I seriously can't believe how poor Eddie has gotten, his touch is woeful, he turns constantly into trouble, loses the ball far too often, we'd be lucky to recoup the money for him at this rate
Ed not sure how sell on clause works but surely when you add a sell on clause do you request that the clause to be only implemented on any profit above the purchase fee or even if you sell at a loss you still then pay % sell on fee?
{Ed007's Note - It's a percentage of the profit mate. The only thing that will affect Edouard's fee is his contract situation, Celtic will still be asking for a "significant fee" probably in the £20 - £25 million bracket.}

Do you really think someone will pay that? I just can't see it, last season yes no problem, however that was on the basis you expected him to carry on being prolific, but he looks average, and average in the spl doesn't attract money.
{Ed007's Note - Clubs still know what he is capable of and his potential. 17 goals in 28 games is still a decent record in a poor season.}

7 goals in six games just not good enough from Edouard.
14 Feb 2021 13:19:56
I presume somebody on the side line told him about my comment and he pops two in 😂😂.
{Ed007's Note - WGS Jnr showed him it on his laptop lol. West Ham (Edouard doesn't fancy that) Leicester (obviously) and Arsenal (to replace Lacazette) are all tracking Edouard plus there will be interest in France, could he maybe replace Dembele at Lyon?}

Imagine how bad we are going to be up top next season without him.
14 Feb 2021 14:01:09
I'd love to see somebody shell out £20m for him Ed but with him only having 12 months left and no end in sight with C.V., I'd be surprised unless there's a bidding war involving a few clubs. From a football point of view, I'd love to see him stay for his last year.
{Ed007's Note - It's because of his contract the price has dropped from £30 million. What's £25 million in Pub League terms?}

He has 2 or 3 players on him every time. It's down to the people around him too to help create space for him. He's better with a strike partner up top the whole midfielder as striker doesn't work. Why not start Klimala up top with Eddy if Griff and Ajeti ain't fit enough for 90 then bring either on in the final 15-20.
14 Feb 2021 14:08:23
He looks like he's been coasting all season; but has now scored in seven games in a row and even though his style can be frustrating, we will need much better than Griff, Ajeti and Klimala to replace him.

I can’t understand Celtic fans doubting Eddie. He is head and shoulders above any player in the league. He was injured at the start of the season and then had the C.V. issues. A few bad touches on a terrible pitch and trying to turn a player when 3 are around him in a packed midfield.
He is now getting up to full fitness and in some form.
14 Feb 2021 14:38:54
First player to score 20+ goals in 3 consecutive seasons since hooper. 20 goals in a season where he’s not on top form is incredible if someone pays 25m they’ll be getting a bargain.

It probably would never happen but due to the fact that next seasons winners go straight into the champions league, would anyone like it if the club said we aren’t selling you and you could go on a free after the following season.
We probably won’t replace him with quality similar, I understand he may want to go but he would get a much bigger signing on fee . If his value is dropping to what some are saying, if he stayed and managed to win us the league back it would be money saved.
Or we could hire a top coach that may entice him to stay for another season .

Klopp to Celtic 😂.

Normally it would be a drop in the ocean Ed but when Liverpool are scraping around the bottom half of the Championship for players then you know times are tough lol.
{Ed007's Note - Liverpool's finances are a mess and it's nothing to do with Covid. The players they bought last summer was just more debt and they had no money to put upfront for a defender there in January, failure to qualify for the CL next season will cause major problems}
14 Feb 2021 16:54:58
Rumours are flying around that klopp has quit, the Liverpool fans aren’t happy with the American owners.
{Ed007's Note - They were happy enough when they were winning the league and the CL.}
