Johnny Kenny

Looks to be coming good this year

 

Think he’s starting most their games as opposed to last year. Could be a decent 3rd choice striker for us from January if we haven’t one in by then

 

Be away on loan again.

 

Same as Tilio, why is he on loan to a league we knew he could perform in before we signed him?

 

Come on, he'll never be good enough as an option..

 

Goal for shamrock against Larne tonight, 1 in 2 ratio for goals this season

 

Fair play to him, more of this, less moany interviews about contact from the club. We will be monitoring everything he does, but when he’s at another club we won’t be talking intervening every week.

Knuckle down and come back after the loan, and the chance might come then.

 

Rodgers spoke about a young guy from Academy being 3rd choice striker so opportunity is there for him if he shows the right attitude

 

Attitude and professionalism, hard work and willing to learn and play that role for the team will get them a better chance at being earmarked for that under BR than maybe more talent but less of the other aspects.

Obviously need ability as well, but the other aspects will get you his attention rather than just talent alone. It’s what Rodgers thrives on when it comes to young players.

 

Scored a second which would've made it 5-1 but was ruled out.

BBC livefeed said he's now got 15 goals this season so good return for him.

 

It was Rocco Vata who going to be 3rd choice

 

I know mate but if it's still something he's looking to do to then then could he an opportunity for Kenny.

He's playing and scoring at a higher level than Vata was last season so mite he worth a chance.

 

It didn’t sound like from his comments during the week that he will be back here. He said he hardly gets any contact from the club and his deal was running out. I think he will be off at the end of the season.

I know he was very young but was meant to be comically bad when at Queen’s Park

 

His contract isnt up till 2027, think he was meaning his deal with Rovers is up soon.
Aye comments don't suggest he will but you never know. Will need to show the right attitude which his comments the other day didn't but if Rodgers is still keen on idea of developing a young striker to be 3rd choice he may get a chance.
Seems to have developed since queens park which you'd expect with age and experience

 

The downside to Kenny is that he is not a homegrown player, which makes him filling the 3rd choice striker role a bit trickier for us.

I'd be all for seeing how he gets on with us at Christmas (I think that's when his loan ends) if not in the summer
