    The likes of Ajer and Édouard will likely be sold next summer unless they sign new contracts.

    That’s what I think we should be looking to do over the course of the next year with current players !!

    Bitton will get another contract, we’ll try to keep Elyounoussi I think if possible, the rest for 2020 will be gone.

    I’d be keen to offer Dembele a new contract soon as well with a big buy out clause.

    Would love to see if we can find a way to keep Forster in goals for next season as well be it another loan deal if unable to sign him fully.

    Of those on the list, the most pressing priority in my opinion is getting Christie down to a deal beyond 2022. He is the future for us.

    id imagine Ajer will.. as good as he can be, i think he is got a bit of developing to do before he is ready for the top level EPL or europe and he will get the games/minutes with us.

    Id imagine Lyon will move for Edouard if they sell on Dembele given how well he has done so far with them.. or possible Leicester or an EPL side..

    Wasn't that keen on his return and he's proven me wrong return definitely agree with trying to keep him into next season.

    Bitton, Ajer, Dembele, Christie and Hayes will be offered new contracts. Kouassi and Simunovic will both be sold before their contracts ends and Edouard and Ntcham will either leave or accept 1 year deals based on them getting a move imo.

    I think Hayes is likely to get at least a year extension.

    We've done well contract wise over the last year or two. We've got pretty much all our big player's tied down for a bit..

    Isn't many running out of contract that I'd be too fussed about leaving in the summer, or who would turn down a new offer I don't think..

    Would get Forster back on loan or a cut price deal/wages..

    Would try for Elyounoussi again on loan (doubtful)

    Would get wee Dembele playing a few game's and on a new long term deal before the season's out..

    Would look to get Edouard on a lucrative new deal asap. With the promise of the right offer being accepted in the summer..

    Ajer, Christie and Forrest I'd be looking to tie down again next summer..

    We're in a strong position with our assets just now. We've done quite well looking at those..

    Because he's been getting played, always plays well even if not man of the match and is adaptable to various positions on the left. He never gives less than his all and, from the interviews I've seen with him, I reckon he would be a good influence in the squad. At 32 he's got a few years left in him.

    Was thinking something was up. Ipswich couldn't afford Eddie's boots!

    I doubt Lawwell would deal with Congerton and the snake for one and two....I'm no sure if Eddy would be keen to link up with him after how he dealt with his pal Dembele..

    Some might laugh at this but when I look at an aging Real Madrid with Benzema (who was frighteningly good in his prime), I've no doubt Eddy could do damage for a side like that as first or second choice striker. Same for Bayern when Lewandowski inevitably slows down even more. Man City or PSG now Aguero and Cavani are pushing on. Eddy competing with Jesus or Icardi..

    Just imagine how many goals he'd score as well as the linking up..

    Basically my point is * the snake he can go straight to a level above that greasy faced wee * mob..

    I'm not sure he's done enough in a Celtic jeresey as of yet to warrant a new deal, but I take on board the attributes you've listed.

    When Gutman comes in we will have 3 options at LB. But Elyounoussi and Sinclair will be gone next season so we will need to sign a LW and Hayes could work as backup..

    I've got nothing against him just willing him to do better than he has, but appreciate not easy when in and out of squad.
