Let's hope we don't get too greedy, these big clubs will have no problem waiting till next summer and get to sign him for nothing if required.

Yup that is a good point. Totally different figures but I remember us turning down £750k for Mark Reynolds and we ended up selling him for £100k and a 6pk of wotsits!

robsterwood Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Reports saying Torino interested now in Miller. Hope bidding war can bump up price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago I am starting to get the feeling this is going to drag on and on Celtic will come in with a 4 million bid during the last few days of the window and that will be that. It's all well and dandy holding out for the right fee but it's pretty important we sell Lennon this window come January unless he has turned into prime Messi it's fire sale time or even leaving us on a free in the summer. If these clubs wanted him they would have stumped up the fee easy I am starting to think it's the add on's that might be the stumbling block here.

weeyin Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Clubs just don't "stump up". You see that at every level where they often go through multiple rounds of negotations with club and then player's management. We just don't notice it as much when it's not our player. Even when a bid hasn't been accepted yet, managers and agents will be in discussions with potential suitors so the personal terms will be ready to sign. Also don't forget, that most countries don't have the insanity of a league cup at the start of pre-season, and so conduct business a little bit later. And finally, of course, MIller gets the final say on where he goes, so even if we accept a bid from a club, it doesn't mean they will get him. Given his history of making good career choices so far, I'd be surprised if his next step isn't also ideal for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Udinese, Torino, Como and whoever else can probably outbid Partick Thistle and St Johnstone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted 56 minutes ago Report Share Posted 56 minutes ago My preference for Lennon would be 1. Como 2. Bologna 3. Torino 4. Udinese Given that those are the 4 that are allegedly in for him, Im pretty comfortable that he will get a good move and we will get a decent price. I think Como is the best fit as he would be going to an upcoming team and under the stewardship of Fabregas, he would be learning from one of the best. Also, the views! Whats not to like? Bologna would also seem to be a good fit and they have certainly been good for Ferguson. They have European football to look forward to, so I would guess even if he wasnt a first pick there, he will get enough games thru squad rotation. Also the possibility a bigger club comes in for Ferguson creating space. Torino, not sure how they play but clearly a decent standard to finish mid table and having Adams on board, should help the settling in process. Udinese, Im not so keen on. Moreso due to their links with Watford and how mental they look with consrant churnover of managers and players. It might turn out ok, but Id be concerned he would be loaned out and might disappear. Every chance he may not go to any of the above, but wherever he ends up, I just hope it happens soon and we can all move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
