    Absolutely shocking tonight.

    I'd say that was his worst performance in a Celtic jersey.

    If he is given a central role, we will see how good he is. Mark my words.

    He is just " alright " at everything - alright at crossing , alright at passing , alright movement , has average pace and average strength . Bang average , have thought it for a while but decided to stay quiet and hope he shows more - tonight i have to say it this is an extremely unexciting footballer. We need better.

    He's not a winger.

    Said months ago how worried I was about essentially having Dundee uniteds front players as our first choice, stick by that.
    We are in bad shape.

    He's not a player on that showing.

    He wasn't the only one though.

    Middle or bench/leave at home. Stokes annoys me, but stokes crossing is better and he at least assists if ur going to put one on the wing it would be him for me or even that injury prone Dutch guy.

    Armstrong doesn't fit into this stupid, rigid system the manager created. Dundee Utd played him as a CM. We should do the very same.

    He can play on the wing no bother at all - Inter at home a shining example.

    He was just * tonight, pure and simple.

    Him and GMS came in and were cementing starting 11s , playing great and contributing largely in every aspect. Something isn't right at Celtic * knows what though.

    Think he's a good footballer, but out of position. Needs some more aggression in his play and a tackle. Too 'nice' of a footballer.

    Inter is not a shining example, it's pretty much the only example. I don't think he's a good winger and I think he's vastly overrated by a lot of our support. He was * tonight.

    Still not a winger and hasn't been given a chance in his best position imo

    He absolutely can not . He always cuts inside AND goes back the way - he has no pace , no trickery and an average cross. He would be best in central central midfield, playing box to box, "water carrying ".

    He absolutely can, Malmo at home another example before he tired massively.

    He is direct, a powerful runner and can feed passes. All when he's at his best, which he hasn't been in a while.
