    Efe ambrose all over again. Please don’t play the racism card because they are both black I’m talking about as a player nothing else. He will be very good for about 3 games then make a complete * of it in a important European game or against the huns and cost us big time. We’ve all seen this movie before, I don’t want a re-run.

    I can remember him having a bang-average game or two (as all players can), but I don't think I've seen him 'make a complete * of it'...

    I really like him, he never hides.

    Even in the old firm game when most people thought he was * he was one of a few player that was at least trying to make something happen and constantly making himself ava8lable. Not just letting the game pass him by like it did so many.

    I think you’re getting a bit excited. When did I write off Klimala? He was poor against Clyde, twatted it straight at the keepers chest when all he had to do was either go round the keeper or hit it low. However he may well go on to become a great Celtic striker, we will see.

    Mate I actually had the same thought the other day.

    After Lenny saying he needed a bit of time out without much context, we can only think he hasn’t settled in Glasgow or something. Looked like he was fitting in well at the beginning as well, on all the club videos on twitter and what not.

    I've said in here very recently I dont think hes as bad as is being made out.

    But I just havr a feeling something has happened or Lennon doesnt want him.

    As I say it's a gut feeling. Would probably be rash if he did go.

    I'd actually rather he played tomorrow than Hayes.

    But it wont happen.

    Was rumours of that before a falling out with him and Lenny after Huns game and how he'd be dropped. Then went missing for a while after with no injuries..

    I think he has a lot to offer personally but if there is a rift and we have an option of getting a quality left back in the summer as our number 1 with Taylor fighting it out...I wouldn't be that against it either..

    It's an interesting one, i think the fact that Lenny has given Taylor the no 1 LB position, it will be clear tae Boli that he may well be 3rd choice for the position, in that respect i canny see him staying beyond the summer.

    Must say i agree with Lenny's judgement on this, think Boli has good qualities but his positional discipline isn't the best.

    He's been great for us in the Europa League, yes he's had some dodgy games overall but I can't understand why he's been ostracised.

    I like Taylor but he's got a lot of room for improvement, Boli at his best has been better than Taylor

    Hayes genuinely should be out of the picture at this point but he's Lenny's favourite of the 3. I also admire Hayes but he's a bog standard winger who for some reason has been converted into a left back.. He's nowhere near good enough

    We need better for Europe than all 3 of them tbh, but from what we've seen this season so far he has to start Boli in these euro games

    I think hes always going to be one of those players who I'll never feel 100% on to be honest.

    I dont think hes as bad as folk have said. In fact, hes had some good performances in big games this season (the 2-0 game at Ibrox I actually thought he was excellent for instance) and in Europe hes not done anything wrong.

    But much like Simunovic I just feel like he can be targeted.

    I'd like a LB similar to what we have with Elhamed when fit on the right. Bit of height and strength.

    Defensively aye hes not up to it. But I think we knew that when he signed...it was something both Rapid Vienna fans and Brugge fans had said.

    Question Mark's are still there for me too with Taylor. It's probably still a position we have to look at.

    Elhamed played there for Israel and he looked excellent. But then that takes another option away from the right.

    I agree at his best, Boli looks the best of our left backs..

    He isn't in my opinion but like you say....he deffo does switch off and has a brain fart in him..

    I do think Boli has a lot of improvement in him. Was a winger and wing back who came straight in to tough qualifiers in an unsettled back line as a left back. He has pace and doesn't stop bombing up and down tgat left left flank. Is an unreal outlet at time's and before injury was really coming on to a game..

    Think he'll be sold in the summer. Not even in the squad these days
