    £2.5m mooted

    Must mean another lw coming in if not would prefer to give him until jan


    Celtic hope to sign James McClean but will turn their attention to Porto's Christian Atsu if a move for the Sunderland winger proves unsuccessful. (Sunday Express )

    Looks like Mavrias. Still get a feeling, with PDC's every one out mentality, Sess will be gone and Giaccerini in that spot as looks a bit weak on the wing. take 2.5 for JM any day.

    Not sure what happened with him last season but, he is just not good enough now. Far too one dimensional hope he does well at Celtic if he does go and proves me wrong.

    James McLean has not fulfilled his potential and if we can turn a profit then that would be good for all concerned.

    Not me.
    As far as I can see he has exactly the same skills and ability now as he had when first came. ie learnt nothing & no improvement.

    Still possible I suppose under PDC but if it was up to me I`d take the offer.

    Would Sess have played in both friendlies if he wasnt in Di Canio's plans or if his departure was imminent!!? Would he have risked him on that pitch if a sizable transfer fee was on the cards?

    I think the Irish club we bought him from still have that 25% sell on clause.

    Also I would be surprised if Celtic will pay him what he is on at our place (he got a new contract this time last year) so we may have to give him a bit of a pay off

    However, I would still support the sale of him

    I highly doubt it, plus pdc has publicly said how sess has embraced the plans and how pleased he is with his progress

    Disagree

    Di Canio has made it clear in interviews that Giaccherini will be used as a winger.

    Mavrias will not come to start, he's only something like 19? On the right we've got Johnson as starter with DMK (young) as competition/back-up and on the left Giaccherini will start with Mavrias (young) as competition/back-up

    Sess may yet leave (I don't think he will personally) but if he does Giaccherini won't be the one to take his spot

    Why would a bid be unsuccessful? He'd probably kill to play for the hoops.

    Might be a bit off here, thought he was on 3k when he came and then put up to 12k. Not out of Celtic range. Just sold 17m worth. Hooper and Wanyama.

    My season just got a million times better if we can ship this thick plank on. He is crap and nowhere near a premier league footballer. SPL is about his stamp or at best Championship and lets see how long he survives with his infamous tweets about his homeland up in Glasgow?

    Aye maybe your right. Very early days but didn't look an out and out winger to me. Got to put the ball on his foot unlike ManC game. Kind of liked his sensible ball play and lay off's.Looks a bit of a playmaker. like I said doesn't look like PDC wants many from last season and obviously he has to play some until they go. (Shop window and all that)
