Ki

Cracking game, good workrate, good corners and free kicks.

Every single Celtic player had a good game.












PS...




Glasgow Celtic Champions!!!

 

That's all good, but can he outmuscle Keith Lasley on a pishing Wednesday night at Fir Park?

 

twardzik is still a bit behind him imo especially if ki puts in performances like that but twardzik will definitely be getting more game time he only showed a small but of what is to come from him

 

I he can just look at last season where he bossed the old firm and out muscled all there players. ki with a run of games and a bit of confidence is a top player he needs more consistency but to say he isn't physical enough is a lot of bollocks. the only problem I have had with ki is he sometimes shows a lack of desire or doesn't understand how to press the ball but when he plays like that today he would be the best midfielder in scotland by some distance

 

Yeh your right hes still behind him, too small just now too i feel. Think we may have to wait a few years till he gets bigger till hes comfertable in midfield, hopefully without ruining the bhoys talent.

 

I was kidding man, of course he was very good today, like all players. Just unlucky with that free-kick when their keeper punched it high.

Yeah, he can let the players get away with the ball in the middle too often, doesn't press enough and should get involved in duels more. He's far from a shitebag, just needs to improve that part of his play.

 

He was good today. That's my main gripe about him playing as well. I think that's where the myth comes from that he's too lightweight. He needs to improve his marking during play.

Today isn't the day for me to moan about that though, he chased well today.

 

he hardly had time under mowbray, and I would like to know what poor run of form you are talking about because this season and the last he was one of our best players in the run up to january, last year he was our best player the first half of the season, and he played well when he came back from the asian cup he just wasnt getting starts do to kayal and ledley playing well, this year he has been great too, too many people will remember the 2 or 3 bad games he has a season and totally ignore all his good performances. And he was one of our best players today, although everyone played very well

 

how old is twarzik anyway like 18 so there is still plenty of time for him the fact he has been around the first team since he was 16-17 is good I think your right that he might struggle in cm but out on the left or playing in sort of commons role today would be a good position to get him in to further his development until he is 21-22 then he will have the experience and a better build to play cm. having said that he did take one of the killie players right out it the day and looked to get stuck in a bit as well so who knows just glad our youth academy is producing players like him

cool mate wasn't really sure just the majority of these pages are filled with him not being physical enough

 

Thought he was very poor today tbh

 

Exactly, techical players are what we need

 

He was good today but him being lightweight certaintly isn't a myth. He can't tackle, is to slow, and doesn't mark very well which means that he will never be a regular starter imo.

 

that doesn't make him lightweight it just means the defending side of his game is poor lightweight to me means he gets muscled off the ball easily or doesn't have the body strength to compete which isn't true

 

he has the strength, he just doesn't use it. He gets muscled off the ball constantly which is why we conceded away to Sion at the end of that game, also happened against hibs in his first year here which caused us to lose. Its just so frustrating to see him get muscled off the ball by smaller players and it happens all the time. He has improved somewhat but nowhere near enough.

He exhibited that on a number of occasions today. He is a good passer of the ball, but he really needs to work on many more aspects of his game.

 

Bit of a shitebag when it comes to tackles mind you

 

Hats off to the whole team today, Ki included. Doesnt take away from the fact he has been here 2 years now, played 80 odd games and has underperformed.

I didnt say he had a run of poor form. But when he doesnt play well theres always an excuse. Long flights, virus, playing too deep, playing too forward, playing too wide.

All midfielders being fit, he wont get a game. That has to be obvious, even the much maligned Samaras is ahead of him in the pecking order. We should just cut our losses and move him on.

 

Ki played very well today I thought and must have put himself in the shop window, But I am in broad agreement with you that it would probably be better for the player and the club if he moves in the summer.I said the same on Donati and I think the same criteria exists here, as I think Ki is not ideally suited to the SPL

 

I'd like him to have one more season, to see how he further develops now he's an SPL title Champion. That goes for a fair few of the lads, for me. Though i'd get Loovens out personally.

 

Give him another season to develop and then he leaves on a pre contract for free?

I would rather we take what we can for him now and use it to reinvest in the squad. We have plenty of good midfielders, he wouldnt be missed.
