    Not seen him for years, as will be the case for most on here I’d suspect. What a * state the board have got us into.

    Iv not seen him play tbh. Hey maybe he'll suit scotland. Some players just work at clubs and are * elsewhere. I doubt it, but maybe lady luck with shine down on us. Overall we've still got a decent team, 2 new wingers and jota to return in January. Atleast it'll mean rodgers will actually have to play shin, its * me off he's barely had a sniff. I mean, Look at "oh" now. Same treatment.

    Anyway, should be 9 points ahead end of the game against killy.

    Only if we had given oh a chance he could have been the striker we desperately need. I think we were all too quick to judge him

    I think Yamada will become a great striker for us and now its his time to shine.

    Oh had chances here. Both under Ange and Rodgers. Neither fancied him and it was understandable why.

    I was scathing on Iheanacho last night.

    Partly due to the * of the window and partly due to these kind of signings rarely working here. I am not fond of us going for players with big reputations 5/6/7 years ago but whose career have not hit those heights, guys who were touted to play for the big clubs and went for big fees but it never worked out. It's why I wasn't overly enamoured with the Dolberg/Stengs links etc, it's why I was not happy with the Saracchi signings.

    People were talking about Dolberg ripping it up here, that's what worries me, if the fans are thinking it maybe that's the players mindset too and guys who come to Scotland with big reputations and play for Celtic and Rangers routinely get found out with that attitude. Iheanacho's career the past 4 years looks like a guy who has chucked it. Released by Leicester, poor at Sevilla, flopped at Middlesborough and then released by Sevilla. That does stink of attitude/application issues and it doesn't matter how good you are or how low the quality is in Scotland, at Celtic you need to perform week in week out, you need to have your head on the game and he has the ability but does he have the mindset.

    The only positive aspect I can say is that Rodgers has worked with him before and he did have probably the only big season of his career under Rodgers so if Rodgers can get a tune out of him then it could work out well but I'm fairly certain he'll not do much and be released at the end of his contract.

    He’s * *, simple as, laughing stock in his last loan.

    Lazy player who got a big payday.

    * pointless this deal.

    * the Board!

    Would be an absolute * deal. Would have been better of with Nisbit who went to Aberdeen. He will be unfit, will be barely play and just hinder development of any strikers already here.

    On paper everything anout this screams bombscare and desperation. Obviously was a talented player to some extent and did well under Rodgers. When players career comes off a cliff like this it almost never gets turned around. If BR thinks he's worth a punt then giving ehat else we have I'd be willing to judge him on the field like all other signings.

    We’ve took about £30m in this window but we’re on the bargain basement looking for a free agent to come and play upfront for us. Is Carlton Cole not available? Kazim-Richards?

    If you were trying to sabotage this club you’d find it difficult to exceed what’s been achieved this summer.

    I would normally agree regarding the last part, but * him, he had his chance previously and picked a * championship side instead and he was * pish there.

    Overweight and couldn’t be bothered, 1 goal in 15 as well.

    * him.

    The deadbeat will be on a fortune as well probably. Guarantee we rip up his contract before the end of the season

    Players with reputations come here and do well, just as much as some fail. Same as any other transfer. Every transfer is a gamble, there are no guarantees.

    Saying Dolberg would be a success here isn’t a hot take when we are then being linked with Chelsea’s 8th choice striker and Iheanacho.
