Goss Watch

Another goal and man of the match performance last night from Goss.

He cost us £500k on a 3year deal.
So we could sell him to Rangers for £2 million plus a 10% sell on clause.
Then use the money to negotiate pay increases for those we want to keep.
We have plenty out of contract come the summer.

If the lad is happy there
Let him go there,he seems to feel at home at rangers
Holloway doesn't deserve to keep him if he doesn't want to give him a chance in our team

Didn't have the best game today, was pretty anonymous then was at fault for Celtic's winning goal with poor defending. Got subbed.

with us moving to a 442 formation, this may suit him better for next season. It must be very daunting playing the Old Firm game at such a young age.

Interesting comments.
I hope the lad does well in his time at Rangers, and no harm to him - but he was poor yesterday (the second worst player on the pitch after Celtic's Boyata, who was playing his first match after some weeks out). The pace and combative nature of the game found him out. He can certainly ping/strike a ball, and he is best when he has plenty of time to do so, which against the likes of the lower-level SPL teams he will get. But against Celtic, and to a lesser extent Aberdeen, you see why he won't get into a Championship team - lack of time and space, plus insufficient tackling ability. And why his learning may be limited - he won't learn too much against the likes of Partick, Dundee, Hamilton, etc. because he won't be challenged.

Also, while saying that the general standard of mid/lower level SPL teams is league one level, that is not the case for all teams. The SPL is like most 'second tier' European leagues - e.g. Holland, Portugal, Belgium, etc, with 3 levels within that division - one, perhaps two, teams who would be mid-level EPL teams, a handful more who would make the Championship, and the rest.
I see all the SPL matches every week. Celtic are medium EPL standard - sure, nowhere near the likes of Man City or Utd, etc.; but better than quite a few in the bottom half of the table. Dembele, Brown, Tierney, Armstrong, McGregor, Roberts are all EPL standard. That's how they went unbeaten for 69 games; and how despite playing not particularly well yesterday and with 10 players they still beat their nearest rivals.

Celtic would do well in the championship and probably as good as a team like villa at the moment
I would see them as a yo yo team like West Brom and Newcastle if they were in the premier league
I watch a bit of Scottish footie and teams like hearts look pretty good with lots of young players
However some grounds look like my local park like Partick thistle

I wouldn't disagree with rosco bosco as he's the main man out there and knows his stuff
