Sheffield Wednesday duo, Pierce and Shea Charles, played pivotal roles in Northern Ireland’s promotion to League B of the UEFA Nations League on Monday night. Despite a frustrating 2-2 draw against Luxembourg, which saw them squander a 2-0 lead, the point was enough to secure top spot in Group 3, as Bulgaria’s 1-1 draw with Belarus ensured Northern Ireland’s advancement. Shea, again captaining the side, provided an assist for Isaac Price’s opening goal, while his younger brother, Pierce, experienced a more challenging night, unable to prevent two quick goals from Luxembourg. However, both gained invaluable international experience from the match. Meanwhile, in England’s U21s fixture against the Netherlands, James Beadle made several key saves, though his side was held to a 1-1 draw. Across the Atlantic, Di’Shon Bernard was named in Steve McClaren’s XI for the second leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal, hoping to help his side overturn a 1-0 deficit against the USA.

Chris Sutton’s Bold Call: Sign Miller for Celtic, Retain Kuhn, and Leave Rangers in the Dust!

16/11/2024 Raymond 0

Celtic should consider signing Lennon Miller in January, but there’s no reason to sell Nicolas Kuhn at this stage. Miller, one of the top young talents in Scotland, has impressed with his performances for Motherwell and is clearly a player for the future. However, with Celtic’s strong midfield depth, it’s unlikely he’d feature as a regular starter right now. A smart move would be for Celtic to sign him and loan him out to continue his development.

On the other hand, Kuhn’s future is secure at Celtic for the moment. Despite interest from clubs, his performances, particularly in the Champions League, have cemented his place as one of the top players in Scotland. Celtic is in no rush to sell, especially with the financial stability provided by their European success. Kuhn’s time for a big move will come, but for now, he should continue his progress at Celtic, where he’s playing in Europe and competing for silverware.
