Olivier is only explaining the facts

348

There’s a good half dozen players I would expect to be agitating for a move than Olivier Ntcham.  His interview in L’Equipe, where he regrets he did not move to Porto last summer and explains how he would blossom at Marseille, and generally, how he is too good for the other teams in Scotland.

The latter assertion may solicit some sympathy, although his timing is off.  We are days away from Champions League qualification and need those who are fit and experience to have their head on the job.

But this is the modern footballer.  They are not here because their Irish grannie told them tales about Charlie Tully.  Celtic provides lots of glory and money, but there are bigger paydays and all but the very few will chase the money, or, if we are being generous, test themselves in a tougher environment.

That’s football, Olivier is only explaining the facts.

  1. G’ mornin’ Celtic Quick News……………………

     

     

    This Dear Green Place will be my Go To for The Game as I may not get to a telly on time.

     

    Hope our esteemed commentators are poised for updates.

     

     

    NervousMoi? CSC

  2. Footage has emerged of the Tyrone team on their match bus singing ‘Come out ye Black & Tans’ as an Orange Parade passed their bus,as they were on their way home after the Cavan match last Saturday night.

     

    Tyrone GAA has apologised for incident. Bloody Hell Shocking.

  3. HOT SMOKED

     

     

    I was watching the closing stages of Australia v South Africa in the cricket World Cup. Two Aussies commentating, I was struck by how positive they were even though SA were well on top throughout. It was only really when mathematically impossible to win they accepted defeat. It’s a mindset I wish I had although compared to many on here I’m Mr Positive.

  4. As for the boul’ Bhoy / boy N’tcham…………….

     

     

    His comments ( as reported ) are unprofessional and unwise. He’ll have to learn additional “skills” to ply his trade and grow up a wee bit. He won’t be the first Incredible Sulk we’ve had to contend with……etc etc

     

     

    This managing lark is easy tho, eh!

     

     

    The Bhoy has QUALITY tho’…….for us to improve, be seen to improve and for us to grow as a team it’s the players of quality we need to keep.
