    He’s only 21, he has a lot of potential just needs the game time to continue to develop. A loan would do him a world of good.

    I don't see it with Yang to be honest.

    I don't see it from him either. Flicks and tricks, but lacks real drive and strength.

    Korean Mickey Johnston maybe without the injuries just can’t see him making it here.

    I'd definitely persevere with him..I think he'll come good..he's a good size physically and looks decent technically .

    I like him. He's not the finished article but he definitely isn't afraid to take on his man instead of passing it back.

    Loan candidate in the summer, got time to develop. Kuhn, Palma, Maeda and a 'quality' one in the summer.

    Sell Abada, loan Yang, sell Tilio, release Forrest, sell Johnston.

    Of all our wingers, he's the one that intrigues me the most. Not sure whether this is a compliment or an indication that we need better wingers.

    When he came on today you could tell he wanted to impress. That run he went on is what we've all hoped he'd be capable of. The end product will come with time.

    I wasn't keen at first but I feel he should be given time. Time away with the national team would've done his confidence a world of good too.

    Will be the best winger we've had since Jota this time next year. Guaranteed.

    I think he's looked very good whenever he's come off the bench.

    Completely contrasted when he starts.

    Also looks far better on the left than the right. He does seem a different option coming on against tiring defenders, as he is very good at taking men on and has decent physicality but needs to work on the end product.

    Apart from sheep at home, his best game in a Celtic strip!

    I feel like he has talent but there is so much missing from his game.

    I think if we’re going to sign players as raw as this (especially so many) we need more coaches. There should be a winger specialist assigned just to work with him and analyse every game.

    Struggling to understand how anyone can criticise the lad after his cameo at the weekend.

    Just back from Asia Cup, not played a lot of football and showed more promise than Kuhn, Abada and Maeda when it comes to driving at defenders and going past them.

    He’s exciting and should be the exact type of player that Rodgers can develop and improve.

    Agree with all of this. Showing lots of promise for an inexperienced 21 year old. He needs to improve his end product but no reason why that can't happen and hopefully quite quickly.

    Never up to the standard we need. Would like to be proven wrong but in this case I don’t think that’ll happen. Good luck to him though.

    Also the fact he was willing to drive and attack with the ball was refreshing and what's been missing for a few weeks now

    He's a 21-year-old South Korea international who moved to Europe a few months ago from across the globe. A bit too early to write him off, don't you think?

    Like I said, I hope he proves me wrong.
