    If all goes to plan and we sell Ki for the reported 6 million and get into the champions league i would love to sign the both of them get bangura out on loan and dump murphy get in a target man type aswell and a big centre half and henriksen as well make us much stronger for the champions leauge and the SPL

    As regards Russell, I'm conflicted. I think he's a fantastic prospect and would thrive at Celtic. However, I wouldn't want to see him stifle the development of somebody like Tony Watt if deployed as a striker. So the alternative being we use him as an attacking midfielder/winger as Utd have been doing of late? But in place of whom? Sammy???

    GMS on the other hand seems like a more natural fit. Ibrahim doesn't look to be appearing any time soon and we could use a 'locksmith' imo.

    Ideally, I'd like us to say * it and buy both but hey ho.

    Time to bring in Johnny Russell, me thinks. He wouldn't cost too much, is a great wee player with even greater potential and he is a tim:icon_mrgreen:

    Hooper, Stokes, Watt, Russell - Really good options.

    WE HAVE no chance of getting them, CHIC is trying his best to get interest from the EPL, to put them out of OUR PRICE range he want us to get it tough, in any deals that we make, he wants us to pay over the odds, the wee * bag he never shut up about them all day.

    dont let russell become another fletcher .Think russell would cost 1.5 max and with him hooper and watt, if we could sell bangura for a tenner it would make space for a target man

    Russell will go for over 2 million when he leaves imo I would offer 2.5 milllion for him or 5 million for both. But I'm starting to change my mind on these signings purely because of watts performance today it would be sad to see his development stall which could happen if we bring Russell in

    GMS is entering the last year of his deal and wouldn't fetch much more than that. Utd are desperate for money too - I'd expect a combined bid of £2.25M - £2.5M would secure the services of both.

    Didn't GMS sign a new deal? Sure I heard he is signed up until 2015, as is Russel. Then I can't be 100%.
