1, Mols had the potential as his start atleast was tremendous but similar to Durrant the injury clearly destroyed a promising career 2 , yes iv seen them and both are legends in our game , but stats dont lie and Larsons at septic put him in the chat then add his astounding international career then add his stints at Barca and Utd that rubber stamp his elite quality level even at a later age

This is a brilliant discussion if you lose your temper in life for whatever reason then you have lost which was why Henk was so special just ask ~Barry 🍀

Fair play to Barry.

Best ever foreigner in Scotland.

I’m not old enough to have seen Jinky play,my dad did,he seen all the Lisbon lions,lucky man.I was at a really good age when henrik joined and I went to see him play sooo many games in the 7 amazing years he was with us and that to me is what I’ll say to my son who is only seven months old and tell him stories about the team we had under Martin O’Neill and I can only imagine the stories he will tell his kids in the time to come.And I think that’s the whole thing about a club Like Celtic,….you are born into it and it goes back generations,it’s magic when you stop and think about it.🍀

Genuinely the only Celtic player I'd liked to have seen play for Rangers

The only time I saw Henrik dish out revenge on an opponent was Gus McPherson at Celtic Park. It was shocking to see, he had a naughty stamp on him in the middle of the park. Was so out of character McPherson must have pushed the right button. Henrik’s usual revenge was putting the ball in the back of the net. Dundee United away. I think it was Billy Dodds who had a kick at him. 20 minutes later he completed the perfect hattrick. He was awesome.

As a Celtic fan who adored Henrik , he was very focused but like Barry says he never really got flustered , I think he got booked twice maybe . Something tells me he was sent off one match but I might be imagining that

Listen everyone. There are levels in all sports and henrik larsson was WORLD level in his peak and could have played for anyone even brazil and thats impressive for a swede but thats just how good he was. But as a proud celtic fan i want to mention how good the scot barry ferguson was...great player. I called him barry square baw cause i was bisae and hated him and the rangers but reality was he was a great player. But people there are levels and for me henrik larsson was WORLD CLASS. i hope even yous mad rangers fans can agree. My favourite player of all time was the great jinky johnstone who for me was the messi of his time and who was his best pal JIM BAXTER the guy who tore the world champions a new hole at Wembley. We need revelry but we need to be honest and remember that our heros dont hate each other the way the fans do...that being said im.gonnae slap.that dadty kenny miller next time.i see him not because of.his shit punditry but for the 15000 sitters he misssed against benfica. Henrik larsson is one of.the best players i have ever seen in the flesh and ive seen many greats. His best attribute was his lack of.greed ego and his loyalty for his team and the win no matter what. KING OF KINGS

Ian Hardie from Stirling previously Shawlands in Glasgow! Did Celtics bottle collapse then?

The best compliments they give him was how well he took their over the top tackles lol, typical. His temperament was probably also a cultural thing. I preferred Chris Sutton analysis of him not long ago about the chip he scored against rangers which was true, he basically said to have the audacity in such a game to even attempt that chip showed how good Larsson was.

Barry looks as fresh as a 30 year old. Very fair pundit.

Whats the score??? What we are getting beat beat 1 nil??? Its sound larrson has still to score!!!! That was my memory at about 13 14 years old ...mental

Honestly last week it was ram celtics words down there throat cut call mac in two now yapping about the Scottish cup becoming the new miller .. you where a good player not world class but your young nephew is the best Scottish midfield player hope he recovers he obviously got away from all this toxic pish in glasgow ... thats 13 years ive heard definitely next year ..rodgers won the league with more pounts than ange its going to be absolute dominance now like rangers in the 90s ..phill hasn't a clue

Barry laughing about leaving one on them and being annoyed if he didn't see a reaction but didn't tell his players to leave anything on Celtic FC players when he faced them as a manager, Barry isn't too bright!

Only man who got under his skin was souness, he duly shut him up at 😂🙌

People tend to think because someone like Ali or Pele or, in this case Larsson, don't look like a tough guy then they are not made of steel. Its not the case. I look like Vinnie Jones had Mike Tysons love child but am saft as shite.

Hi Barry........ Love your honesty all round. There was one time I saw Henrik get ticked off. Bhoy did he....... Against Dundee U. At Dundee. After several thumping tackles....... He just got up but you could see he was right ticked off. He then went on a tare........ Tore them apart. Can't remember if he scored or just set the goals up. My m8 said after the game...... I guess the book on him is font get him angry. Bhoy did he tare them up that day. 😁
