    Ronny named him the Scottish Muller, not the media. For once..

    At times looked good, got in about it and made some good runs but he was fecked after the first half, can tell how uncomfortable he is holding out wide and covering back.

    First start in two months or so, wasn't shocking but wasn't great either.

    Seems so awkward on the ball. I'd be more interested to see him in a 4-3-1-2 in the centre along with McGregor and someone else.

    I've never seen ANYONE say he was the Scottish Muller... was it a vague suggestion or something?

    Think it's just another sign that we need to drop the dead weight this summer. They've all had their moments this year (Allan, Armstrong, GMS, Mcgregor, Commons, Rogic, Forrest, Johansen, Bitton) but for the most part they have been lacklustre at best. Rogic has obviously shown he has a future and Bitton was excellent before the contract extension. But at the end of the day I think its time to just say that for the most part these are rotational players on a good Celtic team. Time to sort that midfield out this summer. Wouldn't mind seeing them all go if it meant signing 3-4 SOLID midfiielders who can come in week in and week out and get the job done. Some have shown strides but I think that just another excuse for the fact that we really need quality in the middle.

    Armstrong looks like he has just stopped showing for the ball. Seems to be trying not to do anything wrong rather than making anything happen. It's a shame, but on this form he can't stay in the team next year, and it baffles me that Allan and Christie can't get past him at the moment.

    Slack today after a good start. I thought he left Tierney exposed a few times in the second half. His dead ball delivery was pish anaw

    I thought he had a decent game, especially first half, the whole team like him did drop out thought 2nd half.

    Still think he's a central player, and with his engine could do a job as one of the holding players, can spot a pass too.

    I don't think he is much of an engine.Always looks out of breath and struggles to keep up with play at times.

    Not good enough to play centrally in a very poor Celtic side when the manager played injured players before him tells us all we need to know really. And considering we spent approximately £2million on him if he was seen as being any good he would have played. Bye bye just another that can't handle the pressure of playing for Celtic.

    Still think he could do a job for us. How many people completely wrote off Tom Rogic before this season?

    Worst footballer of the lot. Never seen anything to suggest otherwise. I personally don't buy the argument "it's because he's played on the left!". He cant trap, pass, cross or shoot. His positioning and reading of the game is also suspect. He tackles like a girl as well.

    Get rid ASAP, will make a great lawyer

    Played well out of position by Ronny like so many others. We haven't even seen half of what this boy can offer. He's one of the main guys happy that Ronny is offski

    he has the touch of a rapist and the vision of 2 day old bat. Cant pass, cant trap, cant cross, watching him take corners is like watching a monkey repeatedly burn himself with matches.

    He is complete and utter pish.

    Just seen this. Interesting you say that. If anyone has taped the diets game away....After when we're all celebrating and holding hand's giving it oles. Ronny turns round and sticks his arm out to Armstrong who looks, blanks and walks in the opposite direction..
