    He can be absolutely infuriating but is undoubtedly a goal threat for us. Don't have too many of those either.

    I might be against the grain here, but I thought he was better than Engels when they came on.

    Would go with this, as we won't see a change of system

    His languid style is frustrating but he is a threat.

    He’ll always sniff out an opportunity which is massive in this current Celtic side that don’t create much

    This. He may not be someone who we’ll be shifting for £15m+ when the time comes but the team is on its knees in an attacking sense and we just aren’t in a position where we can leave a goal threat like that out the team.

    He makes things happen and will come with a guarantee of goals. * I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he finishes out top scorer this season tbh.

    My main issue with him is how long he takes to do anything. Quite often the pass is on and it could put someone through or result in a decent chance but he * about on it for far too long. But for the time being he has to play.

    He would do a job up front, always gets himself in a good position in the box and can put it away.

    He looks a good player that is stuck in a system that doesnt get the best out of him.

    I dont think passing and possession heavy football suits him.

    Its frustrating because I think our midfield players have so much more to offer than we see week in week out.
