News CELTIC SWOOP FOR SHITTU – MORE GRATUITOUS GOSSIP By Trialist The Scottish Sun spotted Gord and Mrs Gord at Tuesday night's dreich-fest, Watford versus Sheffield United (best League in the world? Yer having a laugh), and decided the Celtic Manager was not present to study tactics but was there to sneak a peek at Watford defender Danny Shittu. According to the Scottish Sun: “Celtic gaffer Gordon Strachan wants Watford stopper Danny Shittu to be his new Bobo Balde.” Nothing wrong with the ‘old' Bobo Balde in my humble opinion, but the Sun continues: “Nigerian-born Shittu is a dead ringer for Hoops hardman Balde – who could leave Parkhead in the New Year.” Now I can well understand Gordon Strachan sanctioning the sale of fringe players such as Stephen Pearson and Alan Thompson, but defenders of which there is a scarcity at Celtic Park ? Surely not? Nevertheless, the Scottish Sun believes Strachan is “weighing up a bid” (not a swoop) for 6ft 3', 26-year old Danny Shittu who joined Watford from QPR for £1.6m last summer. BBC Scotland's resident japester (or fanny) Tam Cowan will be thrilled if this deal comes off.
I'd slap a £5,000,000 price tag on him if anyone wants him! We'd be mad to sell up though because he has the potential to be a top centre back in this league! To be fair i'd rather play in the championship than scottish prem! The standard of scottish prem is worse than the championship, possibly league one!
True...but if he's under contract here so we don't have to sell him cheaply which is a good thing...i think we could get £5,000,000 for him if he wanted to go and play in a pub league!
Agree with you Nick. No chance of him leaving, but if there was I'd put a whacking great price tag on him and see where his ambition really lies. To be honest though the whole things sounds like a typical media 2 + 2 = 5 scenario.
I saw replays of the game monday and gordon was there with his wife i dont know why but surely not for shittu he came on as striker so gordon didnt see the best off him but keep shittu he will become a vital member of the squad.
