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

[ProZ]

Loving the reactions of some Celtic fans.

"Who would want to move to Everton?"

Anyone who wants to double their wages and test themselves in a league that isn't 99% dross.

We should be the club that promises young talent a chance to to thrive with first team football which they won’t get from the teams above us, that way they get to develop with us and we get a fat fee when they bin us off after proving themselves in the prem.

Wanyama is awful

Lies.

Lies.

A very limited cumbersome player who is awful on the ball and decent off it, who can’t get in spurs starting 11 ahead of Dier who I think is equally awful..

Mate, don't go there. The faux Irish will go after you and call you racist for saying stuff like that.

As will the real Irish

They're playing as we speak so it's probably safe to assume there will be questions about it.

Is he in the squad?

Aye, started

 

[Chimpy Glassman]

He's 21... Those slating him should really take into consideration his age.

Have you met the Tom Davies thread?

Well at only 5 foot 8 or 9 he ain't going to be the commanding CB we need is he

He broke through the Celtic youth teams as a winger mate. Converted to left-back once he got on the brink of the first-team.

Plays right-back for Scotland too.

Versatile full-back, not a centre-half.

He's 5 10 but he's not a centre back any way. Really does have the potential to be a great full back - possible mix of best attributes of Leighton and Seamus. Baines is 5 8 and much as i love him I've always had an irrational fear about crosses to the back post when the opposition are attacking down our right if he is isolated against a player good in the air

Im not getting on board with people making out he’s some wonderkid and one of the best in the world for his age. End of the day we’d be paying probably close to £30m from a bloke who’s only played for a crap team in a joke of a league.

That’s not me saying I don’t want him however, I just have my reservations.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

I wouldn't blame him for coming or staying...either outcome has its merits, for him.

Celtic fan here. Tierney is by far the best scottish talent since Paul Mcstay. I know a lot of English fans think Scottish football is terrible and to be fair it's not the best but it's nowhere near as bad as it's made out to be. Tierney himself is extremely mature for his age on and off the field. Boy doesnt even drink. He's deceptively fast and has staminia levels similar to kante not even joking. He's strong for his size and brilliant at doing the old fashioned type of tackles where he wins the ball fairly and then goes through the player on the follow through. He bombs up that wing for 90 minutes. He can hit some shot/crosses similar to the way baines would for you's. Personally though I think the move is a lot of pish as I can't see him leaving us after just signing a 6 year deal and defo not for £25mil. He's our future captain. However if he does leave and it is to Everton you's would be signing someone whose going to instantly be your best left back and finally get credit for being one of the best in europe, he will make you double or treble your money back easy and no disrespect will outgrow Everton fast. ( don't mean that as a dig by the way )

Sorry for the long post lads. Any questions about him just ask

Yes but but one outcome has an extra 40,000 merits per week!
