Celtic won yesterday against second division team Livingston with 4-0 and qualified for the quarter finals of the Scottish league cup, that will be played in October.
Former Barcelona midfielder Marc Crosas (20) was not selected for this match, probably because he was given a rest ahead of the next league game.
Since Barcelona can buy Crosas back in the summer of 2010 for two million euro (read more here), this blog will follow the performances of the midfielder over the next two years.

(post from Doffen after the Kilmarnock game last weekend)
another flawless performance from marc at the weekend. we're all delighted if not a bit surprised at just how quickly he has settled into the team and the new league.
the football here is obviously much different from what he has experienced previously in spain and france but he has adapted really quickly.
his passing as expected from any barca youth product is sharp, precise and he always looks to play offensively even from deep positions.. he has managed to show up the weaknesses in our other midfielders in process.
we have a cup game tomorrow night, but he is expected to be rested for saturday's match, as he didnt feature against aalborg so the manager maybe doesnt think he can cope physically with 2 games in 1 week.
we hope he can sustain his start, but we are not getting carried away as Massimo Donati, who we signed from AC Milan started brilliantly last year only to fade away in the second half of the season. crosas is young but let's hope he can keep improving. but not too much as we dont want barca to take him back!!
good luck with la liga.
