My take on ineacho. Great player if fit can hardly stay fit won’t feature much but will be good to have on the squad years deal and with a decent wage seems reasonable. Turks come in 3 year deal and a hefty wage it’s a no brainer were hese going hese 29 can hardly stay fit he will not get a better deal than that rest of his career.
Would have been stupid of Celtic to offer him the same terms. For me right decision was made we move on. Remember people were moaning we we signed him and moaning when we’ were trying to keep him now hese gone people are moaning he should be signed. As I says for me the right decision was made in not matching the Turkish teams offer.

The Turkish can pay some hefty wages.
Salah is going to Besiktas for instance.
Look at some of the players in turkey, some top talent getting paid double triple quadruple what we can offer.
If Iheanacho could stay fit he’d be playing in the top 4 leagues. Or at least a decent level UEL team which we are not at this present time.

Here is the thing, if Celtic wanted him, they could have had him, as we had the option to extend by 1 year, which we didn't utilise.

Let’s hope we’ve got someone better lined up Joe ??.

wee joe heres the thing that option was not took because of the wage he was on so we decedided to offer new terms on wages that would be more reasonable on what he would have been offering because of his fitness
as i posted above the turkish team blow it out the water the big man got a brilliant offer no wonder he went to turkey he must have been rubbing his hands as he probaly knows hiself his fitness is gubbed.

I understand why we done it and if you read some of my replies you will see I'm glad we didn't get him. I was merely pointing out that if we genuinely wanted him, then we missed the opportunity to get him.

thats what i'm saying mate if we guinely wanted him we would of had to have paid stupid wages for him that wasn't worth it.
