    Lets play a game, you say a game that Naka or Lubo produced a match winning or game changing moment in and I'll say it for Commons. See who runs out first :icon_mrgreen:

    No, but then neither is Dev.

    He has scored more goals and created more assists.

    That is all Devlin is saying.

    Yes, he is. We've already established this.

    So, in your opinion has Commons done more for Celtic than Lubo and Naka combined?

    In more games.

    I'm surprised he's not thought of the obvious reason for that instead of getting the * knickers on, it's because we're a far poorer team now and he's one of the only * that can do it.

    Bit different when Lubo and Naka was around.

    Goals dont excuse you from playing * though, especially ones like that. Along with Forrest (if you discount Blackett who played as if he was blind and disabled) he was the worst player.

    No, I'm not.

    You've established it in your own head. Doesn't mean it's right :50:

    Didn't Lubo have some game in the Juventus 4 3?

    Bollocks, he was one of our most dangerous. He scored and was directly involved in the two offside goals. If other people do theri jobs and stay onside, thats one * of a performance that. He can only do his part.

    One of the best performances I've seen in the Hoops mate. Along withDidier Agathe that day.

    We were definitely blessed with Lubo even if it was for a short time.

    Agathe in full flow was a sight to behold.

    Wish I was at that game, looked like the most amazing experience, must be one of the all time CL classics.

    Lubo's the most naturally gifted player I've seen at the club, just above Paolo Di Canio. Larsson was without doubt the best though.

    Commons can pop up with those moments, but it would be much better if he actually moved a bit seems like he slows the game down and doesn't do much to track back.

    He missed an absolute sitter that would have put us one nil up and was more than culpable for their first.

    We're talking champions league here, who gives a * what Commons does in the Europa league group stage against teams no where near the quality of what Naka and Lubo faced. Nakamura single handedly got us to the last 16 with that freekick, Commons never got us to the last 16 it was more down to Samaras winning a penalty out of nothing, to compare that penalty and naka's freekick is bonkers. Naka also played a blinder in our win over Benfica which is our biggest win in the champions league. The general consensus on here when we played In the champions league was Commons wasn't up to the standard and near enough everyone was in agreement.

    Lubo's performance against Juve Commons couldn't dream about producing, to say he's done more than both of them combined in Europe is crazy and quite frankly he's been muck in the champions league bar scoring that penalty.
