well this was sort of a suprise, I would have thought he wanted a new challenge in the Prem, especially after the medical at Charlton, but obviously the prospect of relegation & having to adapt to much better league at 33 has put him off, picked the easier option imo

He's also certain to win trophies before 2008 as well, so that probably had something to do with his transfer

how many more times will he play in the CL this season, 2 times max?
Playing in a faster, harder & higher quality league domestically and regularly is the harder option is what I'm trying to say. Obviously there's CL next year, but it depends if at 34 he's still the No1 choice CB at Celtic  the reason he was signed is because of the injury probs right now at celic, if every1's fit he probably won't be signed.
the wife bit may be the more reasonable explanation.
