    9 times out of 10 his skillet doesn't suit us.
    His 2 biggest assets are his pressing and running in behind. We have 80% possession in most games and play against teams with 10 men camped within 30 yards of their own goal.
    How many times has he been taken off at half time when we've been struggling to break teams down. If Reo hadn't went off injured and forced us to use a sub he would of likely have been off at half time on Saturday and rightly so bcoz he offered absolutely nothing. But Ange probably didn't want to limit the number of subs he was able to bring on in 2nd half bcoz we know how big a game changer that so often is

    I would like Joe to hang about and maybe assist Stephen Woods with coaching the keepers.

    I also think he should stick around for his leadership qualities. He clearly has an affection for the club and the fans. You can’t deny he’s 100% invested in Celtic. Suffice it to say he took a huge drop in wages to join us.

    I had a huge admiration for Forster but he wouldn’t have taken the massive pay cut that Joe did.

    Agree with all of that but also R.E the wage cut…I’m sure Joe has earnt maybe 10 times the money big frase has earnt over his career with the teams he’s played for and city especially at their original heights of the money and him being England no. 1. So I reckon along with the last few moves not working for hart, the wage cut wasn’t a huge deal to him

    My unpopular opinion is that singing about the pope in the first place is a complete rid neck.

    I hate when we bring religion into our songs - Papa Francisco, * bless the pope or soon there'll be no protestants at all. We have links with Ireland and I don't have a problem with IRA songs etc as they're political not religious. The religious stuff would put non-catholics off supporting us and it's bordering on sectarian and puts us on a par with the huns.
    That's my unpopular opinion.

    Hatate, Carter-Vickers and McGregor are more important than Jota in my opinion.

    A player with less blistering pace than Maeda would have been unable to take advantage of the poor pass from Morelos.

    This just shows the fickle nature of fans. Hatate is in the best form just now, but Jota is a better footballer overall.

    The Papa Francesco song was brilliant in Rome.

    I’m not religious in the slightest but I fail to see why anyone would be offended by it or have a massive issue with it. Some people seriously need to lighten up.

    Hatate has been superb since signing. It’s not like he is only now coming onto a game. It’s not fickle at all to say he is more important than Jota. If you take Hatate out our team, due to who we have to replace him, we lose quite a bit. If you take Jota out, we have Haksabanovic to come in, and we don’t lose lots if any with that.

    Not offended, not really an issue, just embarrassed.

    Anyway, * the Pope.

    If one of our midfielders passed the ball to Maeda 40 yards from goal who burst past two players and tucked it away, would you say it was more down to the pass from our midfielder or more down to Maeda?

    By the looks of it, I'll be in the minority thinking 10m would be good money for Abada. I like him and his work rate on the park is great, but I personally don't see him reaching a level of greatness. I get that he's young but he makes the wrong decision an awful lot of the time, and he's often anonymous when he starts. Maybe harsh because of his age but just my opinion, and don't expect anyone's breaking the bank for him.
