Gershon: Slow start at Celtic

Gershon: Slow start at Celtic

The Israeli defender arrived at Celtic in January on loan from Standard Liege but has only made two appearances, both in the Highlands.

Gershon scored on his debut in a 3-1 victory over Inverness but a thigh injury hit him before he returned to the line-up in a three-man Celtic defence against Ross County on Saturday.

The 24-year-old was replaced by Kris Commons on 65 minutes with the scores level before County took control and secured a late 3-2 win.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon admitted his side looked "ragged" at the back at times on Saturday and Gershon is looking to get on top of his game.

"I've had a bit of bad luck as since I came as I've had two small injuries that took me two weeks to recover from, so this put me on the back foot," Gershon told the Celtic View.

"But now I'm starting to get fit. The most important thing for me is to stay fit as the two games I've played is very far from what I can do in terms of my skills. But I'm sure I can come back to the level I know I'm capable of.

"I feel good. I need more confidence that comes with playing more minutes and then I am sure I can come back to the Rami I know.

"I can give you a lot of excuses now - a new country, a different style of football and injuries - but no-one cares about that.

"I have to take my chances and be good all the time. This is how I think. And this is the goal I have in my head now."

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!

hat is arguably the least inspiring England I have ever seen. There is not a single name in that list that makes me think I might actually want to watch this team. Not a one.
