    Outstanding striker, great worth ethic, attitude first touch and eye for a goal.
    Gutted to lose someone of Adams fantastic ability and potential.
    Swansea getting an absolute bargain.

    (just in case Swansea board reads the forum:fear:)

    Tbh we already have his replacement in shin as a backup striker.

    We need a proven quality scorer now to lead the line.

    Idah no doubt done his best and maybe has crumbled with the pressure on his shoulders but its not like hes a bad player..he has just not excelled at much.

    like a lot of the dross we have, we bought them so no hard feelings but good riddance.

    He was basically Rodgers' Celtic Benteke wasn't he?

    Taylor gone. Now Idah. The question now is who is gonna be the new scapegoat for that section of our support who like to take their frustration and disappointment out on a particular player they take a dislike to? I'm thinking Tony Ralston atm but if Liam Scales form dips again....oooof. Be carnage.

    Idah, meanwhile, is set to hold talks with Swansea today over a permanent switch just a year after joining Celtic from Norwich City.

    The Hoops are expected to get a flat fee in excess of £6m for Idah - with a host of add-ons on top.

    All the best adam! Thanks for the cup final goal and the goals in 2024 when you fired some big strikes. Loss overall of £1.5m but getting the goal involvement vs YB covers that

    Good luck to him. He was always going to be a victim of his fee. Not his fault the club overpaid massively.

    This. Similar to Engels but that is the fault of the board, dicking around and leaving business until the end of the window.

    That was fast. I have no ill will towards him, and feel a bit sad it didn't work out for him here.

    Don't think it was anything to do with pressure or price tag, from what I've heard and the rumours Adam just wasn't professional enough. Another player that thought he'd stroll it up here with little effort.

    No ill feelings and scored some very important goals in fairness.. Good luck
