Has he done that yet? I know he scored a few in the CL but still.

Ross McCormack scored against inter milan

Tony Watt scored against Barcelona

The list goes on.

Again thing is he isn't even Celtic's best attacking player, Sinclair is miles ahead of him at the minute.

 
Don't be so dismissive of this kid...he is a wonderful talent and a real gem...in would take him in a heartbeat...on another matter, looks like Biabianby from Inter has turned down our loan offer...

 
Short answer, I dont want him at all.

Abraham is younger and as talented and in Dembeles 40 odd Championship games last year he got 15 goals, Abraham already has 15 goals for a terrible Bristol side.

Makes no sense that the club would piss away 40m on Dembele, its madness.

Fully agree regarding Abraham. He is banging in goals in a very poor championship side. I am more impressed by the season he is having than Dembele.

Players like Batman and Abraham must be thinking what's the point.

 
when we have abraham it doesn't really make sense, especially considering the championship is on par with the scottish league give or take. might be being harsh there, but really don't think the scottish league is that great and the top two would probably be mid table in premier league at best. only way i could see this working out is if conte plans to play dembele in a different forward position. i don't know much about the lad though, so he could end up quality.

He's flying to London for a knee scan..apparently, doubt we're signing him.

It's worse than that. Scottish football is absolutely brutal...trust me

 
So is it common for Glasgow based athaletes to come to London for a scan? No MRI machines north of the wall ?

He's going to a specialist, most players from Celtic and Rangers head down south due to the best ones being here.

Glasgow is actually very good for orthopaedics but yes sometimes players will go to a specialist clinic in London 

 
There was information that we track this guy for long time. Though we didn`t make a move and Celtic took him for free from Fulham. Why the board didn`t act quicker and didn`t take it before he go to Celtic, and now they want 40mln? We could have get him and then loan him somewhere.

Although i think Moussa Dembele is a great young lad, that have bright future. But the price is heavy, esp. when you know they took him for free. It`s a miss from our board, another mistake from them, and if we count there are a lots over the years.

And for the comparison with Traore, for sure Dembele is more gifted of them. Have great technique, dribble, pace and shooting.

And so far Traore has not been impressive in A**x.

I'll be so disappointed if we waste all that money on him. We already spunked £33m on a striker who clearly isn't good enough yet, don't do it again.

How can you say clearly isn't good enough when he hasn't played. You can't judge a player from 30 seconds at the end of a match. Whether Conte  thinks Batman is good enough is another thing because he sees him in training everyday.

 
Who sends a player on his jack for a medical appointment without a club medical team escort?

Just saying...

You've just listed all the attributed that Traore is also great at...

Traore may not have killed the Eredivisie but he's proved himself there before with Vitesse and scored goals at a much higher level for Chelsea. 

People saying 'Dembele has more potential' are basing this purely on their own opinion with absolutely zero fact. 

The only facts we do have are we have plenty of young attacking talent already on our books. If we want to start spending big money buy someone who is already close to the finished article or has proved themselves at a decent level, not the bloody poverty Scottish league.
