Big Gordon wanting to speak way Chelsea thoughts?

Unless Rodgers has a quality goalkeeper in mind to bring in I'd be tempted to offer Gordon a better deal than he's currently on. I know not everyone is a fan of his but he's the best we've got at the moment. He's certainly not flawless but I do feel his game has improved from last season. We certainly shouldn't be entertaining £3 million bids for him. Chelsea's are loaded and keepers can play till they're nearly 40.

I understand money talks, but I have to say I was surprised when I read that as well. If that's the case, I would try and get 4 million for him and punt him. We basically saved him from the scrap heap and apart from his first season he has made quite a few mistakes . If he prefers to earn more money while sitting getting splinters in Chelsea good luck to him . My only concern would be the club bringing in another keeper. The only bad buy Brendan seems to have brought in is de vries . Hypothetically, if we could get 4 million for him, add another 2 to it and go out and get a good young keeper .

Very bad news, any money Dorus will be In goal on Sunday? Not a good thought. Not saying Gordon will be away, however is head won't be right!

I say let him go! Try and squeeze as much money out of Chelsea, say 4-5 million. let big de vries have the gloves til the end of the season then buy a keeper in the summer!

If I remember correctly, when CG came to Celtic he didn't get a very good contract as far as £££'s were concerned due to his injury history and the uncertainness about whether he would last. Has that initial contract been improved as time has gone by?

If it hasn't then I would understand his thoughts (if the rumours are true) about wanting to talk to Chelsea. They could easily give him £20k a week or more just to sit on the bench and it's the same old story about loyalty: if a rival company offered you a lot more money to do the same job as you're doing now then you'd have to listen to them.

I'd rather have bailly than de vries if gordan did go which I hope he doesn't but if he does surely Celtic do have keepers that have been on the radar

Regardless of what we are paying him. Chelsea could easily treble it with out even noticing. If I remember correctly Begovic was/ is on 70-80k a week for the same position so they will probably be prepared to pay similar money but pocketing the cash difference between him and Gordon. With that in mind I would agree with comments above. Hold out for 5-6m under the premise that he is instrumental to our squad, let him go. Maybe get a better keeper in, Vrom would be ideal but doubtful, or let our other 2 keepers see the season out given its in the bag already and just hope they do OK in the cup ties.

If he went to Chelsea he would be a cup keeper so would get the odd game.
He would also get the benefit of a decent contract.

I think we should go for boruc if we let CG go, if Bournemouth sign begovic he will be moved to no2.
Would also noise the zombies

any truth in this mornings rumour ed that gordon wants to speak to chelsea?

{Ed007's Note - He can want too but he can't speak to Chelsea without Celtic's permission. As thing stand there's been no formal bid from Chelsea and Celtic have told them Gordon's not for sale
There could be a deal in the pipeline for Bitton though, he's due in London today supposedly to talk to Fulham.}}

Let's just say Biton and Gordon are sold. That will be another window where we have spent less than we have brought in. Let's speculate a bit, the champions league money won't be touched by the looks of things!

Might be good opportunity for Fasan to get a break. If he wants to talk let him go. No player bigger than club

How you keeping ed? Not posted in a while mate
