Olivier Ntcham

He needs to be starting games best passer in the squad, selling him would be daft as *.

 

That pass man.

 

Should 100% be starting

 

That pass was * ridiculous.

It’s baffling thinking he canny get a start.

 

I'd like him starting more games for sure. Christie seems to have gone bit quiet last few games, would he fit into his role?

 

I dont agree with people calling for him to replace Christie, but I do think he should start these sort of games over Brown. Brown was good tonight but theres no real reason to start him over Ntcham when we face teams that park the bus.

 

The reason he doesn't start is bcoz brown is captain, easily the most gifted midfielder at Celtic park. It's a tough call tho bcoz he can look like he's not interested at times.

 

Christie is never seeing that pass. How Ntcham can't get more minutes is mind boggling

 

He needs to start games.

Would even considering starting him in place of Christie just now. Christine's passing is way off the past couple of games.

 

Watching Ntcham, I'm convinced he spent a lot of his younger development years playing Futsal.

The way he frequently controls, and rolls the ball with his sole of his foot, coupled with the way he tries to control the tempo he plays at. As put earlier, he's absolutely ideally suited to play against teams sat in deep.

Whereas Christie's strengths are better suited to defences that push up, and allow space for runners.

 

Was class when he came on but i dont think Lenny will drop Broony for him but he should when we play teams like Killie he gives us more going forward

 

When he is on his game he oozes class but there are good reasons that Christie is being picked ahead of him.

19/20 season totals:

Ntcham - 38 games, 8 goals, 4 assists

Christie - 43 games, 19 goals, 16 assists

 

Has to start at the weekend, ideally in Brown's place, but if not then in Christie's place. His technique and passing ability is light years ahead of both of them.

All about consistency with him, but right now he deserves to be starting.

 

i dont think its between him and Christie i think its between him and Brown

 

In a 3-5-2 domestically. Ntcham over Brown 90% of the time now.

Edit: This should happen but it won't and especially in this season of all seasons.

 

Few people above suggesting he should start ahead of Christie.

 

Filth!

 

He is head and shoulders above Christie imo, whether he gets the chance to show it this season is another matter.

 

Ability-wise, aye.

Output-wise, nowhere close.

Dropping Christie from the 10 spot for Ntcham after last season would be crazy.

I think on good surfaces and against mobile opponents there's a case to go with Ntcham ahead of Broony. Fir Park, Easter Road etc.
