Gooner Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 We've been crying out for a wide player who can beat a player, really quick and has end product. Pepe is coming off a fantastic season for Lille, it's a lot of money but good to see us sending a serious message. CB is definitely needed and that was before the situation that has aroused with Koschelny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Murtz Posted July 27, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 27, 2019 Is a replacement for Ramsey not needed? He looked pretty key in the last 6 months.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Oh yeah, not saying you (and 3 or 4 teams) donāt need a winger, but itās like looking at a dilapidated house and starting work on the garden when the bedrooms need fixing first.Ā The fee for Pepe is what it is. Sure itās slightly over because of instalments, but itās not the end of the world is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've signed Ceballos on loan so that gives us extra quality in the center of midfield, only time will tell of he can do a good job for us to help compensate the loss of Ramsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time will tell but if this goes through, three signings in past few days after only one beforehand and all the "we barely have any money stuff" is positive news. No not the end of the world, I think it's a great signing, we still need more though but we have time left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 27, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 27, 2019 Plus who knows- if Ceballos does a good job there and the fans take to him, we might be able to persuade him to join permanently. I know he has his sights set on a future at Real but if they wanted him that much they wouldn't send him out on loan. He isn't 'shiny' enough for them. Plus, their fans are even bigger cunts than ours and shouldn't be allowed to have nice things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 That last sentence is really not true. No idea why heās been loaned out, asĀ I can see this season being an absolute nightmare for them again. I love Zidane, but I bet heās a nasty bastard if you cross him and/or he doesnāt like you.

Mad isn't it? In addition to this Zidane isn't much of a fan of Isco either is he? But then again it's probably more Perez than him when it comes to Ceballos. He's not a Galactico.

I get heās going to improve playing regular football, but surely heād have played 20-30 games at Madrid this year. I just donāt get it, but then again weāre not privy to anything.Ā Iām slightly annoyed he went to you, but not as bitter as some people Iāve seen. Tell you what, canāt fucking wait to play you lot next month. What a tasty game so early on. I might even have to venture out to that shithole for that one.

Who also think that Morelos is worth Ā£20m despite a questionable record in big games and an appalling disciplinary record. I can understand you're desperate for Celtic not to bring in yet another big cash windfall for a player but let's try and be a wee bit more objective eh?Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thatās a 15 million striker in English money easy. Donāt want him sold tho, want best players at my club.Ā Dont care what Celtic do money wise, they are already much more cash rich than us as they should be after so long unchallenged.Ā Iām more than happy with what Rangers are doing without caring about what money Celtic get, maybe I just donāt think heās that good, and seems to be really prone to injury? Not everything is done with bias and seethe, my objectivity is perfectly fine.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MungoChutney Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Left out of the Colombia squad for a major tournament due to discipline though and you can't deny he's performed poorly in more than the odd big game. I reckon Ā£15m for Morelos is about the top line, certainly not worth the same as Demebele but the market can dictate that. Tierney has had one significant injury that's now been rectified and is being rehabbed. I think pulling out a random figure on how many games he's played might have been what made me question your objectivity. Fair enough if I'm wrong.

StrongStyle Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Morelos - Ā£15m. I will crack the jokes. He has never scored against Celtic and he's a liability in terms of discipline. Granted, he will get you goals against the smaller teams and someone will probably take the risk on him at cut price. Rangers have cynically tried to flog him for the better part of a year now with glossy YouTube videos about him and reporting nonsenseĀ bids (Jelavic, anyone?) I'm no great lover of Celtic but to imply that Morelos is even close in terms of value to someone like Moussa Dembele is ludicrous. He proved it in the Champions League and by dismantling Rangers on his own at times. Until Morelos can skelp Celtic single handedly or keep the lid on his discipline, there will always be a question mark against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
