He is on a par with Gary Naysmith and even I wouldn't claim he is world class. Naysmith was a lot better than Tierney imo. Quote
Herbert. Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I've never got the hype about him tbh I would say he was a similar level to Patterson, If someone pays 10M+ for him they have been ripped off. Quote
Whatever Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Says a man that thought away goals were crucial in a Europa league game. Tierney would get destroyed in England. Put him in a team that has to defend now and then and he’s toiling. Quote

Guest ToqueJambo Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Don;t like to talk down Scottish players but is the hype over Tierney because he maybe looks more like a footballer than the usual short arses we produce and already had the physique of an older player when he broke through. He has some speed and decent defending ability but he's not even close in attacking terms as Andy Robertson when it comes to crossing and bombing up and down the wing. I get that he's held his own as a youngster in our league, but so have lots of young players at other clubs. For Scotland and in Europe he's been nothing special apart from the odd game. Could say the same when Calum Paterson played great against Liverpool at 17. The obvious club to come in for him would be Leicester and it would probably be the best move for him. If Rodgers doesn't go for him if Ben Chilwell leaves, as the manager who knows him best, that would speak volumes. If Tierney is that good, signing him for 15m and selling Chilwell for twice that would surely be good business? Edited June 22, 2019 by ToqueJambo Quote
Beast Boy Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Just now, i wish jj was my dad said: Tierney is bigger but he's a pussy in comparison to Gary Tierney is a total wuss, Naismith was more skilful on the ball too imo. Quote
boag1874 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 If he has any ambition at all he’ll push for the move. A couple more bad injuries and he’ll have no chance of moving to a club like Arsenal, needs to take his chance now Quote

No-one bigger than Arsenal will come in for him if this rumour is even true. Man U will want proven quality, Man City, Spurs and Liverpool are way ahead, Chelsea can't sign anyone. If he's smart he'll do what Robertson did and just take a chance with any club in the EPL and if he is that good, he'll get a move and Celtic will get a big sell-on fee. That approach worked for Wanyama and van Djik. Edited June 22, 2019 by ToqueJambo Quote

Hømme Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 They're going to have a hell of a lot of victims to compensate in the near future so not surprising they are looking for top dollar for him. Good player but not Andy Robertson good. Quote
busby1985 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Perfect time for Tierney to sign a contract extension and claim he’s here for ten and Lennon convinced him to stay. The Celtic fans will love that. Bang average player over hyped cause he plays for one of the old firm. File under Hooper, Boruc and the rest. Quote
jambomjm74 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 If he was worth £15m he would have been at Leicester .... he isn’t and his ex manager knows it. Good spl player but like broonie not an epl player. Quote

BM1874 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I’ve aired this view many times but Tierney is just massively overrated and if it wasn’t for who he supports and plays for, it wouldn’t even be discussed.. ive never been impressed by him, he was so poor in the 4-0 game that he was hooked at half time having been taken for a ride all game 1-0 start of season he was ripped apart constantly and uche swatted him away like a fly when he tried to get near prior to Lafferty Goal the fact he is a chavvy wee ned, who makes a point of taking a prime seat in the Away end when he is on one of his numerous injury spells for their games, or that he goes to Celtic bars on his holiday in Celtic tops gives him a major break with their fans and increase their hysteria about him because he is “one of them” £10m is too much for him in my opinion as for the op yep pat Bonnar is a banker, if you replace the b with a W. celtic this, Celtic that, doesn’t know any non Celtic players and god help you if he has to try describe a Celtic defeat, it’s never that the other team deserve it, celtic were robbed or cheated. how and why he is an employed person on bbc sportsound really frustrates me, p**ck of a man Quote

Romulus Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Both the old firm have swarms of ex players who can’t wait to peddle and hype up literally anything about their clubs. The problem is the media lap it up and it’s pushed in our faces. Quote

jamboinglasgow Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I think Tierney has the ability to be a top player, but he has a long way to go before he can reach Robertson. The one thing these pundits, especially Bonnar, will never admit is that Tierney should have gone last season at the very latest to become the player they have hyped him to be. He stalled this season as he has got too comfortable at Celtic. Fans of clubs outwith the old firm know that there is a point when the player who comes through their youth ranks needs to move on, but for Celtic fans and pundits to admit that means they have to accept they are not the top of the ladder. Its why they got so angry at Rodgers going to Leicester, it was a dose of reality that clubs with history not as "illustrious" as theirs are a bigger option in modern football and they did not want to accept that. Tierney fits well with Celtic fans he is a Celtic fan but for the sake of his development he needs to move on otherwise he will only get near the Scotland first team if Robertson is injured or retires. As for claiming Arsenal are not a big enough club, the club with the 3rd most league wins in England, a stadium equal in size as theirs though almost on average sells out their ground for league matches, has a massive following world wide, has a great history, may not have won the European cup like Celtic, but have won the Cup winners cup, been in more European finals than Celtic, and is regonised as in the top 6 of the Premier league (missing out of the top 4 last season by a point.) Celtic fans and pundits need to get away from their arrogance and delusion. Quote
Shooter McGavin Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Few guys at work genuinely think he’s better than Robertson... Quote

jamtartan74 Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 Ach I’m not going to pretend like loads of others on this thread that he’s pish because of who he plays for, he’s a very good player in our league, but he needs to move to the premier league in England or elsewhere to become a great player. I hope he moves on but he seems the type to stay at Celtic, the money could sway him though. He must be sick of the Robertson comparison though ? Quote
