De-Ro to Celtic (Pure Speculation)

[zeelaw]

I looked to see if this has its own thread but couldn't find any just a few posts.

*EDIT is not as hot as I thought, sorry to waste time

*deleted old link where de-ro was linked in 2008... thanks tarnado

I love reading the post by the guy who is apparently a TFC season ticket holder bashing MLS and claiming Dero would really struggle in the supposedly vastly superior SPL.

....that first link (and the FSC report) is from rumours about a move back in 2008

Not sure it would be a very good move as far as playing at a better level. Celtic is a better team than any MLS team but the league as a whole is at best equal to MLS. Celtic bombed out in European play this year getting knocked out of the 3rd CL qualifying round and then subsequently getting knocked out of the 4th Europa League qualifying round. That would leave only the games against Rangers at a level higher than he is playing in MLS. If it is just a loan then it is obviously better than sitting around doing nothing until the MLS season starts again but a transfer to a lower table team in one of the top 6 or 7 European leagues would be a better move in my opinion. I think in SPL he could probably get away with a lot of the bad habits he currently gets away with in MLS. Possibly he is too old to change but if he is ever going to get his playing ability up to that needed for the international game, he needs to play in a league where he is required to play a more complete game instead of depending solely on making a few impressive athletic moves per game.

**** thianks, oops... must of been just rumours over twitter and from my buddy over bbm

Isn't the rumour in the first link from 2008? unfortunately, the 2nd one wouldn't work for me so I couldn't compare.

EDIT: slow internet means I was badly beaten to responding to this rumour!

There was also a rumor of DeRo going to FC Copenhagen back in 2008 as well I believe.

I think he would do well at a club like Celtic, because he would play against talent similar to MLS, and his bad habits wouldn't be too much of a detriment. It wouldn't do nothing for the nats except show the country we have a player at a big club.

Best for DeRo would be to stay with TFC, and be signed to a DP spot already!
