What's the difference them signing an injured kt and us signing an injured young turnbull who's apparently on the road to recovery.

If they sign KT it will tell me that KT was not injured and the injury was just being used as a smokescreen to protect a very valuable asset to Celtic.
My personal opinion is The club had a discussion with KT when Lennon arrived and it was decided by mutual consent that KT would move on in the summer and Lennon was told that he would be allowed to use the money to strengthen the squad.
It would not surprise me if KTs injuries have been exagerated since last season so we minimized risk of him getting injured and thus ruining this summers recruitment.
I believe we have a few transfers lined up which will go ahead when the KT transfer is concluded and I expect some top performers to arrive to fill the role of RB and target man.
{Ed007's Note - That's a nice wee fantasy/conspiracy you've came up with there but it was Tierney himself that instigated this entire situation. After the Scottish Cup final he told the Club that he wanted to explore his options and if an acceptable offer was made to the Club he would be open to moving on, his agent already had the feelers out to see who was interested.
Accusing KT - and everyone else who would be involved - of going along with some dodgy plan to exaggerate his injuries is a bit out of order imo.}

I was in no way saying KT was faking the injury.
What I am saying is clubs often pretend a player is injured when they are about to sell them as they don't want to jeopardise the transfer.
At present Celtic are saying KT is injured and we don't know if that is true. My point was that if Arsenal buy him in the immediate future then it is likely our club pretended he was injured as it is unlikely Arsenal would shell out that money for an injured player.
{Ed007's Note - So Celtic are pretending KT's injured and he doesn't know about it?}
