    I'm still asking whether his Celtic loan was a success or if it was simply "meh, but he got a league trophy"?

    That is quite a vote of confidence in him by Lille, so they certainly think he's a real talent. Great place for him to develop.

    If he's transferring to Lille for 10 million and has a real chance to play...

    Well, that's your answer. Is that "meh" or a "success?"

    There were quite a few really good titles, though. You all did good.

    And PSG hung on for a 50% sell-on until Lille coughed up more up-front. Both clubs believe in him, but he was surplus to the requirements of one of them, which happens in football.

    France is a great place to learn the trade; Lille are a well-backed club that's on-the-up; the coach is highly regarded; they're in the CL group stages next season, etc. I'm exceptionally optimistic on this one.

    He could (and I really hope I'm not jinxing him) be what Julian Green was supposed to be all those years back

    All due respect, but this is the best title hands down.

    I went back through the thread. @TimB4Last’s idea had more reps than @Sylvius’s. Sorry, man. You both had great ideas!

    Sylvius’s had far more quotes with reps as the best title after.
