I am not sure I remember Michael Higdon getting the opposition fans so hot and bothered in the way Morelos does.

Valuing your star player at 20m, more than the 19.5 Dembele went for is desperation

Gerrard will play Freddo against the Dons, no doubt about it, he'd be slaughtered otherwise.

Wee Freedo is a nusiance to be fair, and he is worth around £10M to an EPL team.

By the way, have you noticed the difference between a single packet of crisps and a packet from a multipack? It's criminal the lack or crisps in a multipack.

How many goals did Griffiths score in his first season at Celtic..?

posted on 5/3/19

Griffiths is the Tim Boyd with less goals and even dafter but 10x as ugly.

posted on 5/3/19

Celtic are top of the league- 8 points clear.

Hailhail 🍀👍

----------------------------------------------

Choosing to gauge your valuations of one of yours players against that of an ex-player of your rivals is utterly shambolic and reeking of desperation.

he should have just said 20 million and been done with it... but no he had to pander to you guys and compare against Moussa, knowing that it fookin annoys you that we got 20 million for him

also considering you guys coined the catchphrase 'dembele dollars' just adds the icing to the cake..

pure comedy

Not annoyed at all. Agreed with time on here at the time you may well get more for him than that. Albeit his second season wasn't as good so probably fair.

Sorry to disappoint

Why would we be annoyed that you got a lot less for Dembele than you should have done?

I think Robertson referenced Dembele because he has been the bench mark over the past couple of seasons. And he has shown that a striker from our league could move on for that sort of cash. So in his view a similar fee for Morelos is realistic.

I don't necessarily agree with him on the valuation.

I would say £12-15m up front plus £3-5m add-ons for Morelos would be a fabulous deal for someone we got for £1m.

However if he plays in and scored a few goals for Colombia in the Copa America this summer then you never know.....

Sorry...meant £10-12m up front plus add ons.

He’s far better than any player we’ve had recently and easily one of the best players in Scotland, don’t need to look at stats to see that. We now seem in a better position to hold out for good money as well more to the point.

Will be surprised if he goes for less than 12m

posted on 5/3/19

I would say a total package including add-ons of around £15m would be a great deal.

Anything more than that would be sensational really.

i know you said didnt care for stats but just to put it out there... he has scored or got an assist in almost every game as far as stats go, think its 39 goals & assists in 40 appearances.

That is phenomenal !

Maybe Robertson meant he’s valued the same as Karamoko?! Probably more accurate.

I'm sure i read that he's similar to James Forrest, slightly ahead of Forrest.

Think Forrest has been involved in something like 34 goals in 42 games.

Morelos has been phenomenal this season for sure. His all round game has gone up a couple of levels.

In terms of a fee he is maybe held back a bit by his disciplinary record, the fact he is just starting out on his international career, the lack of CL experience plus the fact he is playing in Scotland.

I can see the parallels with Dembele but he did score a couple of high profile CL goals and was on a pretty hot streak for France U21s which would have boosted his fee.

But then he forced his departure and left in a strop so maybe that reduced it

‘I think Robertson referenced Dembele because he has been the bench mark over the past couple of seasons. And he has shown that a striker from our league could move on for that sort of cash. So in his view a similar fee for Morelos is realistic.’

That’s probably part of the problem for some. Liam Boyce was playing in the same league, and I think was the top scorer when he left for around £250k. It’s everything else that goes along with it, including the club he plays for.

It’s like the difference between buying a 3 bed semi in a really nice part of Bearsden and a 3 bed semi in a poor part of Easterhouse (not to disparage Easterhouse).

Robertson was naive to reference Dembele, or to even mention a figure if that’s what he did.
