Blue ROI Posted 10 November 2018 Posted 10 November 2018 Given that we are overloaded with defenders and likely to finish in mid table it's better for Benkovic to stay up in Celtic for the rest of the season. Chance at winning SPL and outside chance of Europa League knockout stages would be good for his confidence and development.

Benkovich is already a Leicester player, I can't see him wanting to stay in Scotland permanently, can you? Sure,he'll enjoy playing in front of a big crowd every other week and winning most games (and probably a couple of trophies this season) but, ultimately, he'll want to return to us and prove his worth is this league rather than push for a move to Celtic, surely?

Ian Nacho Posted 10 November 2018 Posted 10 November 2018 Maybe needed with all the injuries at the back. Only a suspension/injury away from really struggling.
baldeagle Posted 10 November 2018 Posted 10 November 2018 Doesn’t look like we have too many defenders now does it

Guest WarehamFox Posted 11 November 2018 Posted 11 November 2018 Only on the bench today! Strange one
mozartfox Posted 11 November 2018 Posted 11 November 2018 1 hour ago, WarehamFox said: Only on the bench today! Strange one Not really, Livingstone have a plastic pitch. Benko has a history of achilles problems. You will recall he was pulled from the Kilmarnock game during the warm-up as he felt a twinge. The pitch they have is apparently dangerous according to Steven Gerrard who lost a key player for a year with knee ligaments following their game there in August. So this is a case of Rogers not risking him be sent home crippled.
st albans fox Posted 11 November 2018 Posted 11 November 2018 I imagine we would have sent a message that his physical condition come January will help dictate how likely we are to allow his loan to continue .... them playing him on plastic, knowing his issues would not go down too well at the KP ......
Leicester_Loyal Posted 11 November 2018 Posted 11 November 2018 Just been subbed on due to an injury.
foxy boxing Posted 22 November 2018 Posted 22 November 2018 Brenden Rodgers has been quoted saying that Celtic will look to sign on loan defender Filip Benkovic on a permanent basis. Benkovic has been a mainstay in the celtic side making nine appearences and scoring one goal. Benkovic is on a season long loan although he does have a recall clause for January. really hope he gets a chance here if not sometime this season then next!.
The Doctor Posted 22 November 2018 Posted 22 November 2018 As if we're going to immediately sell him without having had any sort of crack here...
Foxxed Posted 22 November 2018 Posted 22 November 2018 If we sell a young promising defender who's happy on the ball, has Europa league and has excelled at Celtic and then give Morgan a one year extension I will be writing to the club and asking them to share the crack cocaine.

Ha... talk about trying to twist what Rodgers said. The Q&A he did it was pretty obvious he was resigned to him going, also stating Benkovic wanted to play in the prem.

mozartfox Posted 22 November 2018 Posted 22 November 2018 Brendan Rogers and some Celtic fans are quite frankly, deluded. Even if we did want to sell, they could not afford the fee or his wages. The days of Celtic being able to sign our players dissappeared long ago. I seriously hope he is recalled in January to put a stop to all this bollooks. Celtic Chat Forum think we are a bunch of mugs and if we agreed to this scenario, we would be.

Probably because the drug related garbage coming out of Celtic Park is causing contagion on FT. The apparently have a January transfer budget of 10m. You do the maths. Because a certain Portuguese Team had our Boxers down twice, they are going for hat-trick. just get him back soonest. He is good enough for us now.

Rodgers said nothing wrong... “Filip is here on a loan period and Leicester have the opportunity to take him back in January,” said Rodgers. “He is really happy here and Leicester let us have him for a reason – which was to come and get game time and prepare him for the Premier League next season. “The likelihood is that this is a very difficult deal but if there was an opportunity it was one we would look at for sure. “He is a big talent, but lots of these players from around Europe want to play in the Premier League. “He is at a big club with Leicester bit has come to a very big club here to get experience and is loving every second of it. We will have to wait and see what transpires over the next couple of months.”

So I think Rogers has said something wrong. It is disrespectful to LCFC. Recall him in Jan and give him a chance.

They could not afford him anyway. Other than they rate him its a none story really.

It's not bollox they would want him like West Brom want Barnes. Do you not have a dream car you would love but can't afford or similar.
