    I'd rather we got him as a good scottish prospect, but if we've missed out I'm not going to have a fit about it, midfield is easily our strongest area of the pitch as is, hopefully means Kouassi will get a decent amount of games this season, he's looked good from the little we've saw of him.

    Yeah we would or just have a handful of decent players surrounded by *. You can't just hand the asking price to clubs every time. No * business does that, unless it is run by complete cretins.
    I think this is an absolute certainty, and he is a man I would be more than happy to be managing this club again.

    Hope Villa stand firm on Grealish and subsequently cool their interest in McGinn. Wouldn't bet on that, but stranger things have happened. :grntongue

    I think Grealish will still go, Villa are just trying to get an extra £3-5m. They have apparently asked for £32m so I expect an offer of £27-30m.

    Hold on, I'm not one for conspiracy theories but.....Could Villia have reject Spurs' offer for Grealish because McGinn is on his way back up the road?

    Just a thought. Could be clutching at straws all the same :56:

    That's who I'm thinking too. Cheaper option and keep the fans happy.

    The board better not be thinking like this though and push Rodgers away to get a bumper pay off for him.

    I know I'm jumping the gun and * because the board have just broke our transfer record but so what? I'm allowed to get a bit frantic on euro night :36::ynwacelti:brendy:

    I doubt they will think that. I must say though if Rodgers left and replaced by a random guy I would be miffed, if it was Lenny I would be just as happy, he was brilliant while in charge.

    Bringing in Arzani on loan , And the player so far we need to spend any money on in McGinn we could be losing out on aint going to cut the mustard.

    We NEED a good squad for the coming season and to strengthen! We should be pulling away from the pack while we are ahead. We lost armstrong we need a replacement for him. Its a long season and Mcginn would been perfect for that and the price wasnt exactly wayyy over the top for him. For what we could/will pay for him could be nothing in the long term if he were to come here and play for years to come, he defo has another few levels to go.

    This deal should of been done when brendan wanted it done.

    Well this has turned, or looks to be, into a right * shambles hopefully we can turn it around and still get him.

    Although I suspect a few are more interested in the potential to ask if the board/Pete are able to do the job :giggle1:




    This, we should have just paid the 2.5 if BR really wanted him :50:



    It should never have come down to "because he is a Tim" we either wanted him or we didn't. We should have paid the fee wanted or come closer to it in the first place. Now, if it still happens, we will pay about what was wanted in the first place. Plus we will have to pay higher wages given Villa will have, no doubt, offered a decent wage.

    Mcginn is back up the road, infact apart from Sky Sources there is no proof seen to my knowledge he was down in Birmingham!

    Seriously though as a celtic fan and ST holder since 94/95 season if I was even in talks with another team and Celtic came in for me and matched the package I would sign for celtic no doubt about it, even if the phone went when my pen was hovered over the contract I would be like "sorry lads that's celtic on the phone am away to Parkhead" so just goes to show the reports he wasn't that keen on coming to celtic must have had some substance to them!

    Even more so they want £30M for Grealish an absolute bog standard player that dives about like a * on ice.
