I wonder what his situation would be right now if Griffiths had never gotten injured. I don't think he'd have started against the huns, and I don't think he'd have started any of the CL games.
Similar sort of story to Wanyama.
What other clubs were sniffing around him in the summer?

Hate all this 'he's going to get us some cash' chat, I couldn't care less if we get 20 million or 2 million for him.

I just want him to stay at Celtic for as long as possible. I'm definitely going to make the most of him while he's here, boys a class act :thumbsup:

In a nutshell.

Best player on the park last night.

That's a bit shortsighted. If we can get that kind of money for him and Rodgers gets to spend it we're going to have a cracking team. If we get 2 million for him? Not so much.

Who cares though? It's way down the line so deal with it at the time.

Dembele scores twice in Europe and the place is littered with folk going on about how much money he'll get us when he inevitably leaves.

Okay, maybe I've not explained myself well. What I hate is as soon as we have an exceptional talent everyone's mind turns to 'think how much we will get for him in x amount of years'. I understand that's how we have to work but people should just enjoy the absolute talent we get to witness week in week out instead of stressing over a potential profit in a couple of years time .

I really doubt that he'll be here any longer than the likes of VVD or Victor and it could well be less. Best just to enjoy what he can offer while he's here, as you rightly say.

It's not just about knowing that one day we'll be getting a lot of money for him, it's about knowing that we've got a player who's good enough that he could realistically command a fee of £20m in the squad. Even allowing for the massive inflation in football over recent years, that's not the sort of thing we've been able to say very often.

CL group stage participation rules out the need to sell - Rodgers is here to build - I don't think he will want Dembele being sold until he (Dembele) has done his three years and then if Dembele is not wishing to resign going into that fourth year of his contract then Celtic cash in.

Also Rodgers has proven he knows the scene and who is available (albeit the jury is well out on DDV) so hopefully he can come up with similar gems to Dembele,Toure and Sinclair.

Enjoying him while he's here and discussing his value aren't mutually exclusive.

He's going to be a superstar and I wouldn't be surprised if he's courted by the top teams in the summer.

Let's just talk about what the boy is doing on the park for Celtic now and until he leaves. We will worry about now much we get when he goes.
Incidentally I remember back to the days we were all worried about Charlie Nicholas and then Paul mcstay going to England. We just worried about them going on those days - don't remember too may Celtic supporters worrying about how much we would get. Changed times.

Talk of million pounds transfers is ridiculous. If he continues the way he has been doing over the next season or two then yes. He looks brilliant but a bit of sense, yeah?

It's likely to be 2 years as his value will be a lot less if he only has a year left on his contract.

Unless he signs an extension :pray:

Jesus, there would be bickering here even if we won the CL.

He is a very special player who is likely to become world class.

He has had a wonderful few weeks, topped off by being the star player in a game widely recognised as the best CL group game in years, thrusting him into the spotlight.

One of his biggest fans is the current manager of Real Madrid.

He is certain to be on the radar of all of the richest clubs in Europe.

We will thoroughly enjoy having him for however long he is here, but it is inevitable that large amounts of cash are going to be dangled in front of him, and the club, all too soon.

Given this reality, speculation as to the amount of money which will be offered is inevitable.
