It would help if these old heads with experience could also play football at our level though.
Benkovic is back in training, so I expect he'll play again this season

Can we recall or is that not an option on season long loans?
Only in the transfer window, if that's part of the loan contract.
Filip Benkovic returns to Celtic training as Neil Lennon handed major boost
The defender has been sidelined since January with an ankle but is battling back to fitness for the title run-in.

The fact that our fifth choice centre back is first choice at Celtic says a lot about the relative merits of the two sides.

Yea, I bet they'd be well up for swapping him for Morgan

Celtic would snap our hand off for Morgan.

That's not what I said, who do you think they would rather have in their starting 11, Morgan or Benkovic?

Benkovic isn't our 5th choice CB, he was signed when we expected to lose Maguire and when that didn't happen we found a solution to get him playing games, with Rodgers here now I would pencil him in to start next season

Let's hope so.
He's out of contract in the summer.

Brendan Rodgers has a plan for Filip Benkovic at Leicester
The Croatian international has spent the season on loan at Celtic, where Rodgers got to work with him.

They're still waxing lyrical about him up there with many of their fans comparing him to VVD which is a big compliment. From one of their fans:
The team actually improved when he came in against Dundee. Weird thing to say when he is a CB and we didnt need to defend in that game.
