It will be interesting to see how Aiden gets on under a new manager.
Hopefully he will continue to learn and improve under new managers as his career developes.
Aiden has heaps of ability and hopefully we will see this reap its rewards in the coming years.
McGeady's 1st today
2nd goal
Good positioning for the 1st and the 2nd a cracker.
He also played a nice 1-2 with Fortune for McDonald's goal
Another goal and he will have matched last season total ;)
Lets hope he will soring more often.
Lets hope its not his first second and last of the season :eek:
TV3 have the Celtic Arsenal game on their schedule for Tuesday.
amazing what a new manager can do for a player. here's to many more
No videos, are they anywhere else....Sky Sports don't show them at allQuote:

McGeady looked a great player under Strachan as well albeit 2 seasons ago before the "run in".Quote:

Mowbray does seem to play a better brand of football so that will help Aiden.
Without doubt.Quote:

GOALS HERE. Aberdeen's was the best!

Haven't seen a Celtic match on in so many countries. Let's hope McGeady can boost is reputation.

RTE and ITV have the return leg.
Hopefully Darren O'Dea will also get to show his talents to the same tv audience. Maybe even Wilo Flood too but that is probably pushing it.
Course you have Eirebhoy, you just have some memory wipe out.Quote:

It's impressive for a pre qualifier.
Excellent performance from McGeady tonight. Hardly gave the ball away all game.
ya he looked good in fairness they double teamed him a bit, thought he look a big flabby when he took off his top.
He was brilliant tonight but too many times when he got forward there was a lack of options for him.I really think he is head and shoulders above anyone at Celtic now. For him to move onto the next level as a player I hate to say it but I think he needs to move to a bigger league
flabby? :DQuote:

Very good from McGeady especially the second half, about the only spark of quality going forward. He is on his game and may he bring it with him to our next outing.
I actually felt sorry for him tonight as he was the only player capable of doing anything creative for Celtic, and worked hard and intelligently for absolutely no reward.
Agreed, kind of similar to his last game for Ireland.Quote:

BBC Radio Scotland interview after the game tonight:
Quote:
Chick Young: Did Celtic impress you tonight?
Wenger: Yes, their energy and comitment was very good and McGeady was outstanding.
Chick Young: Is McGeady good enough to play in the English Premier League?
Wenger: Of course. But why do you want your best player to leave Scotland?
excellent performance. about time he bit the bullet and moved to the premiership.
Translation "They try hard, but they stink."Quote:

It really is. His career will just stagnate up there, and he has given enough to them. Bayern were interested last season, that would have been a fantastic move for him.Quote:

mcgeady got the highest pass completion % out of both teams on the night..himself and that new centre mid were the only real shining lights donati was brutal
Yeah, Donati was useless. It woudl be easier to pick players that did OK than ones that were way off their games.Quote:

Id definately have McGeady ahead of Nani, or Park too for that matter... or at other clubs Id have him ahead of Kalou, Benyoun,Kuyt,Riera,Babel,Eboue,and probably ahead of WalcottQuote:

yeah it definetely sounds like he wants to get one or the other, id say he'd prefer brown but wont pay the price celtic are after. don't want to see either leave, but it would be good to see how mcgeady would fair out at a better-than-average EPL team i supposeQuote:

Would only do him good I believe. I don't see him progressing much at Celtic. He's stagnated there over the years and would have been far better getting out while still young like McCarthy imo. He's not that young anymore.Quote:

Saying that, it's spurs so that kind of logic goes out the window what with the ganzee load of full backs purchased over the last couple of years.
Lennon and Modric are 1st choice on thw wings so McGeady would be starting on the bench
McGeady is just an outstanding player for Celtic. Does his best for Ireland but you have to take into account what he has to work with. There are a lot of players on the Irish team at present that are just not up to the Job at the moment.
Jay I agree but surely the same can be said about the Celtic players. In fact if pushed I'd say that even the Ireland team has more quality in it than the Celtic one. The problem with McGeady when playing for Ireland I believe is that for the most part he's up against far better opposition and we don't dominate games anywhere near as much as Celitc do on an average weekend.Quote:

Tottenham are weighing up moves for Celtic midfield pair Scott Brown and Aiden McGeady, with the Parkhead club valuing them at a total of £10m.
