BRENDAN RODGERS has received a great boost ahead of next month’s Champions League qualifiers with the news Jonny Hayes should be fit and raring to go for the marathon of games in July to early August.
Hayes has been out for six months with a broken leg but his rehab as went very well and the player is in a position to start pre-season with Celtic later this month.
The Irishman will no doubt be involved in Celtic’s pre-season friendlies as he looks to get up to speed with everybody else.
Hayes has a fantastic chance to make a proper breakthrough into Brendan Rodgers’ squad this summers. With Patrick Roberts heading back to City and Musonda leaving early, it has opened up the field for Hayes, Christie and Morgan.
It will be interesting to see how it pans out, Jonny has yet to make a real impact at the club and will be determined to do so this season.
He certainly can add something different to the side.
How can a player yet to make a real impact be considered as a major boost!! He’s another squad player at best.
Really? Johnny Hayes is going to be the difference in the charge to the CL? That wins the ‘straw clutcher’ of the year award. Hayes should not be anywhere near Celtic Park unless he is working as a pot man in the Kerrydale. His signing is as much of a mystery as Comppers and I fully expect him to sign for someone else before the summer is out. This will allow him to end his career properly, not getting 15 minutes every month in League and Scottish Cup games
I don’t think that the article said anything like you suggest John. Nowhere did it say that he “would be the difference in the charge to the CL”. I will translate for you.
The article said that after certain players leaving, there’s an opportunity for Jonny Hayes to make his mark as he has yet to make an impact and will be determined to do so and add something different to the side. It also suggests that it will be interesting to see how this pans out.
Does this deserve your sarcastic response, where you put words and phrases in which are not there in the first place? To take part in reasoned discussion, pay attention to the facts.
