If 11m is the correct figure that is to good to turn down, Docherty 600k/Jack 0 /Dorrans 800k/Murphy/Cummings(loanees but 1.6 for the pair if reports are accurate). Do I want to win anything? stupid question. Is it all about money? that's an unbelievable offer imo and must be grabbed (see players above for value to be had) 3rd one fantasy. For a Scottish club to get anywhere near the group stages is getting even more difficult, how many times have we done it even with our box office players? I like the wee man but ffs get real 11m is mental. (if true) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not following. So we sell a 11mill striker and buy less quality but that gets us to the CL. So you think 4 players at 3 mill each will get us to the CL.

We got Morelos for 1.5million and you said he hasn’t developed much since he got here so we got an £11million striker for 1.5 million, there’s good quality out there we could probably replace him for about 2 million if we look in the right places like we did last time which means we’d still have a very large amount of money to spend on other positions in the team.
