    Completely different type of football to what he’s used to with the Chelsea youngsters.
    Clearly a talented player but I have my doubts about how suited he is to the scottish game.
    Early days and hopefully he can adapt.

    We need better defensive players for European football, not luxury players like him.
    He would have made absolutely no difference against PSG or Bayern this season.

    He didn’t say he wasn’t getting involved, he said he was watching the ball too much rather than watching the players around him as well. Saying he was too fixated on the ball and wasn’t aware of where his teammates were. Said him and Dembele were going for the same ball a lot. The boy just wants the ball.

    Michael Stewart is a * anyway.

    We need a better level of technical player.

    Left wing, push Sinclair in if we need to accommodate them both..Masunda is class but won't hack it in the centre at the moment, once to give back Sinclair will need dropped and give Masunda a run on left wing.

    Obviously, I wish Charly all the best, and hope he will be a success both for us and for himself, but I think we are over egging the hype a bit with this guy, certainly on facebook , he appears to have already become the new poster boy for Celtic, (Looking forward to a week of James Forest receiving the same star treatment) so far! he has showed one or two nice touches playing, but nothing solid yet that would venerate him to the godly status already being afforded to him

    And we need our first team not to be decimated with injuries as it has all season

    He was brought into help us through qualifiers next summer. His little bit quality should help us qualify for champions league again and 20 million winfall.

    Exactly wot i hate about social media ,tbh the guy is hardly ready for 1st team but im hoping he can learn to stand quickly ,he has to be able to work hard and change a game ,its early days ,people are saying roberts took a while but im sure he hit the ground running and had us onside straight away ,i wpuld say roberts was ready for 1st team and proved it ,time will tell ,will br risk him against zenit ?who knows .

    poor wee guy probably had a sharp intake of breath when he saw the challenges on dembele by the keeper , lustig ,tackle 50 50 but the follow through was horriffic and just what that cant was thinking when he clattered ntatcham from behind .... and all waved on by the referee. get used to it son you will be up pretty soon id imagine .

    Couldn’t disagree more with that, he’s an excellent pundit, very fair.

    He’s come out with some ridiculous statements during games.

    Not many pundits I like to be fair.

    Fav Celtic Player:
    Mohamed Bangura.
    He hasn't had an impact in both games but it's very early in his Celtic career. Doubt he'll be used to teams putting everybody behind the ball when we're in possession and multiple players chasing him down like their lives depended on it, but that's what he'll have to adapt to because that's what Scottish football is like for a technical, flair player playing for Celtic.

    I had no idea if he'd be any good or not before we signed him as I had never seen him play but he seems to be a very highly rated youngster and everybody seemed happy that we'd signed him. Just need to wait and see I suppose, but we as a team aren't playing particularly well or fluent at the moment so that won't help him. We're still winning games and playing well in patches but I'm sure BR won't be particularly happy with our performances.

    But, he's a young lad so I think inconsistency is to be expected and he can look to what Roberts came in and done last season as an example for him as it's a similar situation, although we were in full flow last season so I suppose it was easier for Roberts.

    Absolutely love him and he loved Celtic.

    We are crying out for a type of player like him yet Rodgers seems to wants more wide players.

    I hope he recognises this for the summer and gets someone in.
