    8 goals in his last 3 starts domestically, mental stat.

    All of them one touch finishes from no further out than the penalty spot.

    Fox in the box.

    One thing about him I've noticed is how quickly he's gotten wise to the refs here. In his first ten games or so he was getting every single 50/50 given against him but he's become proper clever now with the way he puts himself about.

    Love the big *.

    I must admit I doubted him at first but he's definitely won me over however, I was watching the highlights last night and my wife said that he should smile a bit more when he scores. Hopefully he's keeping that for when he scores against the huns

    A goal every 96 minutes.

    Now has best goals to minute ratio in the squad.

    Will score a barrel load over the next few years. Type of striker we've been missing for good few years

    Giamoukakis in this form or Kyogo is a fantastic striker problem to have.

    This guy has really stepped up when we needed him to.

    Wins with or without Kyogo pre Christmas was shocking. We barely won a game when Kyogo wasn't on the pitch. GG has been brilliant and him and Kyogo allows us to pick and choose when to play either knowing that we're going to get a shift. They should be fresher and less likely to pick up injuries.

    He has 9 in his last 5 domestic matches. Crazy stats.

    He was obviously wanting the actual matchball at the end. Did Joe kick it into the crowd for a laugh?

    Someone might have already mentioned but there's a signed Giorgos Giakoumakis shirt email competition on the Celtic main site, not sure if you can enter without already on the mailing list. Anyway if you get the email, worth a go, just the email clicked automatically enters your chance.

    Let's be honest, if they didn't limit it to one player per team that'd just be the Celtic XI :giggle1:

    His instinct and physicality in the box are a delight to watch, compared to some of the passivity we’ve seen in recent years.

    Like a cross between a Poundland Inzaghi and Chris Wood, or something. :56:

    If he finished out the season in this kind of form he is gonna attract some attention from clubs in the summer. 14/1 currently for top scorer

    Oooooooofffft 14/1 is worth a £10, would even be worth £100 if it was something I could personally afford
