Transfer Rumour Everton poised to make £25m bid for Celtic full-back Kieran Tierney

[BlueToff]

Baines strikes me as a guy who will duty bound to see out the final year of his contract. Good man to have in the squad too with a young player coming in to replace him. I'd like to see LB stay because he's more than capable of stepping in if needed.

Yes, and it's sensible.

Baines and Tierney would be a superb rotation heading into the season. Robinson out on loan again.

If it does happen, it'll be a fantastic signing.

145k a week on someone completely unproven tells me that we’ve learnt nothing. Well in Marcel Walsh.

No.

£145k by year five.

That's the gist.

Let's see. It could be bullocks tbf.

Source silent and giving me none.

...somebody else would be prepared to pay it, especially considering the reasonable transfer fee. It’s only a poor deal if the lad turns out to be poor. If that is the case you can then blame Brands.

Well, Gylfi is on £120k I believe. He's now our top earner (it would have been Ross had he signed his deal) now Rooney has left.

At the moment he is mate, but over the course of 5 years before he hit the upper level of that, I doubt we will still have Gylfli as our highest earner.

..that’s a plus!! They don’t let them have phones in jail.

145k a week by year 5

..you have to wonder if Baines is prepared to be back up. I know he’s on big bucks, but if Tierney happens I can see Baines moving in this window for first team football and a 3 year contract elsewhere.

I would hope he would. Excellent back up to have. He did turn down Man U. Maybe Everton is a good fit for him and he'd be happy to see out his career here.
He doesn't have an England slot to chase either.

145k for a lad from the Tractor league.

Ok lads.

Do you realise the US election was won because an account had artificially inflated follower accounts? - There is zero metric available to ascertain the legitimacy of any real/fake accounts. I helped work on one of the biggest global platforms which track(ed) fake/bot accounts and can categorically and statistically say its impossible to confirm.

Even so I still think it’s a lot of money to pay that for someone from the Scottish league.

He's from Celtic. Celtic are a massive club and it's not their fault they're in a crap league.

145/wk by year 5 seems a lot, knock it down to 125/wk and we'll call it a deal. Particularly if there isn't much of a signing bonus

There's no way on earth he'll be on 145k a week. Absolutely none.

Ok - these are the ten most followed teams on twitter. In order:

Man Utd
Arsenal
Chelsea
Liverpool
Man City
Spurs
Everton
West Ham
Newcastle
Villa

Now are you telling me that is not a relatively accurate barometer of popularity/support? Because that list certainly looks fairly accurate to me.
