Zaluska content with Celtic role

Thu, 29 Oct 19:08:40 2009

Lukasz Zaluska has no regrets about joining Celtic, insisting he is part of one big goalkeeping happy family despite his lack of match action.

While Zaluska admits he finds it hard being out of the side, he claims bringing success to Celtic is more important than his personal goals.

He told Celtic View: "For every goalkeeper who is number two, it can be difficult, but Celtic is a massive club and I am honoured to be here."

Zaluska has played second fiddle to undisputed number one Artur Boruc since joining from Dundee United this summer. But an injury to his fellow Pole saw the 27-year-old make his Clydesdale Bank Premier League debut for the club in Sunday's 2-1 win at Hamilton.

His excellent performance could now provide manager Tony Mowbray with a selection headache.

He added: "I haven't been playing that much but I am certain this is the right club for me and I made the correct decision to come here.

"Before every game and every day in training, I do my best to help Artur and all the other goalkeepers.

"Getting three points for Celtic is always our aim. We want to do well in every game and try to win the title. For me, that is the ultimate aim."

Zaluska is loving training alongside Boruc, Dominic Cervi and Daniele Giordano under new goalkeeping coach Steve Woods.

He said: "I really enjoy training. Myself and Artur help each other. That's a good position to be in, because we are all pushing for the same target - to win the SPL title."

  1. I do not wish to become embroiled in the usual slanging­ match that usually follows every comment posted on­ these pages, but in the above article the names of each­ keeper on Celtics books suggest none of them are­ Scottish. Please do not use this point to slag off­ Celtic because I am sure if you choose another position­ in the respective teams the roles could be reversed.­ the point I am trying to get across is that this­ highlights one of the main problems with Scottish­ football. I know that leglislation prevents us limiting­ the amount of foreign players in our game but surely­ the money being wasted on wages and transfer fees could­ be ploughed back in at grass root level. I remember a­ few years back Jim Mclean was lamblasted for tying up­ young players on contracts but no one was complaining­ when they signed on the dotted line. Time to turn the­ clock back.

  2. It's with great sadness that I report Celtic Park­ was broken into last night. The entire contents of the­ trophy room were stolen. Strathclyde police are­ believed to be looking for a man with a green carpet
