    What medical did he fail, if your talking about Brugge that was because of wages.

    There were a few reasons reported.

    One was that spurs wanted Brugge to pay money that they owed Wanyama, another reason the deal fell through is it was reported that his medical went so badly that they asked Wanyama to pay his own medical cover.

    I would love a fit Vic, but I'm afraid I'm not for taking a risk on his knee for this kind of money. Some fans are and that's fine, but at the end of the day Celtic themselves will decide if this is a goer or not.

    Can you post some evidence of this failed medical please? Vic was over there the fee was agreed but he never signed even though Brugge pushed until deadline hour. That doesn’t sound like a medical to me.

    You have the same info as me, no one knows exactly what happened unless you were in the room. So everyone is going on reports. And there were reports that he was asked to pay his own medical cover. That doesn't happen if you pass your medical.

    Are you telling me that his knee is good? Can you share that evidence?

    Well you were the one that quoted he failed his last medical, now either you have that information or you are pulling it out your * to suit your argument.

    It seems to be an open secret that Wanyama won’t be the same player due to his knee.

    Daniel Levy is desperate to get rid of him.

    I know a few Irish Spurs fans, and they seem to know for definite that he has a serious issue with his knee. Similar to Ledley King.

    Supposedly he will never pass a medical if a large fee is involved. Although a club may take a punt.

    I think the lack of interest is proof in itself.

    A Big Black Machine with a dodgy knee is still fitter and stronger than most players in Scotland * the medical and bring him home.

    Even mentally it will win us points. Think about it. We skinto sevco FC hear were bringing big champions league finalist wanyama, the barcelona destroyer home. Theyll * it, and go on a downer. The signing alone without kicking a ball would win us this league.

    Ahh the good old Chinese whispers. :56:

    Why wouldn't the Irish spurs fans have access to his medical records.

    You said it was because of wages. Where's your evidence or are you just pulling that out your * to suit YOUR argument? Nobody knows for sure why the deal fell through. He's * crocked and nobody will touch him for a large fee, and if he wasn't there would be a long line of clubs wanting him and happy to spend the money. There's nobody knocking at his door. Someone, maybe even us will take a chance, but it won't be for big money. Maybe on a pay as you play basis.

    I posted a link that said Wanyama wasn’t happy with taking a wage cut, you actually claimed he failed a medical so could you provide the evidence of this?

    Also- we took risks on injury-prone players before. Gordon was largely fit with us. If we wanted to, we could try with Wanyama. It's Lawwell who's the obstacle.
