The Celtic Thread

Celtic will sell. £25m is slightly overpriced in my reasoning for what KT has achieved in his career to date and his injury history.....

Reports saying the Gooners have withdrawn interest in KT hopefully they are accurate.

Also, last year was the first year since 2002 that they hadn't made a profit (lack of CL football can be labelled as the reason). So I'd imagine the club don't have as much money to pay out as previous years, especially as Kroenke doesn't seem to want to put his hand in his own pocket, which he can do without breaching FFP rules. There should be a level of realism among Celtic fans though. No club is going to pay over 25-30m for a player playing in the SPL. wan bissaka with 25 games going for £50m no european experience KT has his price and £25m is fair doesnt matter where he plays  robertson at liverpool played for amateurs queens park not so long ago  not celtic's fault if arsenal cant manage their finances  I have never seen him play and only going on what you fans say, but why isn't there other clubs looking to buy him??  spurs dont need city dont need united happy with fat arse shaw liverpool have robertson  chelsea i think are covered also  he is good enough for the top 6

Lennon said he hoped the club had fended off Arsenal's interest in Kieran Tierney.

He said: "It's as you were really. I've had no information other than there were two bids that came in from Arsenal that were rejected.

"There has been no further inroads into that really.

"We're in a good position. We have got no intentions of selling, he's on a long-term contract and we want him to progress with us.

"Our valuation of Kieran wasn't met and it's as simple as that.

"You will see other transfers not going through because valuations haven't been met. It's not a case of Arsenal being disrespectful.

"They put a bid in that they valued the player at. They came back again and obviously see Kieran as a very good player as we do. But on a long-term contract, we're in a very strong position when it comes to Kieran."

Heading over, looking forward to being back at paradise! Hopefully finish the tie tonight 

Would love a 4/5 nil hammering with Édouard getting a hattrick

Excellent stuff last night

Christie was unstoppable

Does Luca Connell have any hope in getting some first team minutes this season?
