what about someone like Pavyluchenko or Owen used to do it too maybe a nice comeback is in order...i believe they would be in our price range and add some euro experience...
saw helder postigas name in pro evo last night
forgot he even existed

I would love to see pav at celtic park, his wages would be astronomical tho, way beyond robbie keanes.

i remember years ago we had a chance of signing him for about 2-3m, then a couple of years later he went to spurs for about 15m {Ed007's Note - Keane was on of Spurs highest earners. Harry Redknapper is always moaning about the strict wage structure.}

I thought pavyluchenko was on more, i remember he scored a hat trick a few years ago, maybe just after he signed, and the commentator said something like 'well that was worth 100k'. might be because of goal bonuses though, but he'll still be out of our price range {Ed007's Note - Keane and Crouch were their highest earners on £65K a week, since then Modric (from £45k to £90k) and Bale (from £35 to £70k) are their top earners. They broke the £65k a week mark to stave off interest in Modric from Chelsea and in Bale from just about anyone. I'd hazard a guess Pavlyuchenko is on about £60k a week.}

Bet ur happy about Bale being on such high wages Ed? I know how much u luv him ?!?
Lol
CB ;) {Ed007's Note - He is one of the most over rated players in the EPL, wait till he loses his pace and he will be rank.}

Heard that the lad Ibrahim has really impressed on his trial and it looks likely that he will be offered a contract.
Personally I'm not sure abnout this one. I do like cultured midfielders but can't see someone as small as this lad being able to handle the cloggers of the SPL.

Also heard the jury is still out on the other lad Sigurdsson. His people have other trials lined up for him and we might hold off to see how they turn out.

Looks decent

Also heard good things about Ibrahim, but he's in an area of strength for the team. If he's not playing he might not be happy (seeing as he arranged to cancel his contract with Feynoord to get first team playing time). Sigurdsson is an area where I think we need help - an out and out winger would be useful when the inevitable injuries and suspensions pile up in February and March

Both really impressive and young should sign both,,,wages wouldnt b 2 much,,,plus being so young would have sell on value,,,,win-win

Nigel Adkins wants hooper at southampton for 6m,
Steve

I like the way it is being reported that Celtic are playing "hard to get" regarding Hooper by Southampton, not sure they understand the term "not for sale"...

Thats possible, but then again lots of clubs would like Gary Hooper.

I would like Messi and Ronaldo at Celtic but it aint going to happen.

Hooper wont be at Celtic forever but im sure he will be here a few seasons yet and once he does go it will be for a hell of a lot more than 6m

I would take that for hooper as i think he's got a wee bit lazy lately.also heard lenny was raging at him getting his agent up to extend a contract with nearly two years left on it.

A hell of a lot more than 6million what you expecting to see?
Tt

What he wants is immaterial mate. Add another few million on then we might consider. This guy has now proved himself at each level he's stepped up to. Still only 24 as well. Re contract, why shld NL b raging? He's done a great job, proven that he's the real deal, wants to commit for long term n justifiably shld b given a better wage

If jelavic is worth 10 mil (according to some but not me) then we shood be asking for 10 mil for hooper who is a better player IMO
davie c

That last comment is laughable...

If cahill is only going for 7 mill regardless of time left on contract hooper and jelly are not worth 6mill let alone the stupid amounts being quoted on here

Cahill's contract is up in the summer so you cant really compare the deals. If Cahill still had years on his contract he would be going for 20million plus.

Mac

Yeah but cahills a better player than hooper and jellyfish put together {Ed007's Note - Says who?}

Cahills average but gets overrated because he plays in the mon£y league and is english

Yeah IMO Chris Samba at Blackburn is a better CB. Don't understand why Chelsea would rather have Cahill.
