    Looking better every week, and looking every bit the £12m player.

    I was worried that he runs with his head down too often, but he was playing nice little one-twos and mixing up his dribbling today. He faded in the second half, but still a very encouraging performance.

    Definite starter next week.

    Seems like a sound wee guy! Obviously knows hes a bit of a prospect and could go on to do big things where as Forrest has a stinking attitude and is half the player

    Great feet, quick, can pick a pass and has good awareness. Really looking forward to see what this lad can do when he is fully up and running. Great that we have got him for next season.

    Adds a bit of variety and unknown quantity which keeps opponents guessing.Creates opportunities for himself and others everytime he gets the ball.

    However we shouldn't be to reliant on him to win us games(like it was expected of McGeady) and looking to him to be the main source of everything.

    Miles ahead of any player on the park yesterday.

    A breath of fresh air. We have about 12 attacking midfielders and him and Forrest are the only ones who run at defenders. A similar player on the left would make a massive difference to this team.

    Looking far too much for this boy to win us games

    One thing I don't like is him cutting inside all the time I want too see him hitting the by line more and cutting in the box

    He's already won us a game against Hearts. Cannae expect it every week at his age.

    I do agree he trys to come inside too much but he's good at it, two guys go to him and he jinks his way thru them. Should just learn to mix it up a bit.

    He'll be massive for us next season, amazing talent.

    Half the time there is no point in him hitting the byline because we have nothing to aim for in the box. Plus it would force him to use his right foot more which is obviously weaker.

    If he is cutting it back like you say then aye but high balls etc...he'd be as well just doing what he is best at.

    The best in the World come inside, we shouldn't be telling him to do anything just play his natural game.

    He's a match winner, an entertainer and he's going to be some player for City. Sterling 50 million? This guy has already proven he's more technically gifted.

    Aye fair point we're much better as a team when we keep the ball on the deck.

    Got to laugh. £50 million for that fud Sterling and they send Roberts out on loan.

    And even worse - Navas is still a regular for them. No wonder they are where they are in the league.

    They also persist with Demichelis ahead of Denayer.

    Guardiola will change that.
