Spellczech Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Remember when we signed the next Gheorghe Hagi? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/h/heart_of_midlothian/6233813.stm Perhaps we should've signed the next Hagi instead? https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48649868 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who were both supposed to be the next best thing... Shows you can never know how a player will develop until later on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting though that young Hagi plays for a club owned and managed by his father! He may make his family more money in his first transfer than his illustrious father made in his whole career!

Whatever Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Iirc, there was a 2 page spread in the Daily Record with the ignorant and nauseating headline ‘From poverty to Paradise’ because Celtic had been heavily linked with him. Unsurprisingly there wasn’t quite the same coverage after we signed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Loved his old man as a player, lazy, arrogant, and capable of outrageous skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesy1874 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Loved Hagi when he was playing, was one of my favourite players at the time. Could pull off the ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Copil has hung his boots up and looks like Kostadinov maybe should ! Like you say, guess its always a bit of a gamble when "plucking" these lads from relative obscurity !
