I think with our style/quality of football we'll always get plenty of goals from a decent central midfielder who can get forward. |

Only reason the dons signed GMS, part of their master plan to secure this guy. Edited by modest mouse, 12 Jul 2017, 06:50 PM.

While I agree that is a factor I think you do Armstrong a bit of a disservice, I think his loss will be a big blow - and not just in terms of goals. He has an incredible engine. |

Erik's been pushing GMS out of the picture anyway, so there's no worries on that score

Even the MON years when we last matched this team for goal an opportunities. Don't think Petrov ever got near 17 in a season. Don't think he's an easy replacement. |

We didn't play the same style of football then. Arguably we had more difficult opponents too, but that's another matter.

Don't think we've had a midfielder as capable from distance with both feet for a long time. |

By now he'll know his worth down south and will be seeing if we can get near it. Hope we can! |

If they are in dispute about money, it'll probaby be over a figure like that. Unless he's asking for stupid money to force a move. |

It really wont be about the difference of the size of GMS's wages. |

Probably not anything that hasn't been mentioned already, but he's definitely going to Southampton. |

Yeah we're all well aware of that, just killing time until Friday by debating whether he's staying or not. Edit: As long as normal Celtic - Soton fee range applies, I'll be happy

It would be, but assuming they pay a decent wedge, we'll not only survive, but possibly prosper. He could do very well down there, could be good for both. If we get (for talking's sake) 8m from Soton, we should be able to replace with better and have some change left over. If our recruitment guys are switched on obviously. This is now our model, we need to get used to it. Disappointing when VVD left, Forster, Wanyama. As long as we recruit well we improve. |

The difference is we all expected Armstrong's big move to be to us and for him to develop for us. It's a kick in the teeth but we'll make a substantial profit and if it turns out a few thousand quid was the difference then it's poor from us. |
