    Maloney is currently better, due to experience and steadiness.

    To hard lol, i went with maloney in the end, and only because he has an end product, although McGeady will get there aswel

    With almost 3 years between them, the younger Aiden is quicker and more skillful on the ball, he's constantly learning and there can be no doubters after last season.

    This is a tough one, I'll need to think about this a bit more. :31:

    Would like to ask though, anybody think that McGeady would benefit from a loan spell to the Premiership the same way Shaun has from his time at Villa?

    Ok, I voted McGeady in the end - as I think Shaun is somewhere near his full potential (and is possibly slightly better at the moment), but I think Aiden could become a true great and he possesses skills on the ball that are one in a million.

    It's very close though as they are both talented in different ways, both very creative and dangerous 'flair' players. :50:

    But McGeady edges it. I've answered this in the same way that I would if you asked me who is better, Darth Vader or the Emperor. I would answer Vader as he had the potential and natural ability to be the very greatest, but wasn't as powerful as the Emperor as he hadn't reached his potential.

    Aiden, don't be Anakin son - stay with the light side and realise your true potential and you will go down in history as one of the best ever Celts. :50:

    I'm not saying that it's beyond Shaun, but Aiden is more likely to achieve this status. :shamrock:

    Its a close one but Id have to say mcgeady. Hes strong with both feet and has great flair.

    Good to see wee maloney back though.. hes a class act aswell.

    It is McGeady for me more skillful and creative player in my opinion.

    I think that mainly due to a more consistent end product and through having more experience, Maloney is a better player but McGeady is more naturally talented technique wise.

    Maloney is the better player due to the fact he passes more often
