    Still not really been tested, shot stopping wise.

    Must admit I haven't seen much from him on the deck that Gordon couldn't do, to be honest.

    I think Barcelona will be a massive game for him. Could make or break his confidence. 2 games, 2 goals conceded (whether they were his fault or not doesn't matter), with not a whole lot to do. Going up against the best team in the world where he's bound to get peppered, needs to come up big for us and show the players and us fans he can be Celtic's number 1.

    Anyone have a clip of his save from Waghorn right at the end? I missed it.

    Thought his distribution was good. That Foderingham's was class as well, for us..

    He had a really wobbly spell where his kicking was all over the place, but he seemed to sort himself out. Didn't have a lot to do at all apart from Waghorn's shot at the end.

    Not impressed with him in any of these games.

    Looks slow off his line and I definitely don't think he is a better shot stopper than Gordon. Forget his kicking, which tbh, isn't even that impressive.

    Yea... About that.


    Sad thing is he hasn't even been tested by Barca that much. Should've challenged more on the first goal and should've saved that FK. Small amount of opposition chances and a high amount of goals conceded. Not good.

    * being good with the ball at your feet, if you're a goalkeeper the first thing should be being good with your hands when the balls flying at you, utterly unconvinced so far.

    Ever since he was announced he's been my biggest fear for the team, I knew Efe's days were numbered but Rodgers has faith in this guy which I'm starting to think is pretty misplaced.

    Easy target, pick on the guy when he isn't facing the best forward 3 in the history of football.

    I genuinely just don't believe he is an improvement over Gordon, to be honest. Forget this game.

    There's nothing heedless about wanting to see the goalkeeper make saves, regardless if we're against the best 3 ever or not. I haven't seen anything from him in any game he's played in so far. The freekick should've been catching practice.

    If they curl them in from the moon with their weak foot then sure, unfair to slag him. But 2-3 of these goals he's been hopeless on. Hasn't looked convincing at all. And his kicking which he was so highly praised on coming in has looked no better than Gordons.
