    I stand by this, especially given his immense work rate which will eventually see him knock a few goals and assists in.

    Some of the criticism being libelled against him is very harsh. Yes he is experiencing a dip in form, but he is definitely not a dud.

    He lacks technique and composure at times, but in contrast he did show last season at times what he is capable of and kept Abada out the team for long spells.

    He laid on assists and found himself in the right position to score and achieved a decent return, better than many signings we have made in the past in that position. His work rate and intensity was a great weapon for us in breaking down teams and wearing teams down in the latter stages of games.

    He undoubtably contributed to last seasons success.

    Personally I think we absolutely robbed the team we got him from think it was less that 2mill we paid
    .. he is a top player unreal engine fair enough he isn't as technically as some players but if he was he wouldn't be at Celtic

    He serves no purpose this season. Eye-bleedlingly bad footballer at times.

    I'd genuinely rather have Forrest over him at him at the moment.

    Needs dropping to the bench. Let other players get a start in those positions and have him come on and run a tired opposition down.

    Really liked him last season but he’s been a man down whenever he’s played this season.

    Seriously starting to worry about fact manager continues to play him. You're absolutely right too, he is getting worse with every performance.

    Offers absolutely nothing in a n attacking sense

    I was his biggest fan but * sick to death of watching this guy try to control a ball, he's like the horse with the Swiss ball. A genuine disgrace his lack of technical ability.

    We were told of his blistering pace, but even that is over exaggerated, plenty keep up with or even beat him.

    Get him on the bench until he can do the * basics. Pass. Control the ball. Shoot.

    You always get the work rate, but he lacks the technical ability.

    It does make you wonder what they do in training, it certainly is not working on their finishing in front of goal.

    Got in Abadas way trying that overhead kick when Abada had an easier chance.
