Personally think Celtic will struggle to sell Dembelle now and may have to hold onto him long term. Which I think will please most Celtic fans and BR but not the board.

You need to be trying to sell in order to struggle zikos. I’d love him to stay but there’s zero chance because he’s one of the best young strikers in Europe.

Moussa is only 21 and has scored 40 goals with 12 assists in 70 games for us, that's a great record. He had only scored 19 in 64 first team games before joining us, I fail to see how we would struggle to sell him considering his record was worse before joining us and even at that time he had huge clubs chasing him.


3.) 01 Jan 2018 18:24:38
I just don't see any teams parting with the money that Celtic will want for him unless its made up of add-ons. I don't see how the fee can be justified when LG is clearly a better striker and anyone that scouts him will know that, not to mention his injury problems. Unfortunately due to the obvious lack in quality of our league transfers to the EPL will always be deemed high risk and especially for the money Celtic are wanting.

Virgil went from 60million in summer to 75million now. Virgil has had a terrible season so far.

We shouldn't condider anything less than 25 for moussa. Boys been injured, he's young and can score goals.

Pulis was on tv saying he was kicking himself for not buying vdv for £6m.
Scout who brought him to Celtic was on saying good things.
The old 'plays in Scotland' negative isn't holding as much water as it used to. Plus the other factor no-one has mentioned. If you fart in the e&wpl you get £100m, this year and the year after and the year after.
So £25m to a Brighton or palace or stoke isn't all that much of a gamble never mind arsenal level who are letting 100m worth of talent walk away in the summer for 0 if they are not careful.

Sorry to burst the Moussa bubble but I agree with Zikos, there is no way we are getting £25mill for Moussa. Since he came back from injury he has not looked the same player and this Chelsea offering £40mill in summer is daft talk. I don't think we will get any bids for Moussa this January and if we do sell him in the summer he would need to have a decent run into the end of the season and I can't see him replicating the form of last season. Maybe £15mill in the summer but not much more. None of the top 8 clubs would risk him, so you are now looking at mid table to bottom table PL clubs and they don't take £25mill punts. there are several forwards out there right now who you could buy for half that figure who have scored more in better leagues than Moussa. Not saying he is not a player with great potential but when we go out and get humped 7-1 and 5-0 in CL company then our achievements in Scotland are tainted so no one considers that anyone in Scotland is any good. Look at Moult from Motherwell. Since 2015 he has turned out 86 times, scored 49 goals. Sold to Preston North End for £500k. In any other league he would be getting bought for millions, but he did it in Scotland so £500k it is. Everyone has an opinion so only time will tell.

Interesting to see Salzburg and Leipzig drawn in the same group. Thought that would have been prohibited to have two teams owned by the same company taking part in the same competition due to a conflict if interests. What would happen if Leipzig have qualified and Salzburg need them to lose to qualify, can imagine and entire team getting rested!

zikos

1.) 31 Aug 2018 21:35:54
Not both owned by same people.
Ed 002 explained it earlier.


2.) 31 Aug 2018 22:30:24
Apologies didn't see eds post, still must a conflict of interests though given the fact Salzburg are Leipzig's feeder club and therefore have deep ties.

Ed, not watching the game but see hibs are getting beat at home by a lesser Greek team, you still thinking Celtic will pump the Greek champions easily?

zikos

{Ed007's Note - And the winner of the Most Pointless & Stupidest Post of the Week goes to.......

via GIPHY


1.) 26 Jul 2018 21:31:21
Yeah cause Hibs are rank and it’s now 2-2 😂😂😂.

{Ed007's Note - And I'd guess for 80 mins tonight Aberdeen would have beat Man Utd....


2.) 26 Jul 2018 21:37:51
My point is you seem to think that AEK will be a walk over even though the Greek league has been ranked above the Scottish league (I'm guessing on your age) probably as long as you have been alive.

You base this on all the Greek football you watch. I smell P@#h.

{Ed007's Note - I'd go and get changed before you start getting nappy rash btw, don't sit there like that - oh and have a word with your doctor, that sounds like it could be prostate trouble.}

Bet Zikos wishes he'd shut his gob 😂😂😂.

Zikos you pleb! 😂😂😂.


5.) 26 Jul 2018 21:40:58
Hibs are winning 🤣🤣🤣 watched Aberdeen v Burnley good game for a neutral considering the epl money.


6.) 26 Jul 2018 21:42:21
3-2 to Hibs.


