We had £30million in the bank with the £31million. We had £18million in 2016. We are banking more money and keeping it. We have needed top quality defenders all that time. Results in Europe show this. We can't keep getting skelped in Europe the way we did, or gambling on qualification playing bit-part midfielders in defence and so on. So if we've had money and didn't spend it on the most glaring part of the team, why would we suddenly spend even more money on a number of players all of a sudden? We'll try to cobble out way through it and then scramble to sign people as if we didn't know the transfer window had a closing date. That's not to say we've not done some great work with the likes of Rogic, Dembele, Edouard, Ntcham etc. It just means that having the money from KT's departure is absolutely no guarantee that we'll do anything with it, glaring hole in the team or not. |

With the CL qualifiers ending after the PL Transfer window, we simply can’t afford to sell him. If he’s desperate to go that much, agree to let him go in January with our best wishes |

You'll be telling us Stuart Armstrong is still a Celtic player, just because the press reported his transfer. |

Pages upon pages of angst here over something which may or may not happen this summer... next summer... the January after etc... Relax and enjoy the warm weather (and the World Cup) till we can get some real football to get exercised about. |

Not at all. Andy Robertson is more composed, has better control and delivers a better cross, pass. Robertson is quicker and more dynamic than KT. However, the reason KT is moved in the national team is because he is more flexible about where he can play. Robertson is the better left back, in my opinion. |

Feck me this Robertson lad sounds like Maldini. One poorish season at Liverpool and they'll be screaming for an Italian or Brazilian full back and Robertson will be going to Everton or Leicester. Still on mega bucks though. |

Andy Robertson is a far poorer defender though and Tierney isn't at the top level yet. |

The rebuild job you seem to think was a masterclass came at a cost - something you are totally ignoring. If we were not to have European football beyond August, how do you think we are going to pay for various players that we now have on £35K plus ? If you can't see that then by all means put me on ignore Edited by Corky Buczek, 2 Jul 2018, 12:16 PM.

But would KT displace Andy Robertson if he were to go to Liverpool tomorrow? I don't think so. |

No, Like others I don't believe half of what is reported as real, particularly when it comes to Scottish football. Leaks, real movements, real news and even the acknowledged hunch, you know when a journalist or reporter state that it’s an opinion, I can accept. If folk can’t see the blatant agendas some media outlets and hacks, they’re not journalists or even reporters, pedal then they deserves BBC Scotland , The Record, The Sun and Pravda. |

Nonsense. On holiday but this deserves commentary. Robertson is a good player granted. Tierney is a much better tackler and positional strength is better. KT outran Sterling im both games especially at Parkhead so unsure how you have came to that one. Not much between them maybe but KT and his all round games is stonger. |

I'd say this summer is the first summer where we are in a position to go and spend the type of money people think we should have been spending for the last 5 years. The money we've spent since Rodgers came in has been fine - there is no indication we are unwilling to spend what we have. It's just an outdated opinion that we are tight with our cash. Rodgers has given most of our players wage increases whilst spending £2.8m on Kouassi, £4m+ on Ntcham, £3m+ on Sinclair, £6m+ on Edouard etc. Last summer Boyata finished the season in great form and Simunovic was worth around £10m to most people. We were in a position where most of us probably thought that if both of them were fit we wouldn't have been looking at a CB as a top priority. Now injuries and a fall off in form this season is undeniable and I'd say we should now actively be looking but it wasn't 'glaringly obvious' that we needed a CB last summer. The only obvious thing was that they were injured and we gambled we'd get through without panic buying a £3-5m defender - and it worked. |

So Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are stunned by Tierney's apparent £50m release clause. GIRUT. |

Do you believe the Tierney stuff is a fabrication of the media?

The point was Tierney is inferior to Roberston... he is not. My point after the season he has had Liverpool would not be looking to replace him and rightly so. Klopp rates him so ge wont be getting replaced this summer. |
