How do Rangers handle the Calvin Bassey situation with a bidding war about to break out for the defender?
DAVID McCARTHY: If Ajax or Brighton are willing to spend £25m, they have to take it. Bassey will be a miss, but van Bronckhorst can make serious moves in the market with that kind of money and perhaps have enough left over to keep Morelos and/or Kent on extended deals.
GORDON PARKS: It's a case of sit and wait for Rangers to allow the bidding war to ramp up and this one could go through the roof. It appears Bassey is a genuine big buck asset. Patience is the key as his sale doesn't need to be rushed.
MICHAEL GANNON: It’s going to be tough to keep him at Ibrox so it will be about making sure they bank as much dosh as possible. Anything north of £20m would be superb business.
Who is the main man for Celtic up front if all the strikers are fit?
DAVID: Kyogo is sensational with his pace and movement; Giakoumakis' ability to bring others into the game and his finishing is superb, so it will be horses for courses but I expect to see them both starting at times as well.
GORDON: Kyogo is a class apart from all the other Celtic strikers and if he can stay fit then he'll be the standout performer in the Premiership this season with Jota proving a potent sidekick.
MICHAEL: It will depend on the opponent. They are so different they will provide options for Ange Postecoglou but it could end up a job share with the two. It’s a tricky one, but that’s why managers get paid the big bucks.
The Premiership season is two weeks away, who needs to get busy in the transfer market in the coming fortnight?
DAVID: If Rangers lose Morelos, Kent or Bassey, they'll have to go into the market. Celtic look in decent shape but Hibs are the club that looks as if they need strengthening in several areas.
GORDON: There's been a lot of decent business done across the Premiership but it's all been a bit too quiet at Motherwell and maybe a few new additions wouldn't go amiss.
MICHAEL: Kilmarnock will need to get a shift on. They look short and they’ve got a fairly brutal start to the Premiership campaign. They don’t want to be left playing catch up.
How is the St Andrews Old Course holding up as a venue for a modern major championship?
DAVID: Brilliantly. Watching the best in the game trying to work it out in the first two days of The Open has been fantastic and although there are plenty under par, it hasn't been torn apart.
GORDON: There's nowhere better suited to mark the 150th Open. It's a superb setting and set-up, golf is all about the challenge and the traditions and St Andrews has it all.
MICHAEL: Surprisingly well for a 500 year old track. Some old fuddy duddies don’t like seeing birdies for some reason, but it makes great viewing for the rest of us.
