Originally published at: Davie Provan calls out Carl Starfelt; oddly questions whether Celtic boss signed him
Davie Provan has called out the performances of Carl Starfelt before oddly stating he didn’t think Ange Postecoglou even signed him. Starfelt is currently with the Swedish national team for upcoming games against Kosovo and Greece respectively. It comes after recent improvement in the Celtic centre-back’s displays. This was acknowledged by supporters after Sunday’s 2-1…
Usually agree with Davie ,but,this is just utter nonsense. Does he forget how much Julien is prone to mistakes even though he is a “ proper footballer”. ? Starfelt is becoming a scapegoat for the hard of thinking.
I think part of the reason for his welcomed improvement is down to Vickers taking the lead centre back role.
Perhaps Provan’s point is that Starfelt isn’t currently an obvious leader. But that might come.
The more options we have in each position the better.
It was stated that we had tried to get Starfelt last season hence the reason Proven may have stated this, to be honestly he is similar to lustik when he first arrived i used to think this guy cant kick the ball cleanly or rarely got a decent cross beyond the first defender and he looked shaky and rushed just like Starfelt.
i think he is slowly improving as it has been harder for him too with us having no defensive left back and at times defensive left midfield.
