Jason Denayer played his first senior football during his 2014-15 loan season at Celtic. Before that season ended, he was a full Belgian international. We tried to retain him, but parent club Manchester City wanted him to go elsewhere.
There followed a season at Galatasaray, then Sunderland (where he played central defence, full back and central mid), before going back to Galatasaray on loan last season. His last appearance for Belgium was in the quarter finals of Euro 2016, a defeat to Wales.
While City would not loan Jason in 2015 they sold us Dedryck Boyata instead. Dedryck made a 45-minute cameo appearance for Belgium as a teenager in 2010 but didn’t play for his country again until near the end of his first season at Celtic. Belgium were preparing for Euro 2016 at the time but decided against his selection.
While Jason drifted out of the national team picture as he dodged around Europe on an enormous wage from Manchester City, Dedryck is in Russia. He has earned less money than Jason since leaving Manchester City, but his achievements are far greater.
These things matter at this time of the year. Brendan Rodgers and Peter Lawwell will speak to players and agents and will relay this narrative. Come to Celtic, become a better player, win things, and gain international recognition.
Jason has two years left on his Manchester City contract, when he will be 24, but he needs to find another Celtic to put some wind beneath his wings, if he is to make it to the top.

My son was telling me about that last night he plays with the trialists in amateur footy, he too is amazed that this is allowed to happen apparently its not allowed in the opposite direction.
Rumours abound that at least one of the trialists is paid by his amateur team!!

A guy i work with plays with Girvan he told me it’s right enough about the boy playing amateur getting paid , i believe he ‘s on more than some guys in the junior game ! I think Girvan asked the SJFA about the trialist thing and were told Troon could do it because it was a league game , but it was a play off over 2 legs so sounds more like a cup tie to me , but to be honest Girvan never played well in the 2 games

BMCUW, picks the country of his birth to win the World Cup and it pains him to do so – aye right ?
deutschlandcsc ?? ???????
Picking Germany pains me because I want Belgium to win it.
Picking Neymar is based on the teams Brazil face in the groups,and pains me because I’d rather the Golden Boot went to a proper footballer.

Yes my son says he is a cracking player one of the best he ever played against but he continually knocks back offers from senior and junior teams it all seems very odd.
It seems there are 3 or 4 teams in the Glasgow amateur leagues paying players.
I’ve been to Germany several times and have always found the German people to be very friendly and helpful. Great place for a holiday. Like Jamesgang, I also like the way the Germans play football. I hope they do well but I’m disappointed that BMG’s Lars Stindl didn’t make their squad. To be fair, he lost form in the second half of the season but he’s a great player.
Don’t the Sevconians ever get fed up with the endless stream of people telling them how wonderful Gerrard will be and/or the players they have signed?
After years of being fed the same stuff, day after day, surely one or two of them realise that it’s all bull.
Mea culpa
I’d a laugh at some guff this morning, in which some Ex England player was amazed at a magical amazing extra 10% at training by tbe Great One.
Or in other words the Great One , wasn’t routinely applying himself.
The Huns will lap it up.

They were much nicer without the trees on top of them!
But houses can be rebuilt. no one was hurt, and at the end of the day, that is what matters
