    He’s no a patch on Cha Du-Ri.

    Get the feeling he was playing within himself towards the end here.

    Quality player, no doubt.

    Looking increasingly like the inverted part of his role here didn't suit him as well. Does seem suited to playing a more straightforward RB role. Although someone mentioned LW earlier in the thread :43:.

    Definitely dropped a level this season and I'd put that down to him making sure he was fit for the WC. Is that a called a "Gamboa"?

    I think this is probably true. I can imagine his brain was scrambled. We all knew the World Cup was his big opportunity to get his move and even when it was over his main focus would've been getting that contract signed.

    I don't really blame players for this if I'm being honest. I do the same at my work. The drop in performance was a bit unfortunate but I still think the whole thing was managed superbly well.

    Wee *-end whose heart was only in it for the first few months he was at Celtic - We're far better off with Johnstone whose ability and attitude is excellent.

    He was by far, and I mean by far, at his best for us the period he was playing left back when he first came in.

    Okay, some coach of ours really screwed up. Nobody bothered to test Josip as a set piece taker. At UB, he's scored from a free kick again.

    He did take freekicks for us and was our designated penalty taker.

    Good luck to him this weekend, big game, a win for UB probably means the difference between champions league football for him next season and money for us.

    Good player without a doubt. No chance id swap Johnston for him though and id wager most fans feel the same.

    What is it with the RB connection between Celtic and the Bundesliga

    I would imagine part of his add ons were probably based on Union qualifying for Europe, never mind the CL.

    It's mad we don't even miss him such is the extent of AJ's impact.

    Union had qualified for Europe the past 2 seasons and in January they were second so I'd only imagine that would be a small part of any extras. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a large chunk through CL qualification and another part after playing x amount of games.

    I never really rated Josip, Johnston's better.

    I always thought honestly there was not much between Juranovic and Ralston. Since we got Johnson in he's miles ahead of what either were
