After a shaky start at Celtic, Brendan Rodgers looks as though he is getting to grips with life at the Glasgow club. Losing 1-0 to Gibraltarian side Lincoln Red Imps was never going to go down well but since that embarrassment, the former Liverpool boss has guided the club back into the Champions League group stages and that, ultimately, is what the fans wanted.

They have a tough group, though - consisting of Barcelona, Manchester City and Borussia Monchengladbach - but you can bet Celtic Park will be rocking when those three roll into town, as Rodgers looks to navigate a route to the knockout stages.

Meanwhile in the league, it's normal service. Three wins from three games see the Hoops top of the Scottish Premier League with a game in hand over their nearest rivals and their fans will be hoping it's a sign of things to come.

Rodgers has been quick to get in players he feels can help improve the team, but there's no doubt he'll be busy until the deadline and here at Football FanCast we take a look at five players who could be on their way into Celtic Park before the deadline.

Cristian Gamboa

According to the Daily Record this one is very nearly done. The Costa Rica international has played very little for West Brom under Tony Pulis so is naturally going to be happy to move north of the border for a crack at first team football. Gamboa has bags of pace from defence and would be the ideal man to help Rodgers implement his pressing game at the Glasgow club.

Michel Vorm

Celtic were linked with the Tottenham number two earlier this month, and after his performance against Liverpool he's surely only going to attract more interest. The Dutch stopper showed in the 1-1 draw at White Hart Lane last weekend that he is still a good keeper, he's just unlucky to be stuck behind Hugo Lloris at Spurs. He must realise he's good enough to nail down a first team spot elsewhere, and that could be with the Hoops.

Andre Wisdom

Andre Wisdom is a decent defender but just doesn't seem to be able to force his way into the Reds first team. He's spent loan spells at West Brom and Norwich in recent seasons, but now could be set for a move to Celtic. Rodgers knows him from his time at Liverpool and may feel that the Englishman would benefit from playing alongside the more experienced Kolo Toure.

James McCarthy

James McCarthy (Everton)

It looks as though McCarthy is going to find it hard going under Ronald Koeman. He's been ousted from Everton's midfield by new signing Idrissa Gueye and can't get ahead of Gareth Barry so it might be time for a change of scenery. For Celtic, however, he wouldn't be bad a signing at all. He can pass the ball well and isn't scared of a battle, so watch this space.

Brendan Rodgers has played down the speculation surrounding the World Cup winner moving to Glasgow. But that doesn't always mean much when it comes to transfers, especially with Brendan Rodgers. Before Liverpool signed Mario Balotelli he said the club were not interested in the Italian's services, but as we all know he became a Liverpool player a few days later. Don't rule this one out just yet.
