We absolutely should be comparing our transfer fees to the Championship. Players are worth what the two clubs involved agree they are worth. When an English club comes in for one of our players, part of that calculation on Celtic’s side should be benchmarking against what English clubs are paying. We now have enough of a track record of selling quality to the EPL to push our asking prices up. I absolutely agree that we won’t be getting £50 million for Tierney but we should be testing £25 million+. Maddison, who was anonymous in Scotland 18 months ago, is now a £25 million player. We shouldn’t ignore that.
I agree. The days of us selling our top talent down the road for peanuts is well and truly over. If he continues developing at his current rate, performs well in Europe and with Scotland then two years down the road he could quite easily be worth £40m. There’s not many quality left backs kicking about, certainly not in their early twenties with the potential he has. Right now, I’d say £20-25m is more than fair, given as you said Maddison is a £25m player down there. Get a grip! Maddison is worth £25m so £20-25m is fair for Tierney?

He ain't going to Everton. No Bullfrog or Cross Keys in Liverpool. Straight outta Muirhouse. If and when he moves it will be to a better side than Everton.

If we are, and were with Dembele, then that's an absolute disgrace and I can't understand why it would be accepted. It's one thing to allow players to move on at the right time when they want to. But actively looking to punt them, against their will, to mediocre sides, for cash we shouldn't need (given the substantial difference between money brought in and money spent) is a sign that something isn't right.
wow, a hairshirt on a day like this? we are not actively trying to sell Tierney, but we can't stop other clubs sniffing around. Oh, and things are as right as they have ever been. I said 'if'

You don’t get context, being led, missled, or even being made to look silly do you. Just like most hacks. Brendon is good at leading the SMSM, in fact Celtic are nowadays. Let the fools extract what they think they hear or even write what the would love to hear. I for one love the way our club does its business now. We dont do lamb dinners.
I'm being made to look silly? Very good, captain sensible. You read your own posts? I'm going by the manager's words and the posts of a few people more in the know than I am about anything. If the manager doesn't want speculation, he doesn't lead it. He's absolutely opened up the discussion here, not anyone else. The same thing happened with Dembele in January and if you read posts from someone on here who is close to his situation, it wasn't Dembele who was driving at a move to Brighton in January. Until yesterday, I would have said there was absolutely no chance of Tierney leaving any time soon. In fact, I'd argued that he's the epitome of a one-club player. Crap, and nobody is a “one-club player” but anyone, other than a hack with an agenda, who thinks for one second KT is going to Everton for that fee should lie down for a while and stop ready newspapers.

I watched 'Kenny' the other night. It brought back sore memories. His departure felt like the end of us in terms of being a major European force, and sadly it turned out like that as we never (yet) reached another European Cup semi-final - we had made 4 in the previous decade.
Now KT isn't in Kenny's league, but he represents everything good about our great club. Also, he is the future - or so we thought. He is a young man who will anchor 10 in a row, and keep the team and fans tightly together. In my book £25m does not cover all that he brings to the table and team. Just as Kenny was never properly replaced in his generation so I doubt that the money gained would improve the team. Kenny wanted to go; I don't know but I don't think KT wants to leave, not at least before 10IAR. I would be bitterly disappointed, gutted in fact, if he was left to feel the club wanted his departure.

Would you prefer us to bend over and accept a lesser amount when lesser players are going for astronomical sums down there? I don’t want him to leave, certainly not to mid-table shampooe like Everton, so hopefully it’s a lot of pish.

I would be bitterly disappointed, gutted in fact, if he was left to feel the club wanted his departure. If Celtic get offered £25m for any player then it will be accepted I believe. That kind of deal is part of our business model. They could treble his wages and more , so even though KT is a Celt through and through, he would I think find the attraction of the money and glamour of the EPL very difficult to resist. It is one of the top leagues in the world , and Everton is respectable entry point. If he shines in his first season the big boys will be queuing up and he'll go for a bomb.

No, sorry, I made earlier comment that I think Tierney will go for an awful lot more than £25m. He can play LB, CH, RB, LWB and even LW. He's on a 6-year contract. He's captained his club and country, played in Champions League, and won three titles including two trebles. He is in UEFA and FIFA official top ten lists and has been scouted by everyone of note. Has Maddison, by comparison, even had a full season?
