    A tough watch that. A few of the younger ones don't look physically ready for it, but it's hard to judge against such a good side. Dembele, Henderson and Welsh in particular look like wee boys.

    Some good and bad moments. The only one who has disappointed me is Boli. Never in the right position, and always rushing things.

    Marking at corners still a massive concern I see.

    Boli does well to cut out a pass then hammers a 5 yard pass to Klimala with about 7 defenders around hin

    He was literally muscling the opponent off the ball, dribbling with strength and passing through for Klimala etc.
    He's small and isn't going to win every battle, of course, but he has done well and shown he certainly has the ability to play for us at first team level - not a starter sure, but he should be in the squad for sure now.

    I haven't watched the game but is it unfair to judge a single player without a full strength team around them? This line up is second string

    Think Celtic should have considered the hormone injections with dembelle that Barca did with Messi. Wee guy will struggle with the physical side of the game. Can see his vision and touch but very small.

    You are definitely watching a different game to me. Im not doubting his talent, potential or effort but hes not nearly ready for this level. I guarantee he wont get a sniff this season unless we are 4 up at home with 10 to play..

    What’s the craic with the keeper position?

    Are we really looking at Joe Hart ?

    Not long until the 2nd Aug and need it sorted ASAP

    Agree to disagree.

    Can see obviously you aren't writing the lad off and can see the talent potential. But agree to disagree with the expected game time and where he is at currently. (FYI I 100% not advocating he starts games for us any time soon).
