Oooft naw mate. I appreciate the sentiment and while I'm not ready to throw KT under the bus he would be leaving the job he started well short of legendary status. |

A man who has stayed despite abuse from his own supposed fans, then learned and played centre half to dig us out of a hole rather than pissing aff to Real Sociedad or whoever it was wanted him. That's more of a legend. Not a megaphone in sight either. Humble. |

It's not a team that he will be winning things with or playing in Europe. If I was in KTs position I wouldn't be leaving for it. He had the chance to do everything that most of us ever wanted to do. 10 in a row, future captain and to give all that up for Everton leaves a very bitter taste. Atletico Madrid I would have said fair enough but not this. |

He doesn’t have to stay at Everton forever. As Lukaku, Fellaini and Rooney can testify, it’s an established stepping stone to Old Trafford. |

They appear to have ambitions to go beyond mid table and their recent spending would indicate that. Their average attendance of just under 40k is about the capacity of their (admittedly sub par) stadium. I've been to Goodison a couple of times - Everton are a big club playing in one of the most attractive leagues in Europe. The way some people are talking you'd think he was leaving for League One or something. |

If he goes, he goes. However, I see a young guy, lives with his folks, goes to watch his mates playing on Sunday for the local pub and I definitely have reservations about him adjusting to life away from his local environment. Even just a couple of hundred miles away. Add to that playing for a team who are going to lose as much as they will win, and with the exception of a couple of seasons in the eighties that has always been the case in my lifetime (I'm fifty), and I see problems ahead for him. In my view he'd be better, for his own sake, waiting a few years. A wrong move at the wrong age to the wrong club will seriously harm his career. It has happened to players much better than him, e.g. Charlie Nicholas. Celtic's forward planning here also is far from perfect. |

We're going to be a weaker team this season and he's sending a signal that it's not that hard to leave Celtic whenever you fancy it. I think it's fair to consider whether BR will stick around for the long-term if the team is depleted further. Edit: assuming he does leave. Edited by The Green Lantern, 3 Jul 2018, 11:36 PM.

doonybhoy hits the nail on the head. If he leaves, it’s Nicholas MKII. |

If the rumours are true though - BR and PL have tried to get him to stay I know there will be many rumours circulating but I’m holding off on slagging Lawwell just for now |

Does that make Jozo Simunovic a legend? Nir Bitton? Stuart Armstrong? Think you're using the word pretty loosely. He could be counted alongside Danny McGrain. If he leaves now I'd rank him somewhere between Mark Wilson and Andy Hinkel on the 'legend' scale. That said, I'm still not 100% convinced he's the one engineering this of his own accord. |

Harsh. Bitton has played many more games for us, and been a winner of infinitely more in the Champions League. edit, just realised that was not just exaggeration but actually pish Edited by arklys, 3 Jul 2018, 11:46 PM.
