Massive blow. Hopefully it isn't too bad.

We should always have had a quality third striker in the squad anyway, but we need to get the finger out now and get someone in.
Agree with this.

Always thought it was obvious last year if we lost both strikers we were thin on the ground.
I'm pretty sure our manager already knows this.

I'm happy we have someone in charge who doesn't panic sign like previous managers and real quality is pretty difficult to get when they may feel like they'll be 3rd choice if the other two are fit.

I would pony up for Lewis Moult as a third choice. First choice at the moment.

If he's out until September, at least he won't be sold this window...

My cynical mind thinking the opposite. End of august window closes. Be fit or close enough by then.

I'd put money now we won't see him in a Celtic shirt again.

Was thinking he might have the same injury players suffer from in the summer they are sold. McGeady etc.

If we don't make the CL, you may well be right. Otherwise, he will be here.

If a big (over £25 mil) bid comes in you don't think we will take it regardless Remy?

Not sure we could knock that back.

Correct.

Massive blow for Moussa, and for the team.

If, and it's a big if, he is injured again (and possibly showing strain/problems) with the same recurring injury, I'd get punting at £25-30m no problem.

We are not looking like we would ever get that sorted of money again, it's blue moon material.

We could have a scenario whereby the interested parties cool off completely until he shows a period on longevity without relapse.

That might be 12-18 months and who knows what his former may be in that period.

If we wanna think we can match the Ajax/Porto model, then as sad as it is, you strike whilst the iron is hot.

Gutted he ain't around for the qualifiers, he's a massive miss. :(

Not when he's packed up on a treatment table anyway. :(

That really big ££ ain't going to happen in the short term with these hamstring injuries - just too big a risk and really hurts his value.

Rodgers said: "Moussa may well be out for the whole of the campaign, the whole European campaign. We're going to have to adapt, we're hoping Leigh (Griffiths) can come back. We have always been a collective, we're looking for that collective to find solutions for us.

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/celtic-striker-moussa-dembele-ruled-10877234

It looks as though he will not be around for about six weeks and BR has also said that he does not need three strikers, so Griffiths get the medicine men working on your injury.

Says he's in London on his Instagram. I'm assuming he's seeing a specialist and not signing for someone? :lol:

Man city just paid 50+m for a guy who won't play for a few weeks due to a muscle problem, guardiola says it's important he gets fully over it. If a club wants him and they have access to big funds they will still go for him.

I see he's been on Twitter complaining in French about the press telling lies (or, to be more specific, sharing videos of Denzel Washington complaining about the press telling lies). Seems some French journalist has said Dembele wants to go to Marseille. The guy has now backtracked a bit and said Dembele 'hasn't closed the door on a move'.
