Celtic last broke their transfer record four years ago this week when they paid PSG £9m for then-20-year-old striker, Odsonne Edouard. Yesterday’s deal to acquire Cameron Carter-Vickers from Tottenham will almost certainly exceed this. The initial £6m valuation will inevitably rise to £10m.
Cameron was our best defender last season and without him, the job of retaining the title, or competing in the Champions League, would look significantly more difficult. He becomes a permanent Celtic player at 24, having spent four years on loan in the lower leagues in England before a temporary year at Celtic as part of Ange Postecoglou’s new regime.
He is 17 days older than Odsonne. In asset management terms, he is a generation ahead of where the striker was when he arrived here from PSG. In age terms, Cameron is closer to where Christopher Jullien was when he came to Celtic as a 26-year-old. This means a lot of scouts have had a look at the player and none in the English top-flight have moved for him. We can, therefore, hope he could be a mainstay in the Celtic team for some years to come.
The defence still needs work but we have paid a solid foundation this week. Welcome to Celtic, Cameron.

Cúl eile, Parrott
Cúl eile, Parrott.
Oooft wit a doin’
Aw naw man,ye see that free kick from Kelly last night.That’s goat the pit him the 20 mullion class,man.
Him an Basssey,45 mullion minimum.
Scotland truly are absolute pish. I would not be surprised if Armenia beat them next week.
wit a brasser Scotland!
Just put on telly, to see Scotland are get beat 2-0. Wasn’t even aware that they were playing
Thought Tony Ralston was caught out badly at the 2nd
Taxi for Clarke.
Dinosaur manager
Big Shane bossing it!
AR does his best work in the final third when he is charging up the park and knocking players about but dearie dearie how poor is his defending.
Just saw the 2 goals.
Ralston, very poor for second goal
Teacht ar Eirinn!
I thought Hendry should have been more aware at 2nd….just completely unaware of the situation…..possibly they left it for each other ….poor all round……christie having one of his celtic days games
jesus ROI are winning a footie game
Blaming Ralston for that goal ??? The only striker has dropped off so what was the three centre halves doing ? Obviously the Bhoy ran from Ralstons area .. thought big Craigy Bhoy running off his line also made Parrotts mind up … so in my opinion ex-Celts Hendry & Gordon more at fault than our Tony Bhoy

Good effort. But, it’s
Éire abú or even Éire go brách
Cúl iontach. Obafemi
Whit a strike !!!!
holy ship
Wit a goal!
What a strike !!
Clarke is toast tbh!
Tom English can shove that up his behookie
Jeez Louise! Billy Gilmour on to save the day. Can’t see Scotland making a major tournament ever again. Instead, we will slowly slide down the co-efficient charts to end up with the Moldovas and Andorras. Whit an embarrassment.
Surely Che Adam can get at least a shot on target
Paddy Power special 8/1
Parrot, Obefwmi & Adam … 1+ shot on target
Didn’t expect both Irish boys to actually score
ALMORE
Schoolbhoy effort but you get my drift!
St Tams 6.09pm
GFTB 6.08pm
St Tams … There is a first … we both agree :-)
Clarke’s days are hopefully number. Utterly clueless. Why is Christie still in the park, especially after a booking ?
With the game gone, you would think Clarke would acknowledge he effed it up, and at least try Stewart and a few others.
Let’s face it Scotland have no decent defenders apart from 3 left backs, Hanley, Hebert,McKenna and of course they’re keeping Souttar out the team so how shite he is
Hope the Irish fans don’t buy into the fake tartan army chumminess (don’t they know they hate the Irish and even more so if your Irish and catholic ) taken from my most recent experience of them and I was born in Falkirk
Che Adam subbed with 30mins to go … that’s why paddy power is a millionaire and betting is a mugs game
Away to see what paddy is offering on the Italy game
Is there no end to this folly?
John McGinn. Supposed to have been a replacement for Broonie but isn’t fit to lace his boots.
Over hyped mediocrity but can do no wrong with the moronic and embarrassing Tartan Army and apparently the SMSM .
Celtic dodged a bullet there.
Hendry has more of an excuse than Tony for that 2nd goal. Henry , at least can say he was double teaming the players nearest the ball. Tony cannot assume that Henry will pick up that run, especially as he has no one else to mark.
Tony must run with the scorer until he is sure that Henry has seen him.
Hendry not Hebert (whoever he is bet he’s shite too)
3 left backs, Robertson, KT and at a stretch GT
And he waits until 60 minutes. WTF is so sacred about the 60 minute mark that managers of games will wait until then, regardless of circumstances, before making changes that are so obviously required?
if in doubt, always always find a way to be negative about a celtic player, an ex celtic player, anyone connected to a celtic player, and neil lennon, who is cutting about glasgow this afternoon.
