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.
Stoke City have had a pivotal week, marked by reflections on the club’s past, present developments, and aspirations for the future. Despite the international break, the club has been busy, with players traveling, insights from former legends like Tony Pulis, and significant updates on Stoke’s financial and operational strategies.
The team faces challenges as Wouter Burger will miss the next Championship game against QPR due to suspension, with other key players like Ben Gibson and Andrew Moran walking a disciplinary tightrope. Meanwhile, Stoke continues to adapt under head coach Narcis Pelach, who has emphasized nutrition, video analysis, and double training sessions to improve performance. His leadership, alongside Sporting Director Jon Walters’ restructuring efforts, aims to break the club’s cycle of mid-table finishes.
Off the field, Stoke has announced plans for a state-of-the-art £30 million training facility, signaling their commitment to returning to the Premier League. This facility will rival some of the best in English football, supporting both senior and academy teams. Additionally, Stoke City Women are in remarkable form, riding an eight-game winning streak as they prepare for a critical match against Nottingham Forest.
In other news, club legend Mike Pejic has been crowned national over-70s taekwondo champion, and former players Asmir Begovic and Robert Huth have shared fond memories of their time under Tony Pulis. On the financial side, analysis by Kieran Maguire highlights the frustrations of fans, pointing to the club’s expenditure not aligning with performance since their relegation from the Premier League.
This blend of ambition, challenge, and nostalgia showcases a club striving to move forward on solid ground while honoring its rich history.
Even Robert Huth, one of football’s toughest defenders, wanted Ricardo Fuller on his side at Stoke City. Known for their intimidating presence, the Stoke squad under Tony Pulis struck fear in the hearts of opponents, but Fuller’s strength set him apart. “He was strong even when he wasn’t angry,” Huth said. “No one messed with Ric.”
Later, Huth joined Leicester City and encountered a different kind of powerhouse in N’Golo Kante. Initially underwhelmed by Kante’s small stature, Huth quickly realized his mistake. “In the first training session, he just kept nicking the ball,” Huth recalled. “The harder you tackled him, the more he thrived on it.” Kante’s relentless energy, unmatched ball-winning ability, and nimbleness left teammates in awe, proving that size isn’t everything on the pitch.
Eddie Howe is bracing for another unpredictable January transfer window at Newcastle United, managing fans’ expectations by suggesting that major signings may be unlikely. Over the past year, the club’s limited transfer activity and the departures of young talents like Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh have left fans frustrated. Despite well-known gaps in the squad—particularly at center-back and right-wing—Howe remains cautious, emphasizing the challenges of making impactful January signings amid financial constraints and an increasingly competitive Premier League.
Recent reports indicated that Southampton refrained from parting ways with Russell Martin due to a reported £12 million compensation fee. However, it’s now suggested that […]
