    He wouldn't get into our team ahead of Forrest, GMS, Armstrong, Christie and possibly Elounyssi on form not a chance

    He'll never get a game here. I'd he goes to the Crumbledome he'll improve their team, but I can't see them being able to afford any decent transfer fee.

    Wasn't too impressed by him.

    Looks to have a bit of pace and strength, but not much else.

    Exactly my feelings on this one. I'm sure he's a decent enough lad as well, being a Celtic fan, etc. but I really don't think he'd add anything to us, any other team yeah but not us. We need quality.

    Dont agree with this in terms of the first too, no were near as good a FOOTBALLER as armstrong anyway, hes all about his pace imo and getting in behind.

    Exactly this, celtic play in front of teams more often than not, when teams have 11 men behind the ball, not sure how well he would suit into our system.

    Think he is a decent player,a level below what we need though,forrest Gms are better wingers imo.Would prefer to give Nesbitt a chance than sign him.Just my opinion though
    If the way 19 years old I would take a chance,think hes 25?

    Aye but maybe he's got more pace than Armstrong and Johansen - who are both quick players.

    He's got power to get to the byeline and lay on goals. Cheap deal. What's not to love.

    He's scored good goals against us in the past. Lots of assists in other games - he's quick and really likes to take players on, get to the byeline and he has end product.

    He's one that passed my by as well, but looking at it right now it's sometimes the less obvious deals that have the right impact.

    In this system he'll run all day. He's a lot quicker than i thought and looking through the archives on Youtube, there is definitely more reason to sign him, than to noise up Sevco.
    He's also a tidy footballer.

    In this team he'll keep possession as well. But blistering pace and a good range of goals, lots of assists. He's a bit different than others we've brought in, he's already developed. Just needs to move onto bigger and better things.

    500k, i'm sure his pace would surprise a few folk on here.

    How many goals has he scored against us in the past? I can only recall one.

    If we were ever serious id consider a swap loan untill the summer with yound nesbitt.

    Nesbitt would get valuable spl experience under his belt and we can access michael before making that option to buy.

    Yes 500k isnt much off a gamble, but if hes not good enough he would be another player to clog up our dressing room, eating up another wage and preventing us signing players that can actually make an impact in our starting 11.

    I think this is a tactic we should be giving serious consideration too.

    It will suit st johnston too because they will get a quality replacement for the next few months plus they know if ohalloran makes his mark we would pay an agreed fee which will be above anything the huns will dream to afford. And if o'halloran goes back his value wont dip below the 200k they last offered and they player might be all the better for the experience

    He's never Celtic class for fucksake, he'd struggle to get a game for Aberdeen never mind us.

    Johansen, Armstrong, GMS, Forrest, Commons, Allan, Christie, Rogic, McGregor, Henderson... not only is he worse than all them, he's also older than all them(except Commons)

    I didn't see anything yesterday to make me think he would add to the team. The squad needs streamlined not filled with more average players.

    Never realised he was 25, thought he was younger than that.
