    We discussed a fee with them before we went in for Turnbull..

    Interesting..

    Think we'll get this one done..

    He looks really good and I've seen him play a good few time's and thought he looked slick..

    If we can replace Allan, Mulumbu and Ntcham with Connell, Cifuentes and Sawyers, I will be over the moon.

    We're going back in tomorrow with a 2m bid, by all accounts.
    Hopefully gets it done.

    I'm assuming we were told that price originally. Left and went for Turnbull and have thought we could come back in half a million short..

    Sounds like we aren't far off..

    CELTIC will make a second swoop for Brentford’s Romaine Sawyers after having their first £1.5million offer rejected.

    SunSport told how Neil Lennon has targeted the Bees ace.

    Hoops chiefs have now tabled their opening bid, but the approach was immediately turned down by the Championship side.

    Sawyers, 27, has a year to run on his contract, but Celts are now preparing a follow-up offer of around £2m to secure the Brentford skipper.

    Hoops manager Lennon believes the powerful midfielder would add steel to his squad.

    Stoke City and West Brom are also understood to be interested in a deal and are keeping tabs on the situation.

    A wee bit doubtful about what sort of impact the guy will have. 26, very little football and by all accounts only one good season in league one with walsall and one in the championship with brentford.

    As a utility player aye.

    Very little football ? The guy has literally played 40+ games for 6 seasons in a row..
    :giggle1:

    He's been excellent for Brentford the past 3 seasons..

    Id never seen or heard of him but his stats are interesting, really high pass completion despite setting up a good number of chances and playing a good number of long passes also plays a lot of passes a game averaging 64 per game, the 4th most in the League so sees a lot of the ball. Yet he doesnt shoot much and is never caught offside so probably never too high up the park?

    Is he a Pirlo sort? sits around the half way line knocking it about.

    40+ games for 6 straight seasons, 3 of which as captain for a well established championship club? It's a yes from me. Especially at £2.5m. Get this done celtic. Will be nice to have an attacking midfield player who can last 90 minutes and play 40 games a season. Plus, we play more attacking football than Brentford so I think he could thrive here.

    He looks decent but if it was between him and Cifuentes as a permanent transfer (not on loan from man city), I'd prefer Cifuentes. Although i wake up every morning with the hope we've bid for a RB and we never seem to be addressing that situation.

    Don't know a thing about him but got a pal who follows Sheff Utd and has seen him a few times, he reckons the guy could definitely do a job for us or for a mid-lower EPL side.

    I think we will sign 2 central midfielders. One to replace Ntcham and one instead of Turnbull. Therefore could get both of the names mentioned.
