ErsatzThistle Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Here are seven Scottish players aged between nineteen and twenty five. Some have already proven their quality (Armstong and Tierney) others have shown good potential (Lindsay and Cadden). Stuart Armstrong - Celtic Kieran Tierney - Celtic Barrie McKay - Rangers Jamie Walker - Hearts Chris Cadden - Motherwell Liam Lindsay - Partick Thistle John McGinn - Hibernian What price tag would you put on each of them ? Taking into account of course, the current ridiculous sums of money that some clubs throw about. Tierney would be the highest in my opinion, £6,000,000 at least. Armstrong next at about £3,500,000. As it stands, how would you price them ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Bit of a cop-out that you've not done it yourself.... I've based it on what i think each player is worth, rather than what they'd be sold for: Stuart Armstrong - Celtic - £3 MillionKieran Tierney - Celtic - £6.5 Million Barrie McKay - Rangers - £600k Jamie Walker - Hearts - £1 millionChris Cadden - Motherwell - Not seen him enough to comment Liam Lindsay - Partick Thistle - £1.25 million John McGinn - Hibernian - £800k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reevesy Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 6m for Tierney, are you only wanting him to do an after dinner speech?

iainmac1 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Would Celtic currently sell Tierney for £12 million. I think they would maybe turn that down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only One Stop Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Time left on contract a huge factor. Anyone with less than 12 months and you looking at peanuts for all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black'n'tan Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Armstrong is probably going to go south for a double digit number assuming Celtic keep him under contract to allow the big sale. Assumes he continues to improve and it's one of the big guns looking for that piece in their jigsaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's available for nothing in the summer isn't he ? Can Hearts claim a small "development fee" at all ?

macy37 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Do people think Armstrong is a target of a club willing to pay a premium fee? He's not that great, certainly no Tierney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing Paterson has got in his favour is that he a big strong physical guy and can play as well. Not convincd that the other guys have got the athleticism and strength for any of the top leagues.

He's not that great, certainly no Tierney. What's a premium fee to you? He's still young, already a good player and with room for improvement, playing in Europe and for the national team and playing for a club who currently don't have to sell their best players. None of that suggest he's go for anything less than a good fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strachan will go with his tried, tested and failed names against England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASTA Mick Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I think that what may help increase the fees of the Celtic players is the success of players like Forster, VVD and Wanyama in the Premier League, as well as the likes of Ki and Ledley who have done alright. Clubs can buy from Celtic with a bit more confidence that good players can make the step up in standard. There aren't many examples of players from other Scottish Prem players doing the same. Even the excellent Fraser took a few years, and a loan season at Ipswich, before he started getting 1st team football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
