Anyone suggesting Dembele can replace Cavani is a effing rocket. I love the big man but for eff sake.
Yeah, I didn't like to say it but ffs :lol:

Cavani's probably the best out and out centre forward in the world right now. Dembele's good, but he's not that good.

Most QSG fans would disagree about Cavani and think they need much better. It doesn't mean they would be pleased with
Moussa though. :thumbsup:

I agree with you guys though. They could get anyone they want. Dembele wouldn't be that guy. I know he's young and will improve but a top team like that isn't taking that punt when they can go and get a more established and already better player like an Icardi, Griezmann, Dybala, Kane, Morata, Lukaku etc.

Lukaku is short of that top bracket for me....I'd never pay the £ 70m+ they gave to Everton...much better value elsewhere

It's about 6m at today's exchange rate I think. For every Dembele we have signed a Cole, Balde, Bangura, Pukki, Guidetti, Lassad and probably another couple of imposters I've managed to blank out.

For those prices you don't get the finished article - and certainly not from PSG.

Even going from his first start where he got a goal but the ball was bouncing off him you can see the improvement in this guy where he was full of confidence from the word go.
If Celtic have already agreed a fee then we'll pay it IMO. The deal is as much to protect us as anything else. We saw Dembele being written off by more than a few last year (up to and even after he got his first goal) with plenty concerned about having to rely on him again the zombies when Griffiths was injured.

Since then he's gone on to be 'worth' anything from 20 - 50million, depending on the day of the week and the strength of his hamstring. A hat trick for Edouard against the same mob and a few European goals would have the same effect.

If Celtic can afford it ( we can) and we need a striker ( we will) and the manager rates him highly (he absolutely does) then all this is all moot and fretting about the price tag an unnecessary worry. It's all been taken care of.

The only thing that will change anything is if any of those things above change. As it stands, we have a very good young talent learning the Brendan Rodgers way, just like Ajer, and that's pretty much the perfect situation when you have a functioning conveyor belt of youth players. Comparisons with Tierney don't really work because Izzy, much as I liked him, was ripe for replacing. Even Dembele had to be patient and take his chance when Griffiths got injured.

This is the strongest and most organised we've been when it comes to young players in my memory. It's working a treat and if part of the plan means spending 6m on a player it'll be well thought out .
Leave Lassad out of this.

Knew Brendan would go for him ahead of Griff tonight when required.

Looked good again I thought.

Thought he looked really strong again last night for the brief time I seen him. As much as I love Griffiths, I'd like to see this kid get an extended run in the team to see what he's really capable of. If Dembele goes in the summer and Rodgers sees this guy as a replacement for him, it'd be great to see what we can expect from him and to get him some first team experience now.

With Moussa's fitness in question, we are not going to get the type of fee that looked on the cards on last season's form. But it will more than cover the €8m fee that apparently has been agreed with PSG and the contract that Edouarde will definitely want. He looks to have everything we want in a striker and fair play to whoever spotted him. :thumbsup:

I don't think you have to look too hard at PSG to find the odd good'un. I'd probably take most of their ball boys. :lol:

The point is that PSG are going to struggle to meet FFP. They need to sell players and can't afford to spend £100m on Harry Kane if they want to continue playing in Europe.

These sort of teams will find a way to bend the rules. They always do. And UEFA won't do a thing about it.

I’d start him on Sunday and give him the chance to keep the shirt, if he produces.
