It's the same stuff he's said about Dembele and it's the same stuff Desmond said about Rodgers. We are definitely trying to put across the message that we are a good club for promising young players to be at if they want a move to the biggest clubs in the world. |

I’d be amazed given how Man City play. Given that the weakest aspect of Tierney’s game (for all his talent) is his passing. |

There is nothing new in this -- Brendan Rodgers saw his own playing career cut short before it even got properly started because of injury. He specifically mentioned John Kennedy, to whom the same happened. To Brendan, it IS a moral issue. If KT wants to go and the price is right for Celtic, the club won't stand in his way. That's the same as it's always been. As I said, nothing new. Brendan is making sure that if it is to happen, Celtic will get top dollar and it will be to a bigger club than Everton, I'd hope. In fact, of all the self-styled "big clubs" in England, only Newcastle would be a worse choice, and I'm not even sure about that. KT wants to stay but there's not a Celtic fan in the world who could turn down £80k/£100k a week for four or five years. It was always going to come to this. |

That's the way it is - Brendan is merely reaffirming what we all know. If a club in a top league offers the right fee and wages, most players want to go. Kieran seems to be an anomoly, but knocking back £20-100m in career earning to stay at Celtic would test even the most ardent Celtic fan. We all point to Scott Brown as an example (who wasnt a fan but wanted to stay at the club), but think how much the game has changed financially in the last ten years when Brown as the next big thing. I dont think KT will go to Everton, mind you. But the chat behind these rumours are fair warning he's open to a big move. Edited by oneillsrevolution, 30 Jun 2018, 09:56 AM.

No. The next step for us as a club is to sell our main assets to elite clubs for elite fees. Not to continue selling them to middling clubs for middling fees and hoping for some crumbs from a potential sell-on fee that we have no control over. We need to be the club selling players for £40 million+. In other words, cut out the Southampton/Everton middle man. Edited by Midfield Maestro, 30 Jun 2018, 10:07 AM.

Everton would be a pretty good, and pretty sensible move for him. |

Celtic will accept any huge offer for any of the players, especially if they ask to leave. But I really doubt Tierney wants to go. Not right now anyway. He'll turn down a move and everyone will be happy. Except Everton. |

Maybe not a relegation battle. They should only really flirt with that every five or six years, the same regularity with which they pester the europa league or a domestic cup quarter final. So aye, shampooe. A St Johnstone of the EPL. |

If we get top dollar for KT and he goes to a top English club our recruitment of quality becomes much easier and we are in the money Every cloud |

Asked for opinion on him from the Sunderland fans on ybig.ie, mixed to say the least lol : 'A good player but just plays when he fancies it.' 'Just played well in patches got the ability both ends of the pitch but lacks motivation. Big Sam had him playing well in the EPL ' ' The biggest c*nt in football, I'd actually feel sorry for Rangers if he ended up there never mind Celtic' ' It looked at one point it looked like Kone was going to Everton but when the move didn't happen on many occasions his attitude was questionable and there were times when his 'injuries' were dubious. I would be surprised if Celtic would pay the wages that Kones agent would demand.' I don't like the sound of that however playing for your countries assistant manager in Kolo might motivate him into getting his game together |

But he could do better. If he goes he should hold out for a club where he can shine and personally I don't think it's Everton at the moment. As long as we get the best fee he would probably have most fans goodwill, he can always be back for 16IAR. |
