    Good for him. He always seemed like a really likeable character when he was at Celtic so happy for him.

    He's got the attitude to keep improving, he may be a late bloomer where he has that one or 2 strong seasons when hes like 27 28.

    Will be interesting to see how he cracks on in Europa after that goal a he clearly was feeling the misses more

    If only he'd been able to skelp the Huns with us. This skelping will do, I guess. Love the guy.

    Always rather we'd kept hold of him over signing Idah, neither are good enough as it stands to be starting regularly for us, but of the two Oh has the much better attitude/workrate and I think more likely to improve over time, even during his loan Idah struck me as a big lazy * who thinks he's the main man but will never put in the work to actually become that.

    He does do the business though and is a good allround footballer.

    5 goals in 597 minutes for South Korea
    12 goals in 1397 minutes for Celtic
    16 goals in 1608 minutes for Genk
    33 goals in 3602 minutes / a goal every 109 minutes

    Strong record for someone who only started 6 games for us, 15 for Genk and 4 for South Korea, he's scored more goals than games he's started for 3 different teams.

    Shows a good mentality even, to rarely start or get any decent runs of playing consistently but continually score goals.

    If you include his assists, he scores or assists every 90 minutes for Celtic, Genk and South Korea.

    Only thing he's yet to prove is if he can do that while playing week in week out starting games. If he plays 50 games this season starting 40 say, will he end up with 25-30 goals and 5-10 assists.

    He will have a decent career and he has lots of attributes that teams can use. For us, I don't think he was ever going to be prolific enough and that's fine.

    If idah had Ohs energy and determination he would atill be here imo.
    Idah was a decent finisher but lacked the energy. Oh is bit erratic but he works his * off and just needed to be more composed and clever
