    Aye if they come off.

    Don't get me wrong I like him and he shows real desire but putting a shot in every time he gets onto the edge of the box isn't the answer all the time.

    We had 3 players behind the striker there today who are all quite shot hungry in general, would be nice if we had someone able to thread a pass more often than not, to mix it up a bit. I can understand why folk might be frustrated slightly.

    It's not, once he gets it he'll calm down a wee bit and play his own game. Should of had it today, perfectly good goal got ruled offside.

    They have come off for him more often than not in the last 18 months. He's probably been our best player so far this season so I'll spare him the vitriol (Not that you were doing that, more a match thread thing).

    He's got talent but his decision making isn't there yet, not the finished article.

    That's coincidental because that's how I view you.

    Was like a younger Commons out there today, just lashing at shots here there and every where and hogging the ball the greedy begger

    Seems to flit in and out of most games.

    I'm trying to find positives about him but I'm far from convinced that he deserves to be an automatic starter.

    i think thats a tad harsh if im honest, he was the bright spark when all else looked dull, agree now that we have more depth, a little spell on the sidelines would help, but i do think he deserves his place up until now

    His worst game so far for us. He has the ability and the decision-making will come as he matures.

    His disallowed goal today was onside, he got a assist, was looking dangerous sometimes so how in the * can this be his worst game?

    He's set the bar high for himself which is great..

    Still don't think he's a winger would like to see him beside Johansen and Brown in a 4-3-3 of:-

    Gordon

    Izzy
    VVD
    Denayer
    Mathews

    Johansen
    Brown
    McGregor

    Forrest
    Commons
    Guidetti

    He doesn't have the fitness yet to be an automatic started, I'd start him mostly in games where he has a greater chance of getting goals.

    Because he's been better in all the other games he's played?

    If he gets a goal tonight, is there a record for a Celtic player scoring in consecutive European away games?

    Didn't Samaras score in 5/6 away games?
