okay let's talk Celtic H they're closing in on a deal for Arna Engles how happy have you been with what they've done this window um yes I mean sort of relatively if they get Engles over the line I think there's talk about Austin trustey the Sheffield um United Center back they signed um a young talented left back from from Barcelona Alex Waller um it's it's replacing Matt O'Reilly and Matt O'Reilly was a brilliant player for for Celtic last season um he the he was the top scorer goals and assists his all round performance and you know there was that was the strong talk over the summer that Matt O'Reilly would eventually go um but um you know they have to replace him and that's that's a difficulty we saw the Champions League draw yesterday and Celtic haven't got a bad draw actually uh in that allbe at the performance levels haven't been there in recent seasons in the Champions League Anor Engles comes or looks like he's coming in and everything I've seen and read about him he's clearly uh a talented player Celtic are their model is they are a uh a Development Club but um but there's still sort of a a gaping hole at this moment in time because players have to get up to to the speed and the level of um of Matt O'Reilly who was Sensational last season so in you know in in the right now um you know that's uh that that's Brendan Rogers that's what got to really work on I suspect Bernardo who they signed over the summer will uh will start at the weekend in the in the big game against uh Rangers and he had little cameos last season where he did it okay but uh but O'Reilly was so special last season that um that this he's certainly going to leave a a big hole in that Celtic Midfield yeah well Chris let's finish by talking about the game that you mentioned there the first old firm match of the season it's live on Sky Sports on Sunday what Jama make of things going into this one are Celtic the clear favorites yeah look as you all know Joe I mean Celtic Celtic are the clear favorites but you you know you you just don't know in these games um Philip clemont is I think under a fair bit of pressure in terms that he's he's never beaten Celtic as as Rangers manager uh last season I think the the games were other than the sort of the moral Victory game where Rangers Drew they were decided by the odd goal uh Brendan Rogers record against uh Rangers is phenomenal Celtic have had a great pre-season uh they've had a a really comfortable start of the Season they've played some great football um but you know I think they'll be Rangers players and the manager they will have a you know feel that they have a point to prove they'll be the disappointment of getting knocked out of the Champions League um of course but um you know they can look back at last season and maybe you know think that the games were uh were close and uh I mean who knows this is Celtic park there are no away fans in I suspect Celtic to Edge it I don't think as much as I'd like it to be a cricket score I don't think it will be a cricket score though and um I think it'll be quite a close one Chris always good to get your thoughts thank you for joining us thank you
