Right lads so spurs in to take Kyogo hatate and ccv in a triple swoop ? should we say 80 million for all 3 and buy 4 twenty million pound replacements.

Frank it never works like that
Celtic will NEVER spend £20m each on four players, and think of wages these £20m players would want too, Astronomical
There are lots of young up and coming players Celtic can sign, added to 2/ 3 experienced players but NOT at those figures, I would imagine that £8/ £10m would be our limit, and even then our Board would want value for that kind of outlay.

{Ed007's Note - Even going by the rates of inflation it is an absolute 100% certainty that Celtic will spend £20 million on a player as a norm, in time it'll be £50 million etc etc
I still remember the shockwaves of Gianluigi Lentini moving to AC Milan for £13 million, when Roy Keane (Peace be upon Him) getting £50k a week at Man Utd, when did the old Rangers spend £12 million on Flo and we paid Robbie Keane £65k (?) a week?
Eventually spending £20 million on a player will be the same as paying say £5 million, most of us will not be around to see it but eventually Celtic will spend £50, £70 and even £100 million on a player while the rest of Scotland are paying the likes of £15 - £20 million on a player as a norm.
Before MON came in Timbo did you ever think Celtic would spend £5/6 million on a player never mind the £9 million record on Edaourd?}


2.) 25 Jun 2023 23:14:30
But the whole possible deal starts on SMSM nonsense of Spurs buying 3 Celtic players at massive money . That’s pie in the sky to start with so everything else is pure nonsense.


3.) 26 Jun 2023 09:48:26
Bang-on CC and unfortunately these mischief makers plant the seeds and our anti-Celtic horde in the media have it growing arms and legs. It's very rare for a top EPL club to buy one (usually Celtic) player, so I would find it incredible if they were to target three?!
Unfortunately, it creates attention and possible unrest, but at the end of the day those players who want to play for Celtic will stay and those who have their heads turned will go for a healthy profit.


4.) 26 Jun 2023 09:29:01
ED007 I was talking about next 2/ 3 years, yes no doubt inflation will cause fees to rise and then £20m, £50m etc by Celtic will happen but still a wee bit away.
What I CAN see happening quicker is say Celtic allow Kyogo to go for £25m+ then plough cash back in wages for a Dembele type player, free agent so no transfer fee so give him £100k+ week wages
That scenario surely has been contemplated already by our Board.


5.) 26 Jun 2023 16:15:11
But why shouldn’t Celtic be signing players at that price if they have the right quality and have massive sell on potential aswell if teams in England are buying 18 year olds for 20 million at a time surely we could Hoover up a few great young players with potential for 10-15 million if they can make us megabucks in the future I’m not saying we should stop buying I’m the price bracket we are now but we could push the boat out if we stay in cl for few years as we have and have plenty money in the bank we could even do what Chelsea are doing on 8 year deals and pay up over time so the outlay is a lot less than the actual transfer because it’s spaced out.

Celtic have bid 1.5 million with add ons for 18 year old French right back from Rennes called Brandon soppy have watched a few clips he looks rapid with a good touch good to see Celtic still looking to bring in young talent even with this crisis going on.

Right I had to say something it's been annoying me for years why do we only seem to splash out on Irish, now I love the republic but first and foremost we are a Scottish club with Irish routes we only seem t oi spend big on wages for Irish coaches and players let Irish coaches spend big money on players and seem to only try to keep the young players that are Irish am I missing something or am I spot on in my thinking the dermot wants a team with a lot of Irish players we don't even do a lot of scouting in Scotland we buy league or Ireland players who aernt good enough and now young vata being offered a contract ok he has potential but there have been plenty others with that or more potential yet he's now changed allegiance to republic so we want to keep him maybe I'm just overthinking but it's starting to grate on me what u lads thjnk?

CELTIC_FRANK

1.) 01 Feb 2024 13:07:31
Other than scales who cost peanuts can't think of many more irish players in last few years. mccarthy was a disaster mj never plays and we never bought him vata another youth product and idah is a loan.


2.) 01 Feb 2024 13:16:44
DD paid a big chunk of Robbie Keanes' wages before FFP. Apart from that, what you're saying is nonsense.


3.) 01 Feb 2024 13:28:36
Think lennon was our biggest irish outlay and 1 of the best players we've signed in 20 odd yrs.


4.) 01 Feb 2024 13:51:37
Might be worth pointing out frank that those Irish managers oversaw 5/ 8 trebles and some of our best performances in Europe in the modern era. I don't really see us splashing cash on any Irish player, except Lennon and Keane as mentioned, and think we probably have let more good Irish players leave our youth set up such as Given. Also since year 2000 we probably have signed as many Irish as Swedish or Japanese lol.


