For Allen see McGregor. . .. no?
No. .. ...?
They are not similar players in terms of style?. . . and i'm talking about when McGregor plays central.

Joe Allen being linked with us on twitter
Don't think he and Brendan got on so well as time went on at Liverpool. Wages would be out of our league anyway.

Allen has a 25m fee on his head and his wages will be way out our league, very good player but never going to happen.

If he was on 50000 last season hes likely on 25000 now. Most of the lower half teams in the EPL have pretty brutal wage cuts built into their contracts in the event of relegation.

Dont think we'll sign him though, they'll be looking for silly money.

Aye right, after two trebles? Allen and a host of other top stars will be banging their managers doors down to get s move to Celtic. Money isn't everything.

The Allen chat is right out the Lying King / Jabba / Devlin playbook.

Couldn’t get near the fee or his wages. Also, the hell would Stoke loan a player they could easily Sell for good money?

It’s a ridiculous one.

He's a good player on good wages, but he's not out of our reach if the player is determined. We'll be paying nearly 10m for Ntcham if all goes to plan, same with Eddie. Structured deals are doable, and we've shown we're happy to pay a decent prem wage to the right player under Brendan. Add their wee bromance to the mix and you've got a mibby possibly could well be.

Allen will end up at a mid-table EPL club. Don't think the finances are there for us to be able to attract him.

He'll probably only be on about half a million basic more than our top earners are at the moment. It'll be a fee that's the problem if we do want him.

I agree however he's been there and done that, after Liverpool that is probably the limit of his ambitions down south. If he fancies a new and different challenge (I understand he would have to be really keen to take a hit financially), winning trophies and playing Europe again in his prime then we can offer him that. If it's just a money decision then that's that as you say.

He's a good age, has plenty top level experience which is an area we are lacking, he would be an exciting addition and important in Europe you'd feel.
