    Aye, not slightly adapting to Kyogo’s strengths is a huge case of mismanagement by Rodgers. It’s infuriating.

    We don’t even play to Kyogo’s strengths so little * chance of playing to Idah or Oh’s. Just scunnered with it all.

    Not the guy's fault, but take away the 2 penalties and Oh looks the better finisher from what he's done for us. The guy's not exactly Bellamy or Keane. The loan with no option to buy looked a debatable decision at the time.

    Hope he proves me wrong, but he's missed good chances in at least 3 games.

    Same. A hard worker and will put in a shift but never a goalscorer and never Celtic quality. Put it like this- Mikey Johnston has been one of the stand out players with Ireland the last year or so. Idah wouldn't even get close.

    A pest for defenders who works hard with a nice touch and is strong with good link up but doesn't seem to be prolific.
    Honest lad and decent enough but ultimately not good enough at what we need him to do which is disappointing. Could have just been giving these starts to Oh tbh.

    He's not a bad player just not what we needed. Absolute panic signing and shows the direction our board want to take.

    Couldn’t agree more and, had it been up to me, I’d have kept Mikey tbh.

    Have been away in Amsterdam since last week so haven’t had to chance to really comment on here.

    This guy is rank. Absolute rank. I agree a hard worker. But does absolutely nothing. I honestly think he was signed just to score any penalties we may get.

    Embarrassing.

    Let’s face it we have got we all expected with this guy…a sub standard player and most certainly not a striker who can bang in goals. We desperately needed an injection of quality to put our Title defence back on the rails, instead we have been served this up this guy and Kuhn who is proving to be just as bad if not worse. This is absolutely disgusting and the Celtic board needs gutted from top to bottom, starting with Lawell. Just absolutely sickened by what is happening to the club we all love.

    Any Irish football fan wont be surprised by his displays.He has been like this everywhere he goes.

    He looks like he might be a bit decent but he turns out to be at best average.
    I still think he could develope into something decent while hes with us but the way things are with Rodgers in charge its a long shot.

    Right , "everywhere he goes" implies that this has happened countless times. He signed for Norwich as a youngster, and this is his first loan I believe

    Regardless, his tally for Norwich and Ireland probably tells us all we need to know.

    His assessment is fairly bang on whether he was with Norwich, Ireland or now Celtic.. has all the attributes but just doesn't do the business when it comes to being a consistent goal threat.

    Your rite about the loan,whati was trying to say was very time he gets the opertunity he doesnt seem to be able to produce the goods.
    We have seen at all levels of iIrish football from youth up to senior,ye hes had a few good patches bur he just doesnt seem to be able to get to that top level.Same with Norwich looked a good prospect but couldnd go the next level and now were seeing the same at Celtic.

    look im not knocking him, as an Irishman/Celtic fan i really hope he kicks on and goes on a scoring spree but he a frustrating player to watch.

    I know it's different times etc, but how depressing is it that we used to have Larsson, Sutton and Hartson, and now we have this guy playing number 9.....?
