    He's been a sub plenty and never gets on? That must be a wee bit nippy, surely when your struggling to break down dundees defence tonight he could have created a chance or 2 or won a free kick or 2. Strange considering how talented he is and seemenly not cheap bringing him here.

    There's not enough evidence to draw that conclusion yet but if that is true then it's a bizarre signing considering the physicality of the league and that pretty much every game is against a packed defence.

    He’s here for the entire next season. He will get his shot and he’ll be fine.

    Thing is, Rodgers himself said , in his pre match interview for that game,that was the pretty much the reason he was brought here.

    Cant remember what he said exactly but he was asked specifically about his thinking in musonda starting and his answer was along the lines of being a player who can break down tight, well organized defences.

    Personally, I think he's all hype and no trousers and wouldn't be surprised if the loan was terminated in the summer.

    If he actually dribbled at players and used his then he definitely could but he’s looked scared whenever he has played except against Zenit which was an open game.

    Bit harsh on him saying all hype no trousers, he’s definitely got the quality but I think he was just expecting to walk into the team and score for fun. Then he found out quickly that aint the case and he needs to now put in the work.

    I think he will come good but I think he’ll be more suited to Europe for us.

    He probably does have great technique but freestylers, futsal players and beach football players also have great technique but just not enough of the full package to make it in the real game. Unfortunately I think musonda falls into that category.

    You might be right about Europe but at celtic can we really afford to have a player who is only suitable for a dozen or so games a season

    What he did against Zenit when he came on tells me he's not all hype. He's got great close control and dribbling, and I bet they were glad when his name wasn't on the team sheet for the return leg. He hasn't shown any hint of attitude problems since he's been here despite hardly getting any minutes. He could probably do with some strength training but he'll only get used to the game up here if he's on the pitch. In games like last night I don't see why him and Roberts don't get on.

    I don't know if it's loyalty or tactics with Brendan, but quite often I don't agree with his teams selections.

    Boyata is probably our best defender in training to be fair. That's not why he's *.

    Its a more a case of how bereft of creativity we are upfront yet both him and paddy cant even get off the bench.

    Seems Charly Og has taken all things Celtic off his instagram? I'm almost sure he had posted quite a few photos up including announcing the loan deal, his debut and then the assist against Zenit @Notorious? All gone. :fear:

    Aw *. That’s pretty weird. Did the same with Chelsea when he came here. Think he unfollowed all their players and the club

    Get the feeling its more of an account for promoting him instead of a personal one. No pictures with his bird up anymore either
