    I've fancied spending big on a CM for a while and he'd do nicely.

    I'd take him in a heartbeat but seriously doubt it, and Phil talks a power of *

    He's going to get a lot more interest and offers after Euro 2016.

    I'd imagine he'd be on high wages beyond what we would pay.

    Id pay the money even with a year left in his contract, he would be up there with one of our greatest ever signings.

    Would be a fantastic signing but I'm assuming he'd be on big money and EPL clubs would probably favour him more. Though you just never know, Dembele turned down PL clubs.

    Would take him obviously but can't see it.

    I'd love him here. Make him our highest paid player. The idea of playing in front of nearly 60k fans every week, CL football and Rodgers at the helm could persuade him. He is not a regular starter for Liverpool.

    Do not read a word that guy says.

    He is a certified moon unit, embarrasses himself and other Celtic fans with regularity.

    I'd love him here but I'm not sure how happy I'd be with us spending the vast majority of our budget to get him.

    He's been phenomenal at the Euros.

    Any examples off the top of your head of him being way wide of the mark? I always thought he was sort of semi reliable at least.

    Would be outstanding but a load of * by Phil, not a very reliable source whatsoever seems more interested in talking about Sevco and Oldco most of the time.

    We'd need to shell out 6M+, that'll only happen if we qualify for CL I think.

    Pick any of his articles.

    He's a sycophantic, deluded, obsessed old man. More of a Hun hater than a Celtic lover.

    Fair enough. I very rarely read any of his articles anyway.. They're a head wreck to decipher :smiley-laughing002:

    Did Swansea not get a 10mil offer rejected a few weeks back? Pipe dream at that figures.

    He's having too good a Euros now and is out of our range,if Wales had been put out at group stages i think we'd have even struggled to get him then.

    If we were ever going to break our transfer record I would hope it wouldn't be on someone like Joe Allen when he'll be a free agent in a year.
