    "James has trained well this week and is available for Livingston, but I need to decide whether to include him or not,” said the Celtic manager on Friday. "If it's not tomorrow, then he will definitely be involved on Thursday. It's good to have him back.”

    Think back to when him and Roberts were competing for the RW spot he really upped his game. Reckon him and Abada will both benefit from some competition for starts.

    What a miss at the death-and spare the he not match fit, was horrendous.

    Interesting that he didn't really take his men on when he came on today. Looked to just get crosses in whenever he could instead of going after his man first and foremost. First game back though so hardly anything to be overly-concerned about. Just glad we have some options available for the wide areas once again.

    Great to have him back. Missed a sitter at the end but GG managed to * it up even worse when it fell to him.

    Defo. Jota is the last person I would want off when we are needing a goal. Has had no problem playing 90 mins previously.

    Did reasonably well when he came on. Bit rusty, as you would expect. Looked lively enough, though, and played a couple of dangerous passes into Livi’s box. Still stand by what I said upthread, and, like I said, it’s still good he’s available for domestic games where I expect he’ll still have a positive influence.

    He hasn't done that for a while.to be fair. He's more of a pass and move player these days

    Aye can't really remember any of his more recent performances at the start of the season. Will keep a closer eye on it and see if there's a change right enough.

    Actually at the time, was a good call by Ange to move Bitton back to CB, with zero defending to do, when CS went off injured. Would have been hailed as a master stroke if that penalty had been scored or JF burried that chance.

    Running about like he's been playing for 5 hours, you'd never know he's only been on for 20 minutes, lazy *.

    I think because he’s been out so long folk seem to think he’s better than he is. Abada all day long for me.
