New Bhoy Crosas Looks Forward to Inverness Rather than United Double Header

Last updated : 07 October 2008 By Clydebuilt
Celtic new Bhoy Marc Crosas has today stated that the squad will not be distracted by the upcoming tie against Manchester United and will be fully focussed for the trip to Inverness.

Classy midfielder Crosas has turned out to be a fine signing thus far, and appears to be the ideal partner for Scott Brown. Skoosh it would appear relishes playing alongside the former Barca man and who wouldn't? If you are a midfielder who loves to roam then having a player of Crosas's talent alongside you must be like a footballing dream come true.

The Manchester United match is massive for us, but nobody is thinking beyond the Inverness game," Crosas told Celtic View.

"Only once the Inverness game is over we can start to think and plan for the Man United game."

"I know that there will be a lot of interest in the match because it's the champions of Scotland and England playing each other. But we are not thinking about the game like that.

"We just know that we need a good result to keep up our dream of going further in the UEFA Champions League."

We need both a good result and also a magnificent performance if we are to prevail against the English Champions and current holders of the Champions League. I do feel however that if we can learn the lessons from the Villarreal game and play the same formation with Crosas playing alongside Brown then we could give Man U a game. I am ever the optimist!

Yours in Celtic
