QuoteBarnsley supporting mate of mine reckons he is in the verge of signing for them. Anyone heard anything ?
think there's a uefa rule that a player has to be at the club for 2 years to be included in the B-List and anyone who has signed more recently has to be fully registered, presumably as a foreign player to play (because they won't have clocked up enough time within scotland to be considered nationally homegrown)
25 man squad consisting of:
Foreign Players: Up to 17
Players Developed Within Nation: 4+
Players Developed Within Club: 4+
Minimum 3 keepers

Also linked with a loan to Sunderland scoring to reports on Twitter

The Scottish Sun reference a potential loan move to both here. Would be no harm. Sunderland could be a difficult place to go though.
Lennon confirms that Connell is likely to be heading out on loan in his press conference. Also hangs Irish qualified (but unlikely to declare for us) Mikey Johnston out to dry over an injury he picked up playing last night - very poor form.
Came on for the 2nd half in Celtic’s preseason game v Hibs
Getting positive reviews on kerrydale forum.
just hope Lennon gives him a chance

Praises being sung by Celtic fans who are impressed with his passing and added physicality.

Some one on that Celtic Forum put together Connells highlights. Meaningless friendly, but he looks like he has a touch of class
Honestly we need to get this guy involved in senior squad fully ASAP. I don't care whether Lennon is going to let him rot or not we need to give him a cap, and a platform for a move if he can't make the breakthrough at Celtic. Looks premium grade.
Watching those clips there and I can't understand why he went to the SPL. Between the hair, the touch, the vision and way he passes he looks every inch a Serie A player.
Its a bit odd that he has gone from being in the 1st team at Bolton to just being another youth player at Celtic. I dont think its a season where Celtic will take many chances on young players given that they are going for the 10 in a row.
Could he have any physical problems that stopped him from playing much this last year ?
That he's too much of a footballer for Lennon?Originally Posted by seanfhear
He did have a couple of injuries to be fair, but even when fit he wasn't getting a sniff.
Nedved?
I was wondering who he reminded me of and you have just given me the answer!
Modric, surely.
It impressed me that he is constantly looking to break the line, his first thought is can I move this ball forward. Maybe Lennon just can't understand why someone would want to pass the ball forward, and not merely sideways or backwards...
Why not call him into the u21s see how that goes
Was he not involved with the under 21s? I would also say a lot of the central midfield options at that level have had more experience. Molumby and Knight have played full seasons in the Championship. Jack Taylor at Peterborough. Coventry had a limit time at Lincoln. And Connell had no under 23 level like a lot of others. I'm sure he'd be on the radar for a call-up if he played some competitive club games.
no as per wiki up until U19s
