    We need another no10 regardless.

    I'm not going to go over the top in criticising McGregor because it is clear he isn't comfy in that position, for me. Much better in a central 3 or 2 (at home only I think in the latter's case) dictating the tempo and bursting forward on the occasion.

    He's too indecisive and doesn't have the guile of a Rogic. Much like Armstrong. Neither are 10's, both are standard centre mids/B2B.

    Rogic has been pish this season too.. everyone saying we miss him and Paddy but both have been very disappointing before their respective injuries.

    He is not being utilised properly and our style of play is not suiting his game. Calum is brilliant at spraying passes and finding intricate passes around the opposition box. We're not seeing much of this play from the whole squad. This is leaving him on the periphery and looking like an empty shirt in some games.

    Weirdly enough, having the more creative role in the number 10 has * the creativity in his game. He’ll pick up positions and play tidily but he’ll not do the off the cuff moments that can do when he is in full flow.

    Funny thing with football. At any given time there will be one or two players in the Celtic team who I just don't fancy and it * me off when they regularly get picked. My current two are Dedryck Boyata and Callum McGregor. Boyata needs to get to *. McGregor could stay as a squad player but nothing more than that.

    What does my head in a bit is he's one of our most inventive players but when we have a poor game he gets loads of hassle.
    If he's playing with our first team he really gets a buzz in him and raises his level. Must've been strange for a creative midfielder seeing the 3rd choice striker on the team sheet when your wavelength is on a higher level.

    Needs dropping because hes offering nothing, there is clearly a player there but I just don't think hes good enough to start week in week out, hes either brilliant or * pish and for the last 2 months its been pish.

    Don't see it with him. One good game every 5 or so, and the games he doesn't play well he offers absolutely nothing.

    Needs dropped. Could kinda see Rodgers point trying to play him through a bad spell but he's just getting worse with each passing match.

    I'm sure he loves Celtic too but the rest of his song is pretty inaccurate

    Rotten again, he’s definitely coasting because of the injuries to Rogic and Armstrong. Thought when Eboue was coming on it’d be McGregor coming off, no been at the races for weeks

    never takes the ball on the turn and move towards their defence always laying the ball off back to goal - the difference between in form logic and him in the hole is night and day

    There's just times when some players need a wee spell on the bench/stand CM's was probably 4 or 5 games ago. Time for eboue to get his chance.

    Hasn't done much for about 8 games or so now. Once again, he's in a position where you won't get the best out of him.

    Need a couple new players up that end of the park. Desperately.
