    Have a feeling you might be right there. No real reason for it, just a hunch - hope to * I’m wrong.

    Best cameo so far, looked as strong as an ox and absolutely rapid.

    Gave us movement and hassled their defence albeit he looked a bit rusty.

    Aye impressed me with his back to a defender, likes a good tussle and as ye say * sight stronger than he appears.

    Night and day to Idah, for a guy his size never showed that kind of strength holding defenders back, I don't think it was Jenz maybe going back a few years to Julien did my * in as well for the same reason, looked big and strong but got bullied to * by bog standard hammer throwers at times.

    It was the one thing that really stood out in his youtube clips.

    Looks very good with his back to goal..low centre of gravity, big John mcginn erse.

    With the benefit of hindsight we probably would’ve been more threatening had he started but the reality is he’s done very little so far and the front 3 that did start was the one most were calling for. Was clear he rattled them though and he certainly made a difference.

    Noticed that myself. Nearly at Raheem Sterling levels.

    Today was probably 1st time weve really got glimpse of his pace. U actually heard Neil McCann panic as he was chasing down that high ball

    Pace is even more impressive considering he's towing that big John Mcginn *.

    Got the tools to be a success here. Just need to try and get him into goal scoring form.

    Said previously - needs to start 3 to 5 games in a row to see what he’s capable of

    Didn’t think we had much chance scoring till he came on, done his best with little to no service from midfield. Hopefully gets a fair chance in the coming months

    Think he’s the best striker at the club at the moment, and it’s stubborness that’s seen limited gametime for him

    Ironically enough, we probably won't see much of him played properly if the board don't bring someone else in, because Rodgers pride will be piqued and he'll choke him down to make a point to the board. If he's the subs/spare we'll probably see much more of him...

    Think it's up to this guy to shine and pull a kyogo. I believe there's a really good player there, needs some starts
