    I liked him when he was with us. But this guy has had more clubs then a golfer has clubs in his bag.

    Not so sure, he did struggle for first 4 months for fitness but once he was scoring he had 12 goals in 12 starts and 12 of his first 13 goals were first touch finishes. Type of poacher that we need, Kyogo missed plenty sitters as well.

    Should have took him back and got Idah to *. Tell him he'd be number one striker, he'd score a * load in this team.
    Said recently he'd love love love to go back to Celtic, but thinks that ship has sailed

    First season Kyogo and GG both injured half the season at separate times got 20 goals each. Ange’s 2nd season GG left in January because even if he deserved a place, Kyogo was his man. And he did deserve the place. Kyogo was struggling, CL especially, GG was forced to start one CL game and scored and it didn’t matter.

    And the wildest thing is, I’d usually label that bad management but that backing Ange with Kyogo and him making clear that’s his man, Kyogo kicked on and had an unreal season from then on.

    Was harsh on GG though.

    Aye fully agree mate, don’t blame GG for moving and by looks of it he doesn’t like settling at clubs for too long anyway. In the end we got Kyogo firing on all cylinders scoring some massive goals for us.
