Stuart Armstrong

Only bit I'd change is at the beginning. Stuart wouldn't mind staying at a massive club in Celtic..

 

Is Armstrongs agent not his dad or something like that?

Anyway hopefully gets sorted soon one way or another, between this and the Roberts situations can't be * with all this speculation

 

Your right to an extent IMO, but I think even playing in the right position under Deila he would have been *.

He's a better player than he ever was right now. He was quite good at Dundee United but last season he was outstanding.

 

I'd sell him right now ,no sense him signing a new contract to be sold next year when he decides he doesn't want to he here after all

 

He certainly wasn't * at Dundee Utd in his correct position, if he was then we wouldn't have bought him.

 

That doesn't even make sense, take the Petrov deal to Villa as an example.

 

No point keeping him here is he is not gonna sign a new deal.
Sell him for 3-4 million, then we can buy a replacement such as McGinn.

 

Honestly if he hasn't signed before the second leg next week I'd punt him.

And if he tries to run his contract down I wouldn't play him at all.

 

No Brendan has actually named him as Liam O'Donnell.

 

There is the money grabbing * there

See at the end of the day see if the player wants to sign he should tell his agent to * off, these agents are mercineries and really want the best deal for themselves, say he gets a 10% kick back on a £4m transfer or a flat fee for negotiations with celtic, just a * feel like phoning his office to tell him that!

 

This. The agent works for Armstrong, not the other way around. Armstrong should be the one laying down the law and telling the agent what he wants. Is he doing that the now or is the agent got free reign to attempt to line his own pockets? Hard to say really.

On the topic of Armstrong, I see the Daily Rag has ran with with this as their main story on the morning of arguably the biggest game of the season for us, so far. Designed to unsettle and nothing else, the * rag.

 

It's some group run by a lawyer ,I take it that's him.

I read he was holding out to see if any offers came in.
If Armstrong wanted to stay that much he would tell them he is accepting the generous offer made by Celtic.
Armstrong is not blameless in this he is hiring the agent and the final decision is his.
Get him dropped until he decides.

 

I had heard elsewhere that his advisor was being really awkward, he has a vested interest and is obviously filling Armstrong's head with *. Agents I think its been said for a while, but they do wield a power that is way above their station- they should have their clients interest at heart but a lot have money as their sole aim. Commission from big deals. Money grabbing, manipulative *. I think that's why a lot of players would use family members although that brings its own set of problems to.

 

They only make real money when transfers are negotiated so pretty normal money grabbing human nature

 

Pull the offer and punt.

 

If it's true that he wants to stay he would have signed the contract regardless of what his agent says to him. He clearly doesn't want to stay so he hasn't.

 

Very interesting week or two for Armstrong, especially given Rodgers' comments last night. He can either shrink away from the pressure and the challenge or he can shine, like he did last season. Its up to him.

 

Simple question would be ,Stuart wot is it we need to do to keep you here ,if he has no answer to a question that must already have been asked ,he has had his head turned ,sell.

 

I'd rather wee punt rather than get * all for him next Summer, no one is bigger than the club...
