    Fair * to him. Don't get why more young lads who're only ever going to play for average sides don't take the gamble.

    The lifestyle and being on track for citizenship is an opportunity most wouldn't pass up.

    Watching a bit of this 2nd half. The game is bypassing him, barely had a touch.

    Given the exposure football has over there now, if I were a young lad I'd be getting myself over there.

    Fair play to him

    Looking like he'll have Modric as a team mate soon.

    He's not good enough to make it at a top level club like Celtic so playing for Miami and the lifestyle that goes with it is the next best thing. He's landed on his feet, very lucky boy to be given that opportunity.

    Listening to his interview, it seems like the rat fed him constant lies too about playing time etc. Despite the injuries etc.

    One thing though, he’s very aware of his time here and what went wrong. Basically not doing what he did at St Mirren and taking players on. Trying too hard at times also.

    Good interview, liked hearing that honesty about his time here and looking back it makes sense.

    Whilst I get it, maybe he needed to be a bit more confident or ballsy to play the way he was used to playing.

    Honestly, can't fault anyone who goes to play in America now.

    Teams like Miami, the location, that is gonna be some life there, arguably better then anywhere in Europe given the level of club he'd have attracted.

    With the way money is now in football, he's gonna be living well there, I for one, in his situation would have done the exact same thing

    The rat had previous for that. I remember reading the views of a Liverpool fan just before the rat was announced. Said he would constantly lie to players telling him what they wanted to hear and break promises to them. Also he would eat himself if he was made of chocolate but we knew that lol

    He says he was great because he made you feel like the best player in the world. You can just imagine him talking utter *.

    The last straw was of course Dembele.

    Think it was quite interesting how he said that he was never nervous playing for Celtic, because he knew he had guys around him that could do the job if he didnt. When at St Mirren he was that guy expected to do the job.

    I wish he took the St Mirren mindset to us, he could have been much more successful.
