    I would try him at LWB for now, against the likes of St Mirren, seeing as he will have limited opportunities in midfield.

    Would rather see Connell there if we're going to shoehorn players into the 3-5-2 but we really should be getting another LWB in now with boli the wally gone.

    Imagine buying one of the leagues, sats wise, creative and attacking players and think playing him at lwb is a worthwhile idea.

    Nonsense.

    Attacking cm at lwb, right backs at CB, strikers not on the park (and defending it), some amount of weird * folk want to see us play at times (note, not all the same people say all the things).

    No way, he will be judged in a position thats alien to him which is totally unfair. Give the boy the best opportunity to impress the Celtic support by playing him in the position he is most comfortable in.

    Think we know how playing players out of position normally goes.

    Said it before he signed... he should be walking into the team.

    Much more dynamic than Brown and his form is better than McGregor’s.

    I know it's early days for Turnbull, more so than Soro, but we've spent roughly 5.5-6m on the two of them. If they are not going to start games, they need to at the very least be getting regular minutes off the bench otherwise they'll amount to nothing.

    Turnbull may very well start the next game and I'll be moaning for nothing but we seen it time and time again with new players not getting integrated into the team quick enough.

    IMO we rarely utilise our subs at the right time.

    This for me we can’t afford to keep spending money on positions We are well stocked in when we have A gapping whole in another (LB/LWB).

    Granted Soro came in as competition for the DM slot but has not had a sniff. Turnbull needs to play to show what he can do. I would say despite having plenty of talent in there, it hasn’t really come together this season as yet. We need to find our best combination and stick with it giving the others minutes from the bench.

    Lennon also needs to have a hard conversation with Brown about leaving him out.

    Does Turnbull take set pieces?

    Better than having him sitting on bench-and likely better job than Taylor
