    He's been a ball retention tidy player. I said a while ago i didnt know if he could add to his game but since his classy goal at hampden to shooting rather than squaring to griffiths. Another tidy goal and todays effort it seems like he wants to take on the responsibility or is being encouraged to.

    With an end product each week now he will believe even more in his ability.

    The boys coming on leaps and bounds this season, to the point where it would actually sadden me a little to see this 'UCL standard playmaker' limit his game time.

    Never hides, never stops running and never stops trying to create and score. It's been that way since his early Euro qualifying games, he's now just putting it all together.

    His movement off the ball is second-to-none in the squad, so sharp in small spaces and in and around the box. Shame the finishing has let him down on a few occasions.

    Another fine product of our youth system, great to see!

    Just seen the goal :notworthy the guy can be incredible, I mean really world class when he's in the mood it's unreal. Wish he could be consistent cause he's a pure Tim and loves the team, brilliant devotion, I love Ronny for bringing him back too :83:

    Wolf, stfu.

    There was a touch of Messi about his goal yesterday.

    Absolutely brilliant, and what a turnaround from this young fella this season!!!!

    I've been fairly critical of McGregor in the past but got to hand it to him he has really came on to a game.

    Long may it continue.

    The run, his body shape, the composure and the placement of the finish were about as Messiesque as you'll see anywhere. But regardless any comparison with Leo is futile.

    McGregor has a real shot of making himself a Celtic and Scotland regular at the rate he's progressing just now.

    How anyone can dislike him in this form is incredible. He is a lovely footballer.

    Love the wee man, have since he came through.

    Really showing what he can do now Brendans found his perfect role. Always in space wanting the ball, can be greedy but I reckon Brendan instructs him to commit players from the midfield with his runs.

    Absolutely delighted for him and hope he's here for years to come.

    Notts county loan is really reaping benefits now. Remember he was their main man at 19 and done very well with them.

    My midfield 3 at the minute is Brown Armstrong and McGregor,imagine saying that at the start of the season.Callum is a really clever player always finds space and has a goal in him.

    Callum's looking more and more tidy for each match he plays. The importance of good home grown players cannot be stressed enough in European club football.
