    That miss affected him for the rest of the game. Every time he got the ball he cut in instead of trying to get to the bye line.

    Genuinely think it was tactical, it happened in tandem. Don't think every player on the pitch can just react like that. Nobody pushing the team forward, looked like that was the way we wanted to play, rather than them forcing us play a different way,

    Very inexperienced and could see from the start he wasn't settled, he's awful off the ball. Left Lustig exposed most of the game.

    His head really went down after the miss which was a shame.

    He should look at it as a learning opportunity, see it as character building.

    * it.

    It happened, can't change it - I'm sure the bhoy will more than atone for it during the remainder of his Celtic career.

    Still don't get the hype. Expected more from him today but he just seems like that annoying kid in the playground that doesn't know when to pass. He kept cutting in and getting nowhere.

    That dreadful miss really effected him though.

    Not bought into the hype surrounding him yet think his price tag is blinkering people

    Typical rat clown, starts some youth player joke in front of Commons. Ye get what ye deserve. Most analytical thinkers are grand, internet propaganda swallowers can go * themselves.

    He is clearly talented, no doubt about it, but that was a * awful miss and you just can't do that on days like today.

    Aside from the howler, he looked energetic, direct, pacy and threatening again. There's definitely something about him, but I hope today isn't the day that defines the rest of his time here. I'm confident he will bounce back.

    You're only in the mood to essentially wish death on a guy managing a * football team I suppose?

    Pathetic.

    He's got talent. His decision making needs to be better, like when Lustig went on the overlap today and he used him as a decoy instead of paying the pass. His passing will have to improve as well, it's too slack at times.

    It's a bad miss, but the world never ended.

    Hopefully we can get a manager in who has a clue, and maybe find some decent midfielders for the boy to interact with.

    To be fair to him, everything good we were doing was going through him, the huns couldnt handle him.

    Then he missed that sitter, its just one of those things * happens he obviously didn't mean to miss and would score that 99 times out of 100 but it clearly affected his confidence from then on out and kept cutting inside everytime. Hes a young boy and today will be very good learning for him - looked gutted at the end aswell so he obviously cares.

    One of our better players today imo and not to blame for our defeat regardless if he should of scored.
