Season long loan with £1.4 mil option. Dembele that is. Where you read / hear that Awin? Sounds a steal if so

Danger with that, without an option to buy we are putting him in the shop window. I’d imagine they’d have covered themselves with some sort of option, I guess as he’s under 24 there will be a compo package maybe? Really excited by both of these. Think there will be more to come too. Left back definitely but whatever happens it’s a very good window and kudos to the club. Imagine the two new guys are a significant outlay so sensible to cover with a loan first instead of spending big and finding out the hard way Not my reading. The Dembele signing said words to the effect of "view to a permanent" deal, unless they are not disclosing something this is just a normal loan.

Sky saying both are loan signings folks Dembele is initially a loan.

Boys a player. Like him a lot. I'm hoping we've got his permanent signing pre-agreed and watertight.

Just needs to add some goals from him now - and for players around him to convert more of his chances. To have 30 shots in a match and only score one goal is a poor team effort conversion wise

Boy wonder at Celtic now looking like a proper player for us. Once he and the rest of these signings ssttle we will have a proper team. Get a pacey forward in if Dykes is off and Dembele can thread those passes through. Love how much variety he has to his game

Like how he has hit the ground running.

At the same time, big money comes in for Chair we'll have to take it.

Big Chair fan but if that is true we don’t have much choice but to cash in sadly as agree the pair playing together is a mouth watering prospect

Just in to echo the last several comments. We found us one for sure! We have been lacking creativity for a long time now, outside of Chair, except this guy likes to pass! Looks like he could care less about stats and more about the end result. Winning.
But yes, maybe this makes the front office think better of dealing Chair. Throw Saito in there and we have a midfield trio that is very scary.

Just echoing all your comments I know but the boy looks class. Got me off my seat every time he got the ball today. Brilliant signing.

Willock or Dembele, I know which one I prefer and his surname doesn’t begin with W.

Willock or Dembele, I know which one I prefer and his surname doesn’t begin with W. Apparently in his last 20 games Dunne has scored/assisted slightly more than Willock did in his last 20. As you say Dembele far more exciting than the Willock of 2024, just hope we can hold on to him

Dembele has to be in the side as an out and out number 10 as he has the touch, vision and weight of pass to really help out strikers. Marti is really doing an unbelievable job and look at the difference 12 months makes. Our most skilful and creative player. He's becoming vital to us, especially now he's been moved to his most effective position in the 10 role. Look how quickly the game changed when that happened, with two goals in four minutes.

I'm still slightly amazed that we got him. I mean, how comes no one else was in for him? How did we pull that one off? Whatever the reason, fantastic work from Marti and the board.

My Cov mate who's watched the last couple of games with me said the same. How the hell weren't there any bigger clubs in for him? What's the catch?

Them two, either side of Madsen, just behind Frey. I like that. I like that a lot. i'd play madsen in midfield personally as we need a ball player there. certainly needs some coaching on the defensive side of things. We need to buy Dembele before someone else does Hes a real deal but on loan

We need to buy Dembele before someone else does Hes a real deal but on loan it's a loan with a view to buy which pretty much means an obligation/option to buy. just some clever FFP stuff we've done. he's as good as ours tbh.
