From our loan signings (Ramsay (past it) and Diallo (too young) To giving Tav a 4year contract extension at 31 (despite all the evidence that full backs significantly decline at his age.) Keeping on Davis, McGregor, Arfield Spending 2 million on Colak at 28 etc Age adjusted Tillmans fee is worth it. Before you factor in how rapidly players improve at his position between the ages of 20-23. His physicality, fitness, engine, tactical awareness will all get better You think 2m for Colak is excessive?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they’re the same in price per years. But imo Tillman will end up being a better player and has some chance of being sold for a decent profit.

Camshy 812 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 He has already scored more than Aribo had in his first full season and tbh thats with us playing less fluent football than previous seasons. I think the lad is a right good player and once we have more creativity throughout the side I cam only see him getting better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is we sign Tillman for £5m and Colak for £2m and they both stay for 4 years, they still cost us £5m and £2m. Your Math seems to assume Tillman will sign a 13 year contract and stay for the full period. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tillman would be 24 and still have 8-9 years left. And so if he was still under contract with us we could sell him for eg 3 million. But yes you would need to make sure you keep extending Tillman’s deal if you wanted to then sell him on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Hadji Spit RFC 733 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 No doubting he has talent but he’s certainly not the complete package. If he could improve his work rate and speed (not easy) he would be far more valuable. £3-4m at most Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Ranger 3,195 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 For me the Dundee utd game sums his time up with us so far. He was basically poor in large parts of the match but then he came up with a moment of magic that had an impact on the game. He’s only 20 and I reckon around the 5 million mark would be fair price for him at this stage of his career. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks lazy/ lethargic as fuck at times but has the skill, and gets himself into goalscoring positions. Need players with stamina and skill roundabout him though, and for a young guy he has to improve his fitness also. I said 2.5 mill, but 3 or 4 max at a push.

There is no doubt he has ability but the reason we have him on loan is probably due to Bayern realising he fails to contribute much of the time. On Sunday he looked drained when he went off despite the fact he had actually done very little work on the park. Obviously he did well scoring the second goal but his work-rate is abysmal in most games especially when he loses the ball. For a player of his age he should have more energy and drive.

Things like his influence on games will only grow as he plays more games. I think he’s a no brainer of a signing.

SIRB_72 4,085 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 If that is the agreed fee then I don't think 6 million is completely out of the question for him based on what he is contributing, his age, his potential and how good, or bad, we have actually been this season. The standard bearers for that kind of money up here at the moment is Kent and jota. He has more goals and assists than Kent does domestically and is brand new to the team and much younger. He's only 2/3 goals/assists off jota who is playing in a better team at the moment, already a regular fixture after being there a year and 3 years older.

He's basically an expensive project player when we need the finished article. In games where he can't be bothered we need to have signed someone else to come off the bench. scottyscott1963, HG5 and falkirkNS 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fans will be in for a big shock if we don't grab Tilman. People seem to want an all action, goal scoring, ball winning, assist providing, young, but experienced centre midfielder who is affordable but will still be able to be sold on for massive money…on our budget. I admire people wanting the best for us, it’s what everybody should strive for, and no doubt some older posters especially will reel off a load of names from the past who maybe did fit all of that criteria, but the game has changed massively now. Finding a player like a Barry Ferguson who isn’t already at, or is already being eyed up by a top club, is very rare these days and even if you do the chances are they are already well beyond us financially too. You’ll no doubt have people going “aye but celtic manage it” because they did well to get somebody like Hatate, but they won’t mention the 4 million punt at left back who can’t break into their team ahead of Greg Taylor.
