With around £8million to start with i knew i couldnt pull in the major players so decided mostly for youth. James rodriguez from Banfeild was a major coup especially with Milan sniffing round i knew i had to offer him a good contract and persuade him that Celtic would be better for his growth into becoming a World Star. I also Signed Verratti, Castaginos and Thiago from Barca for just under £1mil. I decided to sell Mark wilson, Willo flood to wigan and Marc Crosas for £2.5million also to Wigan. This money i put away for January if needed. January came and with my main striker Fortune cracking ribs and facing a lenghty sidelines spell i scoured the market for a replacement and found one in an unknown player called Gian from brazillian team Santos. He would become my best signing as il explain later.

Gian- 19 year old striker signed from Santos for £1.3million would become an excellent bit of business. After coming in January to replace my injured striker i didnt know what to expect especially with him being so young and moving from the sun of Brazil to the rain of Scotland. I chucked him straight into the deep end to see wether hed float or sink and boy did he float. This boy would of kept the titanic afloat. a return of 14 goals in 17 games blew me away and now with half a season under his belt i surely cant wait for next season, unlike Marc fortune who will find it hard to win back his place.

Champions is what the board expected from me right away and the pressure was on for me to produce and bring them back the title from local rivals Rangers, We started good but also Rangers too where we would meet for the first time at Ibrox which was my first taste of the "OLD FIRM" derby. I didnt expect it to be so hostile but it was and unfortunatly a 2-1 defeat didnt go down to well with Rangers also taking first place. We carried on winning and a few draws floating around until we faced Rangers at home and a 3-1 win set us back on the same points but we had a game in hand. We then went on a run where all season we lost only 2 games drawing 9 and winning 27 so a very good year in the league.

Champions league gave us a tricky tie with FC Twente which we comfortably came through 4-1 winners on Agg. we then had to play shaktar where a 2-2 draw away would see us lovely for the home leg which we trounced them 5-0 to sail into the group stages. We were drawn against Sporting, Slovanian Bratislava and Chelsea so a very tough group but i felt optomistic especialy as we suprised chelsea with a 4-3 win at home in the opening game followed by a draw with Sporting and Brata away which followed by a Chelsea 3-1 win over us but a win in our last game see us make out of the group stages as runners up. we then drew AC Milan who at home we took a 3-3 draw back to the san Siro where we unbelivably scored 4 goals but they scored 6 and we lost 9-7 on AGG but i was blown away that we could score 4 at the san Siro and still manage to lose. We won the League cup beating Rangers in the final and then won the Scottish cup after beating suprise package Partick Thistle.

I was happy with the squad that i inherited but the youth at the club wasnt so pleasing thats why i decided i would buy younger players hoping they would become great players and hopefully legends at Celtic F.C. we had a strong midfield and attack even with samaras not fitting into my plans i felt comfortable knowing with the attacking potential in my team we would be okay, Defence however i had my doubts. I didnt think Loovens was good enough and that will be my aim next to get some better defenders into the club to take us onto the next level.
Around the World 2009/10
Chelsea Man united Arsenal and liverpool occupy the top four spots in that order in the Prem League. Wigan Bolton and Stoke relegated. Roma took Seria A with fiorentina runners up and in Spain Barca pipped Real to the title by 2 points so money doesnt buy you everything. AZ won the europa cup and the Champions of europe would be Real mardid who beat Lyon in the final 2-0.

Mega rich Man city showed there hand by taking the two biggest transfers with £23.5million for Denilson from Arsenal and Maxi rodriguez also brought into the team, a major difference from the £1.7 million biggest transfer fee by me this season.
Next season review 2010/11
To strengthen the defence and maybe look for a goalkeeper to come in also and obviously win the league and do well in the domestic cups and build on our success in the Champions League and maybe making the 2nd round again.
