Celtic Complete Double Deal for Aaron Mooy & Moritz Jenz | Transfer Show

Chris is such a good listen…..me and him r very similar in age so a lot of what we says resonates…..he said at end about us building from a position of strength and said didn't do that when we did 9-we never did it in 2003 after seville and never pushed for Rodgers….these past few windows have been unprecedented….great show as always lads

Finding it difficult to join Chris in his excitement for either the players signed today, or the net spend of £9m over three transfer windows (did he really say that?)

While I don't think Mooy is an outrageously poor signing, his profile has imo relatively few pluses in terms of the profile a lot of fans were hoping for in terms of our next midfield addition. The general train of thought on our priority for the midfield was a tall, athletic, defensively orientated player that could break up opposition play & help defend set pieces due to us hemorrhaging height with our outgoing players such as Ajer, Edouard, Bitton, Jullien & Scales. Hence the excitement earlier in the window around our links to Vicinius Souza.

A 31 year old 5'7" mid does not address this, if anything draws down the average height of our already short team that regularly concedes goals at set pieces

Mortitz Jenz profile, while certainly boosting our average height, does not appear in any way to have a CV worthy of unseating our current central defensive partnership that operates in the Scottish Premiership, never mind in anyway ready for the Champions League.

Both individuals, and the nature of their transfers, one a free agent and the other a loan, are pretty uninspiring, and suggest we've missed out on higher profile targets.

I expect Mooy to be more of a 6, given his age. CalMac will push up. I hope this is the case. Want to see McGregor do his best work there.

Aaroon mooy will be the man!

Imho his ovation Vs Blackburn Rovers was very mixed.

I think they're both shocking signings by the club tbf, a 12 month loan deal for a defender who's agent has been pushing to get him a move here since last year even though he had a shocker of a season and then Mooy, a guy turning 32 with no pace or and no energy anymore, but he was free so give him 12 months as well. They're not here because they fit the system, they're here because they're available and cheap. They do nothing for us in terms of CL football.

Think last time that was done was Joe Hart and McCarthy

Hi Paul, good stuff again. Regarding Mooy, you might find he will be the player who will anticipate Kyogo's moves. Mooy has incredible vision in terms of identifying opportunities.

Have you created a better first 11 who finished last season ?

Come on the hoops cos Glasgow green and white
