Convinced there’s a £10m release clause since he signed his new deal. Never heard anything like it. Morelos living in their minds rent free. Can not cope that he will be the most expensive transfer out of Scottish football. Next time I wouldn't bother. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we're setting ourselves up for disappointment if we think it'll be a £20 million fee, or even half that, without him demonstrating a few things to potential suitors. Chiefly, playing well over a decent number of games against quality opposition, and demonstrating that he has the brains to go with his obvious skill & power. More encouraging is that we seem to be on the right track. Buying rough diamonds & polishing them up has to be our approach - the days of off-the-peg quality will not be back for a few seasons at least. When eventually we do part with him (I'd accept £8m right now, hopefully more in a year), we must ensure that his replacement(s) are already scouted & ready to sign. judge dread Steelydan1690 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I would not term him an international player after earning only 1 cap in a friendly. Rightly or wrongly those down south will simply view him as scoring goals in an easy league. Dembele went for what he went for probably as a result of champions league goals, goals against us but also playing regularly in the French set up as well as having developed there. If Morelos goes in the summer I don’t see it being over 10m. Not worth selling for 10m we will just waste that 3 shite players Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league they play in is just another factor in the grand scheme of things, people talking like it's the only factor is stupid in the same way a goal against the beggars instantly increases his value by 5 million and other such nonsense spouted in this thread.
