This would be signing most if all Celtic fans would be happy with. Would take this over all the names mentioned and say best window in many of years. Hail hail.

Guys, i have said on several occasions that Roberts is the guy we want to get on a permanent deal. He is here, can see the set up, and is getting game time ( and I know that`s part of the loan deal ) . Mt thoughts are that, he will get little or no game time in the 1st team regardless of how well he does at CP.

Im sure a deal can be done and I know that any transfer will be a bucket load ( and a lorry load by our standards ) .
So to the powers that be:
You got us the Manager and a few players to boot,
now get us the star and spend some of your loot.

HH.

For me it's also a priority signing. Got a contract till 2020 and city payed 12 million back then so unfortunately can't see that happening. Would be well invested money we could ask for.

Was it not 6million with addons taking it to a possible 12 million
City are trying to get young English talent though due to epl restrictions and with brexit the epl can enforce the 5 foreigners rule as uk won't fall under eu employment laws.

They paid 4m with add ons up to 12m
The add ons would have been for premier lge starts England call up ect.

So don't think they've paid anymore than the 4m

Think we could get him for 4/ 5m with add ons up to 5/ 6m.

City didn't pay 12 upfront.
No way is the EPL ever going to enforce the 5 foreigner rule.

City paid 4 million upfront with add ons taking it to 12million I think we could get him for 6/ 7m8llion and that would be money well spent.

IMO I don't think BR will be looking at trying to get Roberts on a permanent until the next window as we have him already so I think he will try to get a player in on a position he feels is weak and hope to progress to the last 16 then try MC out for a permanent basis.

For me if possible we make Roberts signing our top priority, getting him on a long term contract, knowing the talent he has at such a young age, his value will soar n 4 me he would b a certain starter always.
I'd have him on a permanent if it meant nobody else coming in I rate him that highly.
He could easily score 15 to 20 a season n assist some amount 2.
Hail hail.

Tony

For me that is a risky strategy. There were already talks/ rumours that Villa and Newcastle were interested in buying him late last season.

If we want him we have to do it now as after he tears it up for another 6 months there will be a queue of teams willing to give him twice the money we can.
