    Listen, he's clearly a big mistake and one we all should have seen coming; many of us did. It'll never happen, but if we don't sell for a loss and continue to persist with him then we're only shooting ourselves in the foot.

    Best ignored. Obviously just anti-Irish (or as we used to call it Prodestant)

    Tuesday is his shot at the big time, he has to.

    Get your goals to rubber stamp the European campaign, if he cant then I don't know what to say.

    Fair enough calling a player *


    But it’s a broken record after a while


    Even @Blochairnbhoy isn't that bad

    This angle is gone for me, he could score a hat trick and i think we all know he isn’t our number 9.

    We all know what he is and he will do a job as a 2nd or even third for my expectations but he isn’t ever gonna be a guy im happy with starting a CL game.

    This is an important season for Idah if he’s to prove he’s capable of playing for a club this size.

    His whole demeanour strikes me as a bit lazy tbh.

    He has good attributes for a modern striker. Just can't use them.

    The thing I don’t understand from a club perspective is lack of a striker coach, there’s plethora of brilliant retired strikers we could bring in to help at the top end. Especially just now when we don’t have the quality of Kyogo or Eddy or Moussa.

    Good point. Look at that one week of training we let larsson teach them some stuff. Rattled 9 by Aberdeen.

    Idah and Rodgers keep talking about this "plan" they have in place for him to make him better.

    But the simple fact is if he canny control the ball then we're no getting anywhere fast.

    It's just mental we're going into a UCL qualifier with him as our first-choice striker. Barely ever scores a * goal these days it feels.

    Even getting someone like big Vennegoor in, how to hold the ball up and pin defenders plus the poaching side.

    Wouldn’t be in a rush to punt him. He’s a decent option off the bench. Pathetic from us if we end this window with no striker signed to play ahead of him.

    Right so here’s the question then. We have all been pushing for Celtic to be ambitious and improve. The idea was Kyogo no.1 and idah no.2…. Now Rodgers himself has been vocal Kyogo needs replaced.

    having a £9 mil striker as your number 2, as long as we spend big on a Kyogo replacement (which is yet to be seen). Will that not be classed as ambitious for us?

    It’s so weird what’s happened. When he first came in on loan his first touch control and lay offs were unreal. Almost every time. Really not sure what’s happened since then to almost regress completely in that sense.

    confidence maybe? Maybe he’s one of those guys/strikers who if he misses beats himself up instead of ignoring it and going again.
