Na there's no chance we'd turn an offer like that down! There's some offers u just don't turn down and that's one of them! Love the big man and he's got all the makings of a top class player but 40 million for a player from Scotland! I knows he proven down there in the championship and is doing really well for the French under 21s but we'd a bit there hand off for that kind of money and I don't think any of us could have argued about it! But I'm glad we've kept a hold of him for now and let's just enjoy him while he's here 👍🏻👍🏻HH

31 Jan 2017 16:02:49
I heard he's in holland mate. think we're really light up front by the way! Not that ciftci would have made a difference lol. but with moussa dembele having a knee problem and the manager questioning wee griff I would hate to blow the treble dude to a lack of striker! Don't think we will but why take a chance!

Dembele down in London for scan under Chelsea request. if all goes well they will sign him. same sorce told me Gordon will be signing new 4 year deal

Believable0 Unbelievable7

31 Jan 2017 13:45:18
Gordon will sign with us or Chelsea

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - So Celtic have accepted a bid from Chelsea already? That's the only explanation for us allowing Chelsea to demand medical explanations. Clubs can't just demand these things for players that aren't their player or with the permission of the player's parent Club - what's to stop Man City asking to put Messi through his paces and examine his dubious blood just for the hell of it?}

31 Jan 2017 15:34:12
because its ttd and its all lies!

but in a storm of lies, there is a raindrop of truth somewhere

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 15:49:09
why would MD be sent to London for a scan? We hear players getting scans all the time for things but don't get sent to London. Why no scan up here.
Or am I just being paranoid?

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 16:41:42
He's apparently a specialist mate that loads of footballers use

Moose on talksh1t saying his info is that Chelsea are unlikely to do any deals today, is that just smoke and mirrors but Moussa is in London, must be for a knee scan . I hope

Believable0 Unbelievable1

31 Jan 2017 11:56:06
Oh well seems dembelle is offski to Chelski on a plane fir a medical silly money for a young boy we got for buttons can't blame the club for taking it. Hope we manage a replacement striker in time? Strange our manager comes out in press and gives Griffiths a get your finger out message must've known the dembelle deal was on. Just saw zelalem video he looks soo chuffed to go to that massive Dutch team lol must be used to playing with diddies

There is a CB that plays in Italy having a medical with Leicester now according to sky

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 11:13:20
If Erik goes I will not be happy at all! 2 good games from boyata means nothing to me, he still couldn't lace Eriks boots! Thought for a Change we would be talking about who Brendan mite bring in but it seems half our team are offski lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 12:20:52
Not just a good footballer, Erik is highly marketable.

Family kinda famous and he's articulate and smart.

Potential future captain of any side and his value will just grow. Need to keep him now tho and develop him into a >£15m player.

31 Jan 2017 16:12:53
southampton looking at erik too.

Bhoys I don't often post, however Moussa was on a flight to London at 9 this morning. A fellow season ticket holder text as he was on the same flight. Would love to think my mate is winding me but he is not that type of lad. However if its the amounts quoted we can't say no really

Believable1 Unbelievable1

31 Jan 2017 11:03:16
He's at the bridge at the moment apparently having medical according to sky sports.

Have to say I'm gutted if it's true he's the best forward we've had since the king and with him in the side you always feel we have a chance against anyone.

Good luck to the bhoy tho I hope he reaches the top of the game.

Agree1 Disagree3

31 Jan 2017 11:09:57
He's in London for a scan on his knee

Posted earlier that CG will sign a new deal, family friend knows Chris Brendan's assistant and apparently they are both really not happy with the board with regards to budgets,
If things don't go well in the today i think BR will let his fellings be known.
Here we go again it's Lennon all over again with all the players we sold and champions league money the board never deliver. continue to Con fans out of money!

Believable0 Unbelievable7

Did we not just spend £3m on a teenager? Maybe I'm missing something here but I'm rather happy with the squad we have at the moment. Hopefully we can get a couple of upgrades to the current first team in early in the summer then after qualification to the CL is sorted maybe another one or two quality players in to have a better go at the group stages this time. Also regarding Dembele and the general consensus he'll be off in the summer. If we qualify for the group stages why would he not want to stay? More cl experience and another season developing here would surely benefit his chances of going to the world cup with France?

Agree3 Disagree1

31 Jan 2017 06:59:49
Totally agree Mikeybhoy. For the first time in years its actually difficult to pick out positions that we actually need to strengthen. I'd have said GK but the consensus seems to be that Gordon should keep his spot. Perhaps a CB but Boyata has cruised it since his return. Another attacking player would be nice but whose spot are they going to take? Seems as though some fans just want money spent for the sake of it. If the right player is not available then we should stick with what we have. Far too many players still kicking around who should never have been signed in the first place, no need to add to that list just so we can boast that we spent £x amount in the window.

Agree2 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 07:22:52
If Brendan Rodgers doesn't get the proper backing in the transfer market then no Celtic manager ever will whilst the current board are in place. They have done the hard part getting a brilliant manager in, why not back him with proper investment? There has got to be a minimum of 50 million sell on value for our top prospects in the current team. Now is the time to invest without looking a future sell on values!

Agree0 Disagree1

31 Jan 2017 08:39:03
I'd like to see a GK, a RB and a striker brought in. I think it's only a matter of time before Dembele goes and we need to spend a decent amount to replace him. Griffiths has done a great job over the past couple of years but we need another. That said, January is a difficult time to get targets in and I'd hate to see us waste more money on players who aren't any better than what we've got.
I'd like to think BR has guys in mind and will be backed by the board but time will tell. With sevco being so far behind us they might not be in any rush to spend big

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jan 2017 08:55:41
I think the board will release funds, its surely reputation suicide if they dont, especially with the gates up n BR winning record. It's obvious we need to replace Roberts, competition for rogic who gets injured and we need 3 good strikers at the club. This is assuming we don't lose anyone. I expect 2-3 more to go in the summer (GMS, efe n cifti) with possibly dembele too, the issue will come if BR doesn't get cash to replace quality with quality but he's surely proved his worth.

Agree0 Disagree0
