Is this man’s future at Celtic?

Marvin Compper. What sort of thoughts come to mind when I mention that name?

Keeping it clean, I think what were we doing? But, at the same time, I also wonder whether we’ve been too quick to pass judgement on the player.

Surely, we’d have signed him for a reason but, then again, Brendan Rodgers did sign Oussama Aissaidi for Liverpool and look how that went.

Anyway, he’s still a player for us believe it or not and former Bhoy Andreas Hinkel thinks he could still have a career here.

As quoted by the Evening Times, the former Celtic defender said:

“The big thing for Marvin will be that he gets a good pre-season in. He has huge experience and he is a very intelligent player. He thinks about the game which can make the difference but at the same time you also need your body to be 100% in order to be able to do what you want it to.”

The Verdict

Not for me, I’m afraid.

He might have a good pre-season but plenty have before and not actually done it when it matters.

We’ve got to improve things defensively in terms of options but I think we’re better off signing some players instead of giving this man a long-term chance.
