The Summer Transfer Window Thread

No I'm expert by any stretch but 7 big ones for a striker with those stats seems a bit excessive, am I wrong?

It is not 7 million. It would only reach that should we get promoted, he have X amount of goals and X amount of appearances for us and Ireland etc.

It is apparently around 3 million up front according to some fairly reliable people.

It's half that with the other half depending on performance etc apparently.
If he scores the goals to trigger the add ons then he's worth it.

Celtic have agreed terms with Dolberg from Anderlecht Brenda was just giving the board a nudge

They've signed Michel-Ange Balikwisha, a striker/winger from Royal Antwerp too

Celtic complete signing of Michel-Ange Balikwisha from Royal Antwerp

The Belgian winger joins the Hoops just a couple of days after they missed out on the Champions League.

Think angry villagers at Frankenstein's castle

Yes and I think burning torches AND pitchforks. A burning pitchfork would be too hot to handle

Ollie Cooper to Plymouth on loan?

 

[Longlostjack]

I thought I saw Celtic had signed a striker earlier today? Obviously not.
Think it will still happen, just not right away.

Yes he is not fantastic but worth putting here

Couple of reporters claiming we are still interested in Moussa Sylla at Schalke.
Looks like Schalke want a sale but Leicester and other teams also mentioned along with Schalke wanting 7M Euros.

If this is anything to go by he looks like a bit of what we've been missing with holding up the ball and linking play. He seems quite strong..

So basically based on these highlights he does everything Cullen and VP rarely do. Quick, strong, running onto the ball with through pass and actually scores. I'm happy

 

[Swans Jack]

As I mentioned to someone else. We are getting a speedy mobile 6ft3 versus an old school VIP style carthorse.

I'd rather be driving a low end sports car than a lorry.

I'm happy with this signing and also still like VIP

Cullen moaned last week when a perfect pass was played to him and he didn't bother going for it. Will be good to have a striker in Idah who gets on the end of a through ball. Something we have been missing.

 

[Menston4128]

Doubt he will be seen tomorrow. He doesnt even know his surroundings yet let alone our tactics/style of play and what's expected of him in his position

I hope he knows that his position requires him to score goals

When you have no pace like Cullen you don't make those runs unfortunately
