    He has some talent, of that there is no doubt. But I don't think he has the bottle/mentality to make it at a big club like Celtic, a move to a mid table Championship club would suit him. Would be nice if we could bring in another winger to replace him but it's not a major priority.

    He's never a Celtic player for me. Doesn't have the mentality to play for us and doesn't really have the ability either. At his best he's a decent player.

    He also had a 1 vs 1 to put us 1-0 up after a couple of minutes and he shat it and hit it right at the keeper.

    He was still our biggest attacking threat by a mile before getting hooked. It wasn't a performance where he could be accused of hiding, like the one against Sevco.

    At his best, he's got it all, speed, 5 start skillz, can beat a man and deliver. Not to mention score a few himself. That being said, he's a * shitebag. Far too inconsistent and feart.

    That's a bit harsh. On what grounds should we do that?

    Edit: "* *"???

    Where the * did that come from :smiley-laughing002:? He's not had a game because he's been injured. Rodgers, I'm sure will give him a look when he's fully fit. As for rejecting the loan move, does he really seem like the type to collect a wage and say * it? Terminating his contract is laughable. Still might have something to offer and if not we could still grab a fee for him.

    We can't just terminate somebody's contract because they aren't in our plans and they don't want to leave.

    They'd need to commit an act of gross misconduct, such as a racist comment or assaulting another player before we can just release them without paying them.

    It's why some clubs will send players to play with the reserves, it's a way of bullying them out the club, it's nasty to its core. GMS has every right to see out the contract he was offered whether he is in Brendan's plans or not.

    No in my opinion he'll down to an English League One team eventually. Peterborough, Sheffield United, even a Millwall. We'd grab a nominal fee from them.

    You need to calm the * down.

    He's just back from injury and wants to prove himself under a new manager. What the * is wrong with that? I'd rather we kept for now anyway.