7.) 26 Jul 2018 21:47:02
Zikos they ain't even the best team in greece. They won the league because the other team got deducted points.
Plus hibs just won from 0-2 down 😂😂.


8.) 26 Jul 2018 21:47:31
Hibs won 3-2. Sorry Ed your right Greek football is s@#t!

Let's not talk about AEK and concentrate on who Celtic will get in the next round and obviously the group stages!

{Ed007's Note - I'm just wondering if Ronaldo will take Juve all the way to play us in the final.}


9.) 26 Jul 2018 22:10:01
If you ever set up AEK rumours site you’re at least guaranteed one dedicated fan mate🙄.

{Ed007's Note - :-D


10.) 26 Jul 2018 22:18:42
A think it’s a certainty.

{Ed007's Note - Ronaldo and Pogba together...... ;) Big Ntcham will torture Pogba (yes) and if we use Gamboa to man mark Ronaldo we'll stroll it.}


11.) 26 Jul 2018 22:40:24
Olympiakos till I die I'm afraid.


12.) 26 Jul 2018 23:01:58
Kev83 they may not be the best team in Greece, but they won the league which generally means they were the best and most consistent team over the season.

Btw I think Celtic will win, I just don't think it will be easy unless their new manager tries to change everything. It's ed that thinks it's going to be a walk in the park.

{Ed007's Note - Where did I say that? I said it'll be tough over there but I can't see us losing either leg so get your facts right before you try and take a pop at me and make yourself look even more of a tit than you already have tonight.}


13.) 27 Jul 2018 01:36:54
Zikos pick your battles mate and if they where the most consistent team they would have but that's not what happened don't and you know that I hear sudocream is good for nappy rash hh.


14.) 27 Jul 2018 13:57:11
Ties are as hard as you make them . Rosenborg are really no soft touches, they are limited especially going forward but Celtic taught them a football lession over 90 mins and with a half a team missing .
Getting set- up right ( which we did after 25 mins ) our pace and hard work destroyed them and we could have easily scored a half doz goals in second half .
I am still convinced our line-up from the start moved their centre defenders towards their right and they never really got their defensive balance right.

With Edouard testing positive, do all players that have been in contact with him more than 15mins (as per test and protect) have to isolate for 14 days or because of the sport do they just do additional tests and go from those results?

If the former then it could be a seriously weakened team for the old firm match.

Apparently the gentleman that sanctions the loan deals in MLS has a cousin that is a season ticket holder at Ibrox sitting beside Andrew Dallas's uncle!

I would have thought he would have been on more than that tbh as Celtic bought him when his stock was high, albeit playing in the championship.

Totally agree with bobcat, he would easily push Scott brown out if the team. Before I'm slated, I think Brown is a really good SPL player. But when he isn't fouling players, what does he actually bring? People say he keeps the ball moving which is fine but anyone can do that when every single pass is sideways. Genuinely think Ncham is 10 times the player. Box to box and think mcginn would have been similar.

If he has any ambition he will try and play at the highest possible level and that isn't the SPFL!

Ed are you seriously saying he should not have stood up for someone when witnessing an assault?

zikos

{Ed007's Note - Of course he should have but he didn't as it was Zaluska that was assaulted, Paton was fined £500 after he admitted the offence so Wilson didn't exactly stick up for the person who was assaulted on the night or in court.
Mark Wilson also failed to mention the part Chris McCluskey played in the assault of Zaluska.
What part of that is difficult for you to understand?}

Calmac challenge was red - no doubts. Although in real time looked a yellow, especially the fact that Calmac bounced back up pretty quickly.

Livi players actually injured Hagi!

If we had VAR, think it would have shown that the armpit was offside.

Behave yourself if you think Abada challenge was a red! He should have been booked for diving!

Therefore, Yes! you are totally paranoid!

Celtic need to score a min of 2 to 3 goals every game to win a match because the defender is so bad. That’s not sustainable.

Remember that players didn’t amass the same amount of caps as now a days. Don’t think they got caps for friendlies or for substitute appearances? So 20 odd is probably a decent tally from back then.

My bad, super lightweight and light welterweight are the same thing! Apologies.

But totally agreed on his performance last night. Great fight and his stats are impressive as well.

Never been out down as a pro or amateur and I think in his last 6 fights he has beaten 5 world champions.

Great performance by Josh Taylor last night, one of the UK’s finest.

But he is actually a light welterweight. Not sure there is such a class as a super lightweight? Maybe in the olympics?
