Squirrelhumper Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Kiltie a stand out in that team. Playing every week and scoring a fair few too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulo2576 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 What's happened to the guy Calvin Miller for Celtic? Thought he was supposed to be the hot thing down at parkhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noctonjock Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yeah wasn't calvin miller supposed to be the best prospect at 17 in Europe .might be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Too many people are gullible and believe what they read in these glossy football magazines that so and so is going to be a star or base their opinion on a player based on one good game for a national youth team. We should be careful not to put too much pressure on these guys or expect too much from them at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamntg Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 In one hand I think it's great that Celtic and Rangers are investing in their youth teams and I'm sure the boys are getting good training there. On the other hand, will they ever get near the first team? Unlikely, especially at Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, will they ever get near the first team? Unlikely, especially at Celtic. Celtic are poor at the moment so if they're good enough I'd expect them to play. Aidan Nesbit seems quite a prospect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapperone Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Saw Nesbit play against Bosnia, Belgium and the Czechs a year or so back and thought he was a standout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norsefox Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Did anyone see Tierney's goal v Hearts U19's this week? Outrageous. He playing for both the u19s and the senior side? Where have all these promising left backs come from all of a sudden? Pity we can't move them into the centre, though I did see Harry Souttar making the bench for Dundee United recently. I heard he had even more promise than his brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More promise and a few more inches. John will never be centre half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er yir macaroon Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 More promise and a few more inches. John will never be centre half I'd like John Souttar transferred to a club that has clear idea where he should play. For me he's a midfielder.

adamntg Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) I'd like John Souttar transferred to a club that has clear idea where he should play. For me he's a midfielder. John Souttar has a lot of great qualities. Unfortunately he's a good enough header to be a central defender and he's not got the engine or the tackling to be a midfielder. He doesn't seem to have much idea what's involved in being a right back. He'll probably sign a pre-contract for Celtic in January so it'll be somebody else's problem.

It's aggression he seems to lack. He's so good on the ball, so hopefully someone can work out what's best for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Somewhat shocked that Zak Jules still in the picture.... at the U17's few years back, apart from the Germany game, he did not look anything special and was clearly only in the squad because he was a teenager built like Mike Tyson in his prime.

Don't think he played against Portugal in the opening game, but then played against Germany where he muscled his way through the game and looked alright, but then got ripped a new one in the semi's against the Netherlands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
