    Hatate for me.

    Slightly off topic, but talking of Hatate, he honestly wouldn't be out of place in any of the world's best teams as part of their starting 11.

    I don't think he has been that consistent. He was still scoring a few before the WC but his overall performances weren't great to the point a lot of folk wanted GG in. He's been nearer his best over the past couple of months.

    Dembele didn't win it, or did you mean to exceed 30 league goals? Griffiths was that last one to do 30 league goals, Moussa did 32 In all competitions in his first year but not 30 in the league.

    Calmac won it last year, tavpen the year before, no one the Covid year, Forrest before that, then Brown, Sinclair

    You could make a great case for anyone in the spine of the team. CCV, CalMac, Hatate and Kyogo have all been outstanding. However, as it stands id have to give the nod to Reo. Has been different level this season, real next level technical ability. As celtic fans we always wondered what it would have been like to have a young Lubo at the club and I think Hatate is the closest we will get to it. More of an all round midfielder than the genuis of Lubo but they both jusy ooze that special touch of class.

    Sorry, yeah, I meant the last player to score more than 30 goals in all competitions was Dembele.

    It's actually rarer than I realised. Post-Larsson, it's only happened 5 times out of 18 seasons. Hartson (30), McDonald (31), Commons (32), Griffiths (40), Dembele (32).
    I doubt Rangers have had many players exceed 30 goals in that time frame either. Kris Boyd maybe?

    Aye it's a big thing, it's effectively a goal every other game as we usually play about 60 odd. Hooper managed it as well in 12/13 with 31 goals, a few players that has 29 goal seasons too, no idea on the huns

    Of course. How did I forget Hooper! Still, it's not been a regular occurrence of late. Hopefully Kyogo is going to change that.

    Hooper
    Commons
    Griffiths

    CCV is just so steady and dependable.
