Klimala 🇵🇱, Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Afolabi 🇮🇪
