    Played brilliantly well at the weekend, but he's been mince before this.

    I don't believe he can play the Commons role, but slightly back.

    I don't like Mulgrew in midfield, but he seemed to let Brown and Johansen off the leash which helped us. Although I guess the opposition has to be taken into context.

    More of this please Stefan.

    I think this guy looks a better player when he's playing in a more advanced position. He has a nice eye for a pass and he's good at making runs into the box. He's also capable of putting the ball in the back of the net when he does get in the box. I'd like to see him get a few games in the attacking midfielder position behind the striker. I think he'd do well there.

    He was supposed to be our playmaker tonight but he fizzed one through for scep that i.can remember..
    We're looking for guys who can make things happen when they get on the ball like most European teams have but we are completely lacking in this department which sees us constantly have to go predictably wide as we can't break teams down..

    He finished his chance lovely and had quite a good second half but i expect.better in that role..

    Didn't show much of Saturday's form tonight , however I think he may have been hindered by the low key performance of Virgil , Denayer and Mulgrew. I also noted that Brown's form tonight was below his standard . Just as Johansen didn't become a star by Saturday's performance , he hasn't become useless by Thursday's night . Every out field player depends on the performance of his colleagues . It's no surprise by far our best player over 40 years was Larsson who had the best team- mates any Celtic player had in years, Larsson was the star among very good players .

    Anyone else think he's got his mojo back? I think he's been class recently

    Wouldn't say he was ever that bad. Was slated for trying something different from the usual sideways passing

    Was really good last night I thought. Being pushed up has helped while we've got brown doing what he does best and either mulgrew or kayal next to him.
    Seemed too exposed while playing next brown but he's played much better in recent matches. Fair play to him.

    Miles better the last couple of games, still a long way to go till hes back to what he showed qhen he arrived but hes starting to look like a tidy player again.

    Should never have been playing deeper, bundles of energy doesnt make you a holding player, lacks the physical side of that role. He should be driving forward all day long, one of the first names on the team sheet for me

    Think 2mil could be a steal if he keeps up this form!

    One of the few players that I thought deserved pass marks. His set piece delivery is brilliant.

    Brilliant playing that bit further up -the Commons role.
    Feel he offers more to that position than Commons does. He has good passing and vision, good drive. His crosses are good, and he can offer a lot more to the central midfield than Commons can.

    He'll be hard to drop from that position, and I think with him there we are seeing a bit more of what Deila wants the team to play like.
