Need to hope Balogun stays fit!

When can we make changes to the European squad mate? Are we stuck with just 2 centre-backs until after the groups?

Yep it's a massive hit for us. 

Goldson and Balogun for now. Need more of the Balogun that bossed the taigs

If Helander is out for a while we should probably look at buying another CB in January as moving forward we cannot be utilising Balogun & especially Simpson as first choice CB’s.

Maybe that Doekhi from Vitesse.

Maybe see Leon King also get a chance. Read he's meant to be a talent.

In the future yeah but he’s only 17 and apparently needs to develop physically before he’s ready to be a CB at our level.

CB is probably the one position where physical development is an absolute must.

In that case yeah we'll probably look at getting a new CB in the January window.

Hopefully it’s wont be another Simpson/Worrall type player. We need players who will actually improve us.

We MUST win the league this year and if we don’t invest where we need to then we are risking letting the scum back into the title race and ultimately loosing out on £30 Million pounds.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

Goldson back and Helander out for the foreseeable. Time for others to step up. Balogun was motm against scum when playing at RB. McCrorie came in as keeper and did a great job.

We have a strong squad and it's time for others to stake their claim to a starting slot.

Does Katic have a recall option?

I have my concerns over our defence and midfield tomorrow night. Not worried about our front line as Alfie will do what he does in europe and ragdoll whoever he's up against

They could have been without their two Brazilians(key players) as well if not for the Scottish government..

Crazy that they will be allowed in but supporters that got their vaccine outside of Scotland won't.

Come January he’ll surely have 10-12 weeks football under his belt though.

Went off injured in the B team game last night🙈

When you could legally deny entry to players into the country and give then special exemption without giving a legit reason... Only in Scotland. 

Why is Hagi still in limbo and not given the same special exemption yet?

[CR3 12,680]

That’s me only just seeing that big Dembele dollars isn’t playing, that’s huge tbh because that dicks been in good form for them.

Because he tested positive

Well aware these players are in the Lyon squad but the Scottish Government had agreed to let three Lyon players – all of whom travelled to Covid-19 red-list countries during the international break – make the trip to Glasgow.

Specifically, this relates to Brazilian international duo Bruno Guimarães and Lucas Paquetá as well as Zimbabwean striker Tino Kadewere.

Thanks Sturgeon
