Shane Long

Celtic are in for him.

Complete BS

Virgil Van Dijk is looking to leave Southampton and Celtic have a sell on fee so something might be neg in this payment to let Long go on loan

i doubt scott sinclair is on 45 grand at celtic or anywhere near it. I dont see any reports linking him with celtic??

A few loan move rumours on twitter

He's hardly a superstar of a level that it's hard to believe Celtic would get him

Would he even get a game with a full strength team

Celtic fans would like you to believe Long's not good enough for their team of superstars- too big for him. The truth is Long's too big for Celtic.They could never afford the transfer fee, nor his wages (unless it was a loan move with his pay subsidised by Southampton).

Celtic have the likes of Lustig, Griffiths, Gordon (who came virtually came out of retirement to play for them) and the limited Forrest as first team players. None of whom would join a Premier League were they to leave. Long is a Premier League player for an eighth season in succession. They offered Mulgrew a new contract a year ago. He's now playing in League 1.

There's a lot of arrogance and an obvious false sense of their club's true status, where Celtic supporters are concerned.

Shane Long is a good player, but he is simply not as good a player as either Griffiths or Dembele. The real arrogance is in the EPL where clubs like Huddersfield earn far more from being relegated than Celtic would if they won the treble and advanced in the UCL.

hang on now. Shane long is a much much superior player to griffiths. That is no doubt at all. The only difference is griffiths might put the ball in the net more often but then shane has never played in the spl so his scoring might be on a par up there.

Griffiths is a different type player to Shane Long which people seem to be missing.
