First of all, welcome back to Silty.

0:07.0

First of all, welcome back to Celtic, I'm going to have you back.

0:24.6

Just want to know what the initial reaction in the feeling was when you knew for 100% that you were going to be coming back to Celtic.

0:31.6

When was it and how did you sort of find out?

0:34.6

Thanks a lot. The time I heard was January is when I found out it was going to be a free agent. And from there, spoke to Celtic. And it was going to be, it was touching golf. It was going to happen in January. But I'd signed the pre-contract for it to be guaranteed in the summer anyway. So in January, I knew for sure. Obviously, your left Celtic at 21. It had the good sense. is the way you so in January and you for sure. Obviously your lifestyle to get 21 at the good six years the way at Arsenal and then

the associate dad. Do you think coming back here now this is where you'll be for the rest of your career?

1:04.0

You've sort of you've had your time away and this is where you want to be?

1:07.0

I think so because you don't come back to your home at 28 and you think about somewhere else again.

1:13.6

Obviously in football you generally never know and I know that from the first time as well.

1:18.6

I grew up never thinking you would leave Celtic or that but football can, like things can happen.

1:24.6

being here for the rest of my career. Kear, what's your first impression has been of the new squad,

1:34.3

a lot of new faces as the same manager, but new players have able to play alongside?

1:39.3

It's been great. I missed the first week or whatever it was because I was in a national duty, so came back and I could see how much the boys were flying how much hard work they put in

1:49.0

it's a physical side there's a lot of pace and power and strength in it so it's been great I'm interested in with tactically as well in the six years you've been away you've played centreback for Scotland you've played left wing for Arsenal in the forward areas other various roles as well do you think you've been away, you've played centreback for Scotland, you've played left wing for

2:01.1

Arsenal in the forward areas, other various roles as well. Do you think you've worked into

2:05.3

a more versatile play as well? I'd probably say that, but left wing or centreback is

2:13.0

somewhere I've always been comfortable with, mostly centre back than left wing.

2:22.4

But yes, even when Nagafel was here the first time there was games when I played centre back and a back four, or if we changed to the back five, I would be wingback.

2:28.2

So nothing really new to me, but it's more adaptable, probably.
