    Clearly back in the mood.

    Amazing what a change of management has done to him and others to be fair.

    He was excellent I thought, that was the old maeda back today. Was refreshing to see how buzzing he was when osmand scored that third goal

    If we had signed Maeda start of this season, he'd be escorted out of the stadium by now.
    His confidence is truly shot.
    Or, he is just a terrible footballer - likely a bit of both.
    Honestly, as bad as Yang this season.

    Sooner he goes, the better - his value will down from.£14M to about £140,000 soon

    He tried hard despite fumbling so much. * just can't help but pity this clumsy, brave warrior, and let him have a moment of glory. I love Maeda.

    He’s never a right winger in a million years, really wish we’d try Tounekti there even if it’s just for a spell during a game.

    You would think it would suit Tounekti on the right as he doesn’t like crossing the ball and often tries to find a pass so getting to the byline and looking to cut back would seem to suit him you would think.

    I thought Maeda looked more like the player we have seen all season compared to the Rangers game. The way he turned up at Hampden with the hair slicked back and that just looked ready to go. Where as this kind of messy hair look genuinely looks like he can’t be arsed being there. Still out in a shift and it was a cracking goal but should have had a hat trick today

    Not a critique of his performance as I've only seen the highlights, but he looked like he'd rather have been anywhere but Celtic Park last night.
