    I imagine he will leave during the summer no surprise there. 2m though I know money is tight but we should easily be getting double that. Hopefully he can continue playing as he has in the last 2 games and go out on a high. His winner in the cup final of the invincible season will always be an iconic moment in our clubs history now. Love watching him in the hoops an absolute joy to watch when on song.

    I'd keep hold of him if we can. The most naturally gifted player in the squad and although he can blow hot and cold, he is capable of unlocking a defence like no-one else. Still only 28, see how he does next season with a decent coach, if he's still not up to it then punt him then.

    He wanted away last Summer. Think it's better to accept he's going to go and wish him well.

    Got that wee bit extra that makes him special but not consistently unfortunately.

    Reckon he would be worth keeping.
    For all his faults, no denying that skill he has, especially against those tight defenses we come up against regularly.

    I'd rather a player who turns up more than a handful of times in a decade. Time to move on.

    True, inconsistent as *, but like Griff, has that ability.
    Never going to build a team around them, but for me, both are worth keeping, for impact when games are tight.

    I’d keep him until his contract expires. Looks to be back up to speed after all his injuries and still has that ability to be a game-changer. I think he is happy enough here and knows he is in his latter years as a footballer and won’t play for a prestigious Club like Celtic again, where silverware is guaranteed every single year and European footballin front of the best fans in the world. He may play in Qatar in the blistering heat and earn a ton of more money, but it just wouldn’t match the prestige with Celtic.

    My fav player but if he's wanting to go then fine, tbh he's gave us great service for a long time.

    For me our most technically.gifted player and we'll need someone of similar knack as there is not another midfielder like him.

    If he stays I'll be more than happy.

    Some of his touches are majestic..

    Pity about his fitness and mobility though..

    Gone soon and we don't have a lot who have his tricks, ability to swivel and move on the ball and strength to match..

    Shame..

    Without him we need to look to bring in someone with a bit of a spark. Probably right he leaves at the summer but will be a loss.

    Given he wanted away at the start of this season I don't see that. I thought he was pretty set on being a bit closer to Australia - although given you can't travel there just now currently I guess that might have changed. Time will tell I guess.

    He wanted away before the rat came in and then wanted away recently by all accounts..

    As good as he is, it's probably time to look for another magician with more mobility and stamina. No easy I know..

    Like big Tam a lot and he’s been a great player for us and scored a lot of cracking, important goals, but I’d actually forgotten he was playing last night before he was subbed. Was completely anonymous (probably owed to a combination of him still not up to match speed due to injuries and too many formation and personnel changes from game to game by Lennon). He’s never been the quickest in terms of pace, but his positioning, dribbling fast feet for a big guy, reading and intelligence of the game and shooting have always been excellent and are why he’s been such an important player for us over the last 5 years. I’d be happy if he stayed.

    I think he is just too inconsitant. I rather have players who puts in 100% in any game rather than Rogic who choses which games to turn up in.

    If the new manager can get the best out of him then we all know how good he can be, but thats a big if. He's the only truly creative midfielder we have. When hes at his best he falls into the Lubo and Nakamura category.
