    In a dynamic 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 under a progressive coach, he could thrive.

    He is slow for a winger tho and like @McGuire says, for what he'd cost probably better out there.

    For those who are in love.....
    He's definitely played his best football in a 4-2-3-1..

    You could make a case for him that having a slow Taylor who can't overlap often enough, hindered Mo because of his lack of pace and having to come inside. Laxalt's inability to link up well enough also..

    He has also scored in some big game's/moment's for us..

    He could flourish and has a lot of quality but in a lot of game's against the pishy side's....he isn't effective at all. Easy to play against..

    Pace in our league kills. We lack it massively now. So much of our attacking play is to feet and back's to goal. We don't have enough runner's beyond or boy's who can rip it up out of nothing by skinning their man with pace, skill and a drop of the shoulder..

    We need a good few of those in to this side in every department..

    I'm willing to give guys the benefit of doubt due to * standards Lennon dragged is dien to.

    But that only goes out to actual celtic players and not loans. Which isn't is good fault as I'm sure he'd do wonders with a real football coach.

    But I'd be moving on now

    If he was available at no more than 4 million then I would sign him. But anymore than that it's a NO NO. I still do feel the lad would be an asset to us. He does put in a shift

    I still want to sign him if he’s available at a reasonable price. Theirs a great player there and we have seen it. Been inconsistent this season but has absolute nothing happening around him. Decent LB would make a helluva difference.

    I like him but I think we should be looking for someone similar to Sinclair.

    I honestly don’t get why people would want to sign him for 5 million. I really don’t.

    He goes missing in big games, and I don’t think for the money it will cost and wages to get him here that he is value for money.

    that money could be better spent elsewhere.

    Minds me a bit of that Kamara we had under Mowbray, he’s got something but not totally convincing. Just get the feeling he lacks a bit of drive.

    Not worth what we'd be asked to pay. Flashes of brilliance are not enough.

    It’s not just big games he goes missing 2/3of the time in general. Most frustrating player we have cos his first few games he looked * hot and he’s had his moments this season

    Tough call but I would say no to re-signing him.

    We can all see he has quality but his lack of pace is a concern for me and I’m not sure where his best position is.

    For what be would probably cost (in the region of £6m), I think we could sign 2 players with just as much quality and potential from the smaller European markets.

    that miss against the darkside in an early fixture - simple lift over the keeper makes the game 1-1 - couldn't manage that proved costly.
    missed a few on sunday too.
    not clinical - seems moody
    not for me - what second loan spell ever comes off a good decision.

    karlsson tortured us for prague - more effective and prob less expensive. soton will find it hard selling him on.

    The failing was more with others than him. Edouard was worse in the first half of the season, for example.

    I would sign him if he’s going for £5m.
