Scottish League 1974 1975 "The Old Firm" Celtic Rangers , Kenny in Glasgow

15 September 1974
Celtic Park,
Glasgow


 There can be no mistaking the poise and style of a soccer thoroughbred. He is the player who relies solely on pure skill to beat his opponent... he is a superstar every other club would like to have in their first-team. In Kenny Dalglish, Celtic have one of the greatest prospects to be seen in Scottish soccer for many years. Dalglish is the golden boy of Parkhead. His smooth, controlled pace, allied to his devastating finishing in and around the penalty-box, makes him a player for the other teams to fear and rival managers to envy. If Jock Stein had to value Dalglish's sterling work for Celtic on today's transfer market it would start at around the £200,000 mark. Dalglish doesn't want to leave Parkhead and Stein will never let him go because there is no doubt he will be the leading tight behind Celtic's challenge for honours on the domestic and European scene for years to come. But there is one worrying feature of Dalglish's play ... one feature that makes him Celtic's £200,000 problem boy. At the start of every season Kenny kicks-off in true superstar style. He chases around in midfield, helps out in defence and always seems to find the time to pop-up in the danger-areas to belt in a couple of goats. However, Kenny hasn't as yet been able to sustain this sort of form throughout a season. Obviously it could be stated that he takes far too much out of himself earlier on, but the answer may not just be as simple as that...

C1 1975 1976 St Etienne Psv Eindhoven

D’une manière générale, les habitués de la Coupe d’Europe préfèrent jouer le match-aller à l’extérieur, surtout dans les derniers tours qualificatifs, quand l’adversaire est de grande valeur. Saint- Etienne n’échappe pas à la régie et fait un peu la moue en apprenant qu’il devra d’abord recevoir P.S. V. Eindhoven avant d’aller en Hollande le 14 avril 1976. Mais Curkovic rassure ses coéquipiers : « En Coupe d’Europe, c’est presque iné¬ vitablement la meilleure équipe qui se qualifie, quel que soit l’ordre des matches.» P.S.V. Eindhoven n’est pas encore entré dans le club des Grands Européens, non plus que Saint-Etienne.

If Alan Shearer is the most costly individual to walk the turf of legends, Eric Cantona demonstrated at Wembley yesterday afternoon that he remains the most precious. For, while Shearer pined for the ball that seldom came, while Manchester United outpaced, outplayed and outwitted the pretenders from the North East, it was Cantona ­ one-fifteenth the cost of the £15 million Shearer ­ who inspired and led the Double-winners to such an emphatic victory in the FA Charity Shield. One is tempted to say that here was an ordinary man, elevated by birthright and by his goals among Englishmen, competing against one who is extraordinary, who is French, and who reached yet again the extremes of wonderful touch and vision. Cantona might also have been sent off when his infamous temper erupted in the second half, but he received merely a yellow card for a physical assault on Philippe Albert that prefaced the turn from sunshine to a glowering late thunderstorm. But how Manchester United proved their worth. It was not all about Shearer, and never could be. There is no point in possessing an idol, indeed in having £16.25 million of spare talents on the bench, if you are not a team, and from the start, as Newcastle groped for a pat tern, the other United were first into their stride, first to flow. They commanded midfield through Keane and Butt. At the back, May and Pallister stretched stride for stride with Shearer and Ferdinand.
