    We've missed Hatate's energy badly. I like Bernardo, but he could improve his finishing a bit.

    Genuinely thought after the first game of the season he was going to really kick on and have an Armstrong like season in terms of his numbers however it just hasn’t really happened for him.

    As said above the embarrassment of the covid season he was one of the few who stood up and produced something and he was a massive player for Ange when he first came in. Injuries and a lack of mobility were his undoing in the end.

    Wish him the best though, always liked him and hope he has a good career down there.

    David Turnbull isn't sure if his Celtic career fizzled out due to "other things" after a tough final six months at Parkhead.

    The former Motherwell midfielder left for Cardiff City on deadline day, sealing a £2million switch to South Wales with just six months remaining on his Hoops contract. Turnbull found himself out of favour under Brendan Rodgers after initially appearing to play his way back into first team contention following a drop down the pecking order under predecessor Ange Postecoglou.

    Turnbull admits he found it hard not being involved, but insists he has nothing but good memories from his time as a Celtic player. It almost never happened after the move initially fell through when Turnbull ruptured cruciate ligaments at Fir Park. But the Premiership champions were prepared to wait, and snapped him for £3.5million upon his return to fitness. But it's now time for a new chapter in the English Championship.

    "I think it was the right time for me [to move on]. I had a great time at Celtic, a great three and a half years, and I loved every minute of it," he said. "But maybe the last six months to a year hasn't been the way I wanted it. To come to a team like Cardiff is a great move for myself.

    "It's about trying to replicate some things I have done before and putting my own style on to the team. At the start of the season I was playing games and after that fell away a wee bit. Sometimes in football that happens.

    "Whether it is down to other things I am not sure, but I leave Celtic happy with a lot of my time there and it's time to come on to new things now."

    Good for him. I must admit I watched the game and didn't notice that.
