Lille agree deal for Jonathan David from Gent €30m

Could well be the case. Hard to be sure given the whole team went to shit after the winter break, but Alfie was at his peak with us going into the January window.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all that, but certainly feels like that's when we'd have been in prime selling position - of course the dilemma is that when a player is at the top of their game, none of us want them to leave... just unfortunate that we never saw the slip in form across the board coming.

Agreed, I felt that was the reason he dived at the end of the celtc game. I couldn’t rationalise it any other way than he didn’t expect to be here when play resumed after Jan.

His late arrival back prior to the hearts game just convinced me more. These things are all circumstantial but when viewed with a spot of cynicism then it does make you wonder.

Either way, we just need this not to rattle on. We need to just focus on the league for now.

Maybe his gesture at the end of the scum game was him telling us he's done.
