    I think he will be given the goal same as they took the Bayo ones off, was never an OG ball was going in.

    Anyway that was one of the first games i've ever seen him look like he wanted to score goals. Usually he is quite relaxed and passive, will attempt back heels, skill, try to beat men and roam around but never seems ruthless or desperate for goals. Yesterday he looked like he meant business every time he touched the ball, was more direct and trying to make space and getting shots away, he should play like that more often.

    THE fans all want to be him. Huge clubs want to buy him.

    But the more Boli Bolingoli sees Odsonne Edouard play, he only wants to KEEP him.

    The Belgian left-back’s cousin is £90million Romelu Lukaku — and Boli’s tipped Celtic’s idol to become every bit as big.

    After Edouard scored again in a 6-0 whipping of Ross County, Bolingoli said: “For sure he can go to the level of Romelu — Odsonne is still young and still progressing but in time he can become a big striker in the football world.

    You see how good he is every day, whether he’s playing for Celtic or France. He shows his quality every time.

    “The manager says he will not be leaving. I hope this is the case because he’s a good friend as well as a team-mate.

    Let’s hope he can stay as he is a very important player.”

    Parkhead rang to its new theme song of I Wanna Be Edouard — to the tune of the Stone Roses’ I Wanna Be Adored — as he scored before going off to a standing ovation.

    Now the faithful will pray he finds his shooting boots again against Lazio on Thursday night.

    Involved in absolutely everything..

    His link up play is off the scale and just keeps improving. Get it in to him quick and with good movement and player's close to him.....and it's frightening what he can create..

    Thought he looked a bit jaded lastnight, plays nearly every game and playing alot with the french u21s, could do with a little rest after we hopefully beat aberdeen.

    Wasn’t as sharp as he usually is but still caused them all sorts of problems and held up the ball well linking the play when needed. That first touch control from Forsters kick was just ridiculous!

    Wasn’t at his best, but can forgive him for that as he’s been phenomenal this season. Although he doesn’t have a amazing goal record he’s involved so much in our attack.

    Aye he wasn't completely at it. But still got an assist and almost another with one attempt of his own blocked well at the start of the match too

    Guy brings so much to our attack every game you can forgive him.

    He’s got a wee bit to go before he eclipses Big Jan but he’s well on the way.

    I'd rest him vs. Aberdeen. A forced rest for Christie ended up with him ruining Lazio, perhaps letting Ed recharge could have similar positive effects a bit later.

    I genuinely wouldn't swap him for any other striker I've seen at the club other than Larsson. No, not even Sutton or Dembele.

    French Eddy, the Huns said he was * until he scored the 10 man winner, now they talk about the fat arsed bovine (buffalo or summit) in the same breath, here's my nuts Huns