5.) 01 Feb 2024 14:02:18
Vata declared for. Ireland yrs ago . There has always been a perception that Celtic youngsters were not given an even chance of playing at school boy and youth levels . Wasn’t that why Aidan Mc Creadie chose Ireland . I don’t think we are over loaded with Irish Coaches . We have O’Dea and then we have Brendan Rodgers Brits/ Irish ????. We have Kennedy, Strachan, and Woods Scottish . Don’t forget there is more Irish money than any other Nations money . Wee Fergus opted for that and he didn’t even like us.


6.) 01 Feb 2024 14:26:50
My mates and I have often discussed why we don't seem to recruit really good young Scots talent in recent years. There was a time when we had a first team and reserve team 95% Scots.
I don't know the answer Frank, but I'd love a team of homegrown talent that we could be proud of.
Buzz will know, what is the most we have paid for a Scottish player?


 

 

26 Nov 2023 10:48:24
Me and many others were dubious about rodgers coming and for good reason we all knew he was a yes man we all knew he would have us playing slow passing football I’m sorry the game has moved on teams press high and don’t allow you that time on the ball especially in Europe and we don’t have the players to play how Brendan wants and tbh I don’t want the players to have to watch a team play slow unattractive football and chick crosses in that no one gets on the end of it’s pointless even putting a cross in when you’re main man is just a touch bigger than a dwarf I knew this would happen and I’m sticking to my guns he never should have got the job and he’s not good enough for it the league isn’t enough I don’t want to watch us get embarrassed in champions league we need a proper manager not an Irish yes man who’s best pals with the board and owner and has seen us regress both on and off the pitch.

Where have you seen this? only thing i can find is he's returned to celtic.


2.) 21 Jun 2023 10:23:33
He's back at celtic getting treatment on an injury. there's nothing about him away.

Moutinho Diego costa Johnny evans would anyone take any of these guys? they're all out of contract.

1.) 17 Jun 2023 00:08:58
Jonny Evans seriously, I’d rather have Dale Evans (Roy Rogers wife) .


2.) 17 Jun 2023 08:45:20
While they were all great players in their day, their day has came and gone. Don't see any benefit of us signing them now.


3.) 17 Jun 2023 10:25:31
I would rather have the guy that runs Evans bike shop.


4.) 17 Jun 2023 10:46:47
Hi All
New poster long time reader.
Id prefer Dembele Firmino Elyounoussi. All out of contract.


5.) 17 Jun 2023 15:57:07
DT, all will get offers I suspect, probably more than we could offer them but I'd take a chance on Aamy of them on their day.


 

 

10 Jun 2023 16:27:25
Got a question for you Ed do you think the new manager is going to get anything that was promised to ange or do u think we will downsize again in terms of wages and player quality?

CELTIC_FRANK

{Ed007's Note - I'm sure the new manager will receive the same backing in the transfer market as every other manager has been, it's how the money is spent that has let us down.
We need to downsize in terms of wages as our wage bill is ridiculously high for the return we are getting in Europe, we spend £10+ million a year more than Ajax on wages and we struggle to get beyond Christmas in Europe.}


1.) 10 Jun 2023 20:37:07
I didn’t know that cheers mate we should clear the deadwood there’s maybe 12 squad players there that we should sell or let go that would free up a lot of wages but I was also on about the upgrades to Lennoxtown and the barrow field revamp Ronnie mentioned barrow field when he was manager but nothing has happened.

{Ed007's Note - Those type of upgrades shouldn't be down to any manager, Ronnie and Rodgers spoke about improvements like Ange and some were implemented but not many of the major ones. Decisions about these type of changes should be down to a DOF and the board, managers should have an input but as we've learnt this summer we can't put all our eggs in a manager's basket, there needs to be staff in place to help the continuity of the Clubs philosophy.}


2.) 10 Jun 2023 21:07:53
Very true cheers mate.

{Ed007's Note - ??


3.) 11 Jun 2023 19:33:58
Ed Rodgers started that when he was here, he made improvement off the field, which Ange carried on. NL didn't do anything. Like you it is BR for me as he knows the club, the people in and around the stadium and even though he left after a fall out with PL, he would be dealing with Nicholson now.

{Ed007's Note - ???

Ronnie did plenty for celtic a lot more than rodgers ever has in terms of the academy and under severe financial restrictions rodgers got edouard our record signing where as Ronnie got boerrigter no contest Ronnie much better at running a club on a budget rodgers football also terrible if not worse than Ronnie’s.

He’s playing out his skin popping up in the box scoring goals creating plenty he’s big and good on the ball exactly what most of us have been saying we need in midfield a bit of dig maybe next year he plays the cdm role in a midfield 3 of lawal Mcgregor and hatate because oriley will be off in the summer.

He was labeled a Wonderkid not long ago and the future of German football by a few had lots of potential never fulfilled it but maybe at Celtic he will find a home.

He could be a great player for celtic if he gets the chance can play left and right back but Kwon is one of them if he was made of chocolate heed eat himsel guy looks like bang average player at best and talking about moving to the epl or Germany before even playing a competitive game is not only disrespectful it’s just lies he’s sh**e.
