    Does he ever pass when he gets the ball, it seems he just wants to shoot from anywhere.

    Again thank * for Peter Lawell or we could have ended up with another expensive dud!!! Instead we just send him back after his LOAN!!! Well done Celtic great move to get him on loan now maybe some of the doubters will see why we have so many on loan, just saved a couple of million quid.

    Not a chance of this move being made permanent if he doesn't improve vastly.

    I quite like him, hopefully he grows in confidence and starts so how more of what he can do, he did the defensive work well tonight and was always sprinting up the pitch the minute gordon had the ball so there are positives to be had.

    We were looking to sign this guy permanently before we signed derk.

    This could be a good example of the transfer policy to bring in on a loan to buy deal.

    I've not give up on him yet, there must be a player in there somewhere.

    Was absolutely brilliant in covering for Ambrose and working back, going forward simply not good enough. Put his shift in tonight though, covered excellently.

    I now can't believe there was a huge hype surrounding this guy when was he playing in Poland. He's like a one trick pony going forward, cut in and shot.

    A greedy player who'd much rather shoot than pass, 9/10 times a shot off target or down the keepers throat.

    I didn't think he was as bad as people are saying on this, he's definitely a greedy * though and should look to pass instead of shooting the whole time though.

    He worked hard last night i'll give him that. Tracked back well.
    But he cannot..... CANNOT find a * pass/cross.
    Head down.... run.... SHOOT!!

    That's it. That's his game.

    Another bullet dodged by using the loan system I think. On showings so far not good enough.

    Worked hard but in all honesty a poor player.

    No wonder Villa got rid. The baffling question is how Paul Lambert, John Park, Neil Lennon and Ronny Deila all seen enough to be interested in him/signed him.

    Don't rate him in the slightest, there was one where he got away from 2 players going right round the.houses and still shot, greed at it's worst..

    I think people are jumping to conclusions with him too soon. I remember before he even played people were mocking him on here for shooting too much and every game he plays people say the same "greedy" etc

    He has only hit 6 shots for us in total in 5 games. Its not that bad.

    Although 4 were last nigh and about 4 of the shots have been from long distances.

    The shots havent been that bad though, not like he's been ballooning them miles wide they have been going on target/not far wide.

    McGregor and Commons are much worse for shooting and the shots not even going near the goal.

    He's quick and can beat a man, invaluable in the modern game.

    I think everyone that has signed him have all known he has flaws though and they all obviously thought they could cure them.

    It's alright saying that but i can't even remember him making a pass last night, or other games for that matter..

    His shots are woeful, at.least.commons and Mcgregor score some..
    In Europe all that does when he shoots from anywhere is waste.our momentum and put us back on the back foot..

    I can only go on what I've seen..
