Linked with a 40m move to Chelsea. That would one sting a bit.

What do they want him for? They have about 300 players in their squad.

Abramovich must be bored with being a billionaire, trying to burn it away as quickly as possible.

It seems to be the way with young players

We  did the same with Chris Smalling, snapping him up for  next to nothing from a lower league side, then selling him for 10 million quid to Man Utd.

No way will anyone pay 40 million quid for Dembele. He has proved himself a reasonable player in Scottish Prem, but there is a gulf in class between scoring against Inverness and trying to score against Man City or Arsenal.

Don't forget the 'development fee' we received. Just imagine if we had kept hold of him

Not true natural scorers do it anywhere.

We did not sell him at all. He chose not to sign a new contract with us.

Would that be the very same board that caused the snide martin debacle

No disrespect to our 2nd string striker (MS), but Celtic must be stupid!!! They could have unloaded Dembele signed MS for 1m and still won their league and made a substantial profit, after all they don't have any competition up there!!

Let's be fair he isn't worth that.

I have always been a massive fan of Dembele and whilst Chelsea are renowned for not developing youngsters and literally there loanees are ridiculous. However i think Conte is a good manager, and if he were to spend the cash quoted he would definitely be part of there plans next season.

The biggest thing that pisses me off is how much we got for him!!! Arghh!! Also i still hate chelsea!

Complicit with everything that has gone wrong at Fulham from relegation onwards.  I am just so pleased we now have Jokanovic trying his best to instill a bit of pride.

unfair that last bit what could we have done about it he'd made his mind up not to sign a new contract with us along with advice and help from his agent.

I never fail to understand what part of this is so difficult for people to grasp.

He scored against Barca this season.

Mmm, people also understand timing, like a) realising they can get some money for him before he falls by the wayside or b) offering him a new contract well before it was due.  Please don't be so dismissive.
