    Not writing him off yet, but looks nowhere near ready at the moment..

    He's shown in very small spells he has something, but looks miles off it just now..

    Don't really think he can play on the right. Probably best option is coming on to the left when Palma needs a rest.

    Think that'll be his last start for a long time now. Didn't think palma was that great today either mind you.

    Need to give guys like him time, he has shown in bits he has something in him but it’s unreliable at the moment

    Didn’t even look like a footballer today to put it bluntly

    He has looked both excellent and terrible. Needs benched for MJ

    Thing is, he’s talented. We’ve seen it in flashes, especially at home to Aberdeen. He’s just the definition of raw. He’s wholly inexperienced and tactically naive.

    Both those things can be worked on/obtained over time but we’re just seeing that in a first team Celtic strip when it should be at a lower level. His signing isn’t the issue, he has potential, it’s the fact he’s being utilised consistently and in huge games which within the current context of the squad situation is explainable.

    100%, he's been thrown in at the deep end because of injuries to Maeda and Abada, when really at this point if everybody was fit he should be sharing sub appearances with MJ/Vata/Tilio while he gets settled in and we see who can make the step up and develop over time.

    He's definitly shown enough in flashes that there's ability there, far too early for all the talk of binning him asap. That kind of talk always happens though I guess, some folk just can't help jumping the gun, calling for GG to be sold at this same stage of his first season, or labelling Starfelt a bombscare, it's daft to judge so early.

    He's had 18 appearances tbf. That's a reasonable amount of performances to have an opinion on a player.

    That says it all new signing needs to make way for Mikey Johnson it shows our transfer window was shocking in the summer .

    Too many apperances too early, he's barely had a chance to settle in here before being thrown in at the highest level, that was my point. He was always signed as a prospect, not expected to instantly improve our starting 11.

    I take your points but in those 18 appearances I'm not really seeing the potential other people are. Hopefully I'm wrong and he turns out to be good enough.

    100% this.
    Will he ever be good enough, time will tell but he’s playing far more than expected due to circumstances. However that said, he is so naive for a wide player. No matter where he’s come from, offside is offside. He’s standing miles offside asking for the ball.

    How has he been thrown in at the deep end?

    He signed for the club to play football. If he isn't ready to step up and show his stuff, then he hasn't got the mentality.

    Post-speaking of course.

    How has he not been thrown in at the deep end? When he signed did you expect him to start right away? If not for injuries he wouldn't be, he's a project.

    He’s a prospect who’s been called upon in an injury flurry.

    Let him develop before writing him off.

    A Prospect? A prospect for what? Yesterday he couldn't do the basics like stay onside, trap a ball and pass a ball, something you learn at schoolboy level. Is this the level of prospect we are signing? He honestly looks likes he won a raffle to play wIth us.

    As has been pointed out his stats looked way off what is requured to play here and nothing he's done since joining has indicated different. Raw is just a way of saying not very good and hes extremely Raw.

    Again he just highlights what an absolute shambles our recruitment was this summer. If our signing policy hasn't failed the people in charge of it certainly have.
