    He does much more than that..

    Runs his * off. Can play back to goal and link the play. Isn't very quick but makes up for it by his cleverness and first touch..

    Aye, if Aitchison is to make it with us or at a decent level it will likely be as an attacking midfielder as he doesn't really have the height, pace or strength to play as a striker or on the wing but he can hold onto a ball well and has good vision and technique.

    Aitchison is neat on the ball and a good finisher. Shame he's not pacey because he doesn't quite have the physicality (yet) to get away with not being quick, if he's to move up to a level.

    Must be around the same height as Hooper? If he can add a bit of muscle then there's definitely a player there.

    I've always thought he had a similar playing style to Stokes, good link-up can run with a ball and beat players with nice ball control and touch but has the physical ability of someone like Scott McDonald, small, not too quick, short legs but can hold a ball well under pressure.

    Can't imagine it really translating to being a striker at Celtic but culd imagine him playing off a striker.

    Surely the myth that there’s a specific physical mould for every position has now been well and truelly buried in 2018?

    Is he any smaller than David Villa?

    Not seen Henderson play yet tbh, but heard good things

    But with aitchison imo, he should have been given a run of games by now in the first team, he just has that knack for scoring goals, and he’s a tidy player. I like him.

    If Griffiths can hardly get game time what chance has Aitchison got, he needs to go out on loan.

    Aye maybe worded incorrectly there, obviously given dembele, Griffith’s and now Edouard is in from of him not got much of a chance. But I feel by now given his age and the kind of player he is, he should be getting first team football here or somewhere else

    He looks very good from what I saw.

    Thought wee Aitchison did a lot of work, but wasn't actually impressed as a striker.

    Looks a far more promising player than his Brother, and I was a big fan of Liam.
    Every time I have seen him play he has been out standing.
    Hopefully see more of him this season.

    Think he looks a brilliant prospect,needs to be first team football now imo.Will always get compared to his brother but the looks like he has that little bit extra class about him,Liam is a good beat and tidy player but Ewan looks like the sort of player who can win games for you,bit like Rogic imo

    Problem here is the brother Liam was being touted as a big prospect and then loaned out several times. As a family unit I’m sure they have spoken at length about the pitfalls and sticking around too long. Liam will advise him also and you can understand any apprehension on that side.

    Liams making a very good career in Italy based on the start he had here. Be a silly boy to not realise what we done for him.

    Can see why he’s apprehensive, his position is probably the hardest to get into in the Celtic team and his brother never made it here. In terms of his career it would be better for him to go elsewhere and play more games than sit around here waiting to get the odd chance in the first team

    Very good is a bit generous no? I do agree he has played well, but it's the serie B and he played with Bari who were relegated and now plays for a team that sit 9th.

    He’s better than his brother IMO.

    I have high hopes for him, hope he stays.
