He will be coming now think it’s pretty much going to happen. Posted it two weeks ago but he had already chatted to the gaffer about coming and was told he was wanted. Will be a good signing IMO. |

Arguably the best player in the league outwith ours. I’m not a big fan but at least we would know what we’re getting and little or no gamble signing McGinn. |

Don't see what we have to lose by signing this lad. He develops into a really good player- we win. He doesn't cut it- we punt- maybe lose a wee bit of money. No big deal. From what I've saw I think he's decent- no more, no less. Think he has potential to get better, so happy to have him. I think we should sign the best Scottish talent as it reinforces the fact that we are the team in Scotland. If they come with a Celtic background then all the better. |

Someone has edited it back to normal. Well almost, they've got him playing for Hibs twice now.

Still waiting on a negative point on signing someone that our captain actually singled out as the best he was up against this year. Oh wait... Idiots! Would not surprise me that they were the same one's to talk down Brown and Griffiths. Basically they think they'll get something right hoping it's soon and even to the detriment of our club. Losers. Watch this signing come back to haunt you as well. Weirdos. |

When I came on here and seen 11 pages of a John McGinn thread.....my first thought was that he'd actually signed, what has happened then? has some ITK poster told us it's a done deal? I don't think any deal with Rod Petrie involved is done until you see the player at C.P. in the hoops....which will be to the dismay of some on here. Personally I think the boy will a good signing through time, has all the attributes and just needs to train and play with better players to get himself up a level... |

We're spending, potentially, £2.5M of our transfer budget on a player we already know won't improve our starting 11. £2.5M is usually a fair whack of our summer spend. We've got £31M in the bank, so maybe this summer will be different.... |

That's a good point about Brown. It is in defence where we are struggling, we should ask Dembele who the best SPL Centre half is he's come up against. I'd like to think we've at least enquired with kilmarnock as to the availability of Gordon Green. |

The best he was up against this year... in Scotland. Pretty sure Rabiot, Draxler & Veratti are out of our price range though. McGinn's shown nothing to suggest that he's better than our current options in midfield. That's the main negative point that most people have, and you can't really argue that it isn't quite an important point. If we sign him, everyone on here who doesn't see the point in signing him wants to be proven wrong. No-one would pick winning a spurious debate on the internet over McGinn becoming a great and successful player for Celtic. If you believe otherwise, then I'm afraid you're the idiot. |

Was Scott McDonald no signed before Brown? Or was it the same summer? Armstrong was woeful in Europe mostly. |

I'm kinda not fussed whether we do or don't sign mcginn... I think there's probably value in buying him for the potential he has.... at worst I Think he'll be a decent squad player for us, but if he improves he could become important to the team. But if we dont sign him, I wont be too bothered. |
