    Ki needs to starts playing his natural game in europe for us, along side 2 of Kayal/Wanyama/Brown.

    Remember Xavi and Iniesta cant tackle for *, but Barcalona are still the best team at getting the ball back in the world.

    There are too many occasions where matches just pass Ki by. If we get a good offer for him in the summer then I would let him go.

    How long does he have left on his contract? As long as we have him tied down the ball is in our court

    If we get any offer we should take it. He is a squad player now and will never have what it takes to make it here. Has had long enough.

    The Korean "Steven Gerrard". Heartless player who is too inconsistent.

    I think the problems started when he was forced to make the round trip air trip to Korea then to Uzbekistan then back to Glasgow for no absolute reason. After that, he was never the same.

    they aren't great tacklers but they are great at closing down space and working tirelessly to get it back when out of possession, which ki is not.

    :50: Ledley has the best workrate in the team and covers an absolutely phenomenal amount of ground. far to often he is wasted out wide.

    Mate Ki turned the ball over nearly everytime he touched it on sunday. In the first half same goes for sammy, a player who most, including myself, were giving pass marks. Ki numerous times passed it straight to a rangers player with seemingly no options in that direction, just a blind pass to nowhere.

    Xavi and iniesta are amazing at pressing the ball though, ki isnt, he's far too slow closing.players down, something xavi and iniesta are masters at, so that is nonsense.

    Ridiculous comment in my opinion, heartless my fat *, support players and criticize them when it is warranted but why is it abuse is only allowed to certain players in our team but when abuse is directed towards the favourites we get shot down? Hypocrites.

    It is something bad when Ki overlooks good passes to play square balls to cha which happens all to often when they are played together, plenty of times this year Forrest/Brown have been in much better positions than cha but Ki plays a square pass into Cha's path rather than hitting Forrest/Brown who were in better positions and in general do more with the ball once they recieve it than Cha.

    Heartless is right, IMO. Probably my biggest criticism of Ki is that, doesn't have the heart to be a successful Celt.

    He's a stick on for the part of the cowardly lion.

    Think he's good when were winning because he can keep the ball well but when were behind he doesn't have the heart to chase the ball and win it back and therein lies the problem. Would sell him if we got a decent offer but he's obviously a shirt seller in Lawells eyes!!

    Ki has become the new Sammy. If we lose blame Ki. Some of our players can not be criticised regardless of their performance.

    He will never be a regular starter here imo, so we would be wise to cash in on him. We should make sure a certain % of his next transfer fee is given to us aswell, because he is the type of player that will excell in a different league which is more suited to him. He has the talent, no doubt about that, but is lacking in other attributes needed to be successful in this league. The strange thing is, he has the physique, yet doesn't use it at all to his advantage.

    He seems almost scared to take a yellow card for the team, always lets other teams continue on their attack, did it against sion and again yesterday, if it had been Kayal for example he would have just fouled the guy, take the yellow card, but more importantly killed the move.

    Nobody is blaming Ki for us getting beat yesterday. People are just pointing out the fact that he had a pish game, which he did. He fails to deliver too often and that's why he gets criticised. It's not rocket science.
