Virgo struggling?

[El Presidente]

Only came on as sub and according to the BBC

Celtic defender Adam Virgo was lucky not to concede a late penalty when the ball seemed to hit his hand in the area.

I thought he might struggle in such a big team at his age. Im sure he will be ok though - as we know hes an awsome player and was capable of premiership football. give him a while to settle in and he will be fine.

I would love to see Virgs do well especially as it would help Celtic regain the SPL, but on the other hand if he does have a mare of a time up there maybe teams wont be so eager to nick our best players from us!!

that don't sound like celtic getting away with a pen!

and rangers were denied a clear penalty that even hearts players admitted to!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Not really a surprise

 

[Sammy the seagull]

In my view virgo was never gona be good enough for celtic, and hes not good enough for the prem either. I think hes a very good championship player, maybe get into a team like wolves,reading ect

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

agree

 

[itszamora]

I feel Celtic have bought Virgo more for the long term, and if he develops then £1.5m could turn out to be a bargain for them.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

He is clearly not a gret player like some seem to think

 

[Silent Bob]

The abll hit his hand, ergo, he's crap. Right.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

The fact he isnt good enough means nothing to some....

 

[Marc]

he should've gone to Cowdenbeath

Based on one line of a match report?

 

[Silent Bob]

"Big Virgo played 40 minutes at centre back as well, coming on after McManus took a knock. Looked a little nervous but played ok."

There's a quote from someone who was actually at the match. Don't let that spoil your fun though.

Exactly. Im not convinced he will be a regular up there, certainly not this year, but if you havent even seen the game you cant comment

 

[Sammy the seagull]

Fair point but what ive seen of virgo i dont think hes good enough for celtic

 

[Skintagain 1983]

Me and the Mrs (a Celtic fan) still haven't managed to get along to Parkhead to see McVirgs.

I don't think anyone should be judged having played less than a full half as his major chance, plus a couple of 5 minute sub performances. Indeed, the Scottish press and some "fans" alike were calling for Strachan's head after just 2 games at the start of the season. Things are a bit different now...

A bit like the problems BZ has been having at West Ham, give the boys a decent run in the team, keep them fit, and I've no doubt they'll deliver.

 

[Uncle Buck]

as we know hes an awsome player and was capable of premiership football. give him a while to settle in and he will be fine.

Is he?

Competant yes, but awsome no.

In reality nobody really knows what his best position is.

like it or not you can't deny the fact that virgo saved our arses last season and was a standout plyer for us...........we don't appear to have found anyone of that ilk so far this season............
