    I'd try push more out of them but if they're not budging then I'd take the £7 million to be honest. His mind is at anywhere but Parkhead at the moment.

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing and no-one could've predicted how bad a season he would've had but looking back if we had punted him for £14 million and got McGinn for £2.75 million we would've been doing well.

    On his day he should be valued far more than £7M, doubling it would seem fair.

    That being said we haven't seen his best for sometime. Don't know if that is down to attitude or match fitness tbh. If the management team know its an attitude problem we should cash in for £7M before find ourselves talking of a lesser sum

    Depending on the manager we bring in he could be a top player for us

    I think we'd be mad to sell him for £7m. Talent like that doesn't fall on our doorstep too often. We can't afford to bail on it that easily. Give him another year under a new boss.

    10 mil at the very minimum, as mentioned could depend on who the new manager is.

    £10m definitely.

    He’ll be one down the line we’ll be gutted we didn’t get the best out of him.

    Obviously a superb player his technical and physical ability is crazy, saying that he has given us 3 good performances this season and its clear his mental ability is absolutely * gash. Ntcham should dominate every game from midfield but he doesn't, he goes missing from most matches and he just doesn't look like he wants to be here. I also cant see us being able to play him in a midfield 2/3 of him, McGregor & Rogic because none of them play that box to box role which we absolutely crave in a 3 man midfield and its * because Ntcham has the physical qaulities to get up and down and if he only adapted his game he'd give us so much more.

    For the fact he just cant be arsed to turn up half of the time id sell him for anything above 8-9M because I honestly dont see us hiring someone who is a better coach than Rodgers in terms of improving and getting performances out of players.

    Named in the French squad for U21 Euros. Probably rules him out of a few qualifiers?

    Edouard on the stand by list too. That'd be some kick in the teeth

    Nah no chance would I entertain 7 mill..

    Porto regularly get big fee's so aren't skint..

    Especially with him going to the Euro's with the French under 21's that on paper there look like they can win it....putting him right in the shop window..

    Hes as mentally strong as pee wee herman.

    Granted theres an absolute pler in there but i wouldnt even risk waiting to see what a new manager could to couldnt do.

    10m and anyone can have him as far as im concerned. Waste of a shirt

    Selling him for £7m would be mental.

    Could easily be going for at least double that next season depending on who we get as manager.

    7 million is a complete and utter pittance for Ntcham.

    They can * off.

    This.

    £7m is short sighted. Still loads of potential there. We paid £5m ffs

    I don't get why folk are desperate to punt. The old line of "we can use that on a quality replacement" getting thrown about. When have we EVER did that.:56:

    I’d rather we get him in a couple of wee French pals and get him going again.

    His problem isn’t his talent though, it’s his own desire within himself. He doesn’t give a *. It’s difficult to change a players mindset.
