    Aye.

    Albeit, I can see Palma and Abada linking up well. Palma has a knack for cutting inside and curling some good crosses in, and with Abada popping up at the back post...

    I'm sensing a Celtic version of Insigne and Callejon at Napoli a few years back.

    He can’t half cross a ball, some amount of assists so far.

    True. But Abada can be relied on to contribute more than MJ, Yang and Tilio right now.

    Even Forrest would be sitting on 3 goals right now, if he didn't hit the bar at Easter Road, a better contribution than those three.

    He’s different gravy. Been an excellent replacement for Jota. Agree with whoever said it above, his crossing and Abada with his late runs into the box would be a match made in heaven.

    He is unbelievable, * knows what kind of stats he'll be posting at the end of the season. Him signing and O'Riley's form are the real bright spots of the season so far.

    I thought he kind of lifted it rather than smashed it. Looked like he did the keeper and just lifted into the other top corner. Class whatever.

    Wonder if he made the choice himself or Rodgers told him if he's staying on penalties he needs to get that run up to *, either way glad he did.

    Clearly wanted to be anywhere but the pitch for the second half today.

    Yeah id agree with that, didnt fancy it at all in the second half.

    He tried to jink inside and lost the ball on numerous occasions. Killies right back gave him nothing.

    I think he hit one good free kick. Otherwise useless.

    For me he's stuck far too wide at all times. Yes he can pick a pass and put a cross in but feel we miss his ability to put in a decent strike. Could maybe look to move more central if we sort out the wings in Jan.

    The lack of decent left back doesn't help

    Would be perfect to rotate with jota. Hopefully some dodgy dealings go down and we get him back this January.

    Only a great save stopped him from making it 3.
