    That was brilliant. Slowed down as if he was going to check his run then quickly knocked it forward and left the hearts player for dead.

    Sexy.

    You definitely weren't the only one who didn't want him here.

    That's true, although I'm never happier than when I have to munch a big slice of humble pie. It means good things for Celtic. :50:

    Shooting was diabolical first half. Low wayward shot's and should've hit the target with the lob..

    Was greedy second when he should've laid off Shooders (I think) but made up for the slagging with an assist..

    Usually always does it..

    His pass for the Sinclair goal was perfection.

    Absolute gash all game then comes up with that pass! Although i thought he'd * it when he took the extra touch.

    His touch is good when he's moving it in front of himself and running on to things but when he gets it with his back to goal it's often horrendous. Link up play generally has been poor this season but he's probably the hardest working player i've seen and along with Rodgers guidance I think he can improve the areas where he struggles.

    He already has two assists at least this season.

    If he keeps that up he will be on about 20 assists for the season.

    I'll take that * link up play all day...

    So he's got an area he could improve on but what's the point because he gets a few assists anyway? Why not work on it and get more assists?

    His main job is to score goals, he is unbelievable at it.

    He should be left to do what he does best.

    I never said that.

    If he continues at the current rate he'll be on 40 goals and 20 odd assists.

    If he improves then * help world football. :smiley-laughing002:

    Not his best game I thought he was trying to hard to score against the diets, but that assist was magnificent.

    Amazes me how many easy "should have put away chances" he wastes and scores the hard chances... Even at that his assist today didn't look like he had anything left then put it that cross! Again a hard thing to do.

    His work rate alone gets him goals & assists, it's incredible. Even today I think his shooting wasn't great, he's too keen to get the goal especially against the diets. The setup for the goal was top class though:shamrock:
