Wednesday’s match at Hibs looks like coming too early for the Scotland squad man but with Alexandro Bernabei struggling at left-back Rodgers could soon have a solution on the way.
Having seen him play and now seeing him for a few days, working with him and speaking with him – the ability that he has in incredible really.
Brendan Rodgers wants to shield his players from the distraction of supporters protesting against the Board of Directors.
Before today's 1-1 draw against Aberdeen a banner was unfurled, during the match chants against the board were heard with the final whistle unleashing further anger.
Social media…
There were others we felt that could fit and there was a real willingness from the club to do business and bring the players but it was the other club.
The heavy toll of fixtures in the first half of the season is simply a fact of modern day football with few alternatives to the former Kilmarnock man thin on the ground.
I’m prepared for hopefully being able to bring some players in to add to the squad but on the same token it’s how I work, my faith and trust to develop players who are here is still there and that’s what I’ll also look forward to.
I have been really impressed with Daniel Kelly too. He is a young player, he has got good physicality and is naturally left-footed and he has good energy.
I can see Paulo is really enjoying his time here. He is improving and developing. Is the fee realistic? I’m not going to say what it is but, absolutely, otherwise it wouldn’t be in place.
So now it’s up to Kuhn to prove him correct. Quite simply, Rodgers has to stand and fall by signings. Every manager does.
We will take the chance to be strong because we need to get the players back into a rhythm again and also I will take the chance to involve some young players as well
