Rumours of us being close to signing Jozo Simunovic for €6 million. Have we finally realised that you can't sell a player for £12million and replace him with a someone for £500k and still be as good a team?

Was just going to ask ED, have u heard anymore about this deal? Seen it mentioned a few times tonight now that it looks like this deal could be happening.

I do hope so, hope he picks us would be a step in the right direction, I also hope the board don't think this is enough as we all know what we really need.

The price of a player is totally irrelevant. The ability to do the job that he is bought for is all that matters .

Old Bhoy, VVD has just been called up to the Dutch national squad, who's going to come in for pennies and fill that gap? There's players out there who we could get for cheap that have the potential to be class but we're losing a top defender so we need to try and fill that void with some pedigree.

Believe this or not but expect the croatian jozo simunovic to be announced as a celtic defender tomoz fee in region 4 to 6 million and talks ongoing with Inverness for Christie. Expect at least 3 players going out on loan or sold aswell. But still no news of a stricker bhoys

Hearing that we're close to signing this croation defender ED,any news? Talkin 6m euros!! Surely not mate? And if so why the f**k did we not spend sum decent money before the CL qualifier! Would rather we spent this kind of money on a striker if it was true! Not that I believe it is.

{Ed007's Note - I've been told CFC and West Ham have both had bids of £3.2 million accepted and it's up to the player.}

Ed see what is really annoying me as much as a love big virgil everybody knew he was getting sold this summer why not just move him on get few players in for pre season with the money surley we would have had a better chance of qualifying for the champions league with a few new additions with the sale of vvd

Agree7 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I really wish I had the answers mate, I feel the exact same as you. The fact we went into the CL qualifiers with Griffiths and Ciftci as our main strikers is just ripping the pi$$ out of us supporters, it's a damned disgrace and the buck stops on the heated driveway o the club's highest paid employee - Peter Lawwell, a man who is better paid than some CEOs in the EPL and better paid than any of our players, that's unheard of at other clubs.}

Sad to say but got to agree with you guys, sad to see what's happening at parkhead. We pay money to come and watch so why no re pay us paying fans with some proper entertainment. We're not asking for Messi we just need some guys to light up the game and get the fans back and bring back "the thunder".

ED if any EPL team is in for him then we can forget it! Sounds like a lot of pish to me buddy! Another one of lawells we tried to get this player and that player but here's some diddy on loan to keep u lot quiet! Well we won't be quiet anymore!

I said exactly the same thing months ago. I would have sold VVD first at the start of preseason and brought in 2 new centre backs at that time. They would then have had the preseason ges to build up an understanding in time for the qualifiers.

Maybe we will learn from this but I doubt it.

Well if West Ham are in for him then I'm pretty sure we are fucked. Then it will be the same old story of aw we really tried to get him but we can't compete with the epl. Should have been sorted out BEFORE we went out of the champions league.

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed007's Note - West Ham are a bit of a basket case in the transfer market this summer, just because they've bid doesn't mean anything, they made some very odd moves without actually getting anywhere with deals.}

I think that Celtic and Scotland is not necessary the favourite place many of our targets wish to go to . Maybe we have to wait until the closing days of the window for us to land any of our targets .
I wouldn't be surprised if our board or Mr Lawwell were slow at doing the business, but on the other hand it might be the agents and players holding out for better than Glasgow .

If West Ham United want him he'll go there as slaven bilic is a countryman?i

Ed, do you have any info whether we're really after N'Sakala from Anderlecht? If we managed to get him in along with Simunovic and a striker that would be an improvement. Of course it would still beg the question, why didn't we go get them sooner?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - I've asked Ed002 if she can find out anything for me but as far as I know his agent is trying to hawk him around England and that the CFC wouldn't be willing to meet the fee Anderlecht are currently looking for.
I think the whole story of us being interested has been manufactured by the player's agent.}

It's pretty soul destroying stuff.
