    I will be gutted if we lose him. Sure he is unpolished but has great raw talent. He will be great for us long term if we get him

    Did he not get told to calm down his celebrations after Dundee? Not really scored after that too much so can't remember if they were all more reserved.

    Don't care what anyone says, we will be a poorer side moving forward without him.

    I think he's a bit misunderstood by Celtic fans. He's an emotional guy as the vast majority of the best players are.

    Guidetti is in a different league to Scepovic.

    At his best he's actually in a different league to every other striker we have.

    I think we should sign him, he seems to have a connection with the fans and even though he hasn't been on form like he was earlier in the season we all know what he can do when he's firing on all cylinders. I think if he has a good pre-season and gets properly fit and ready for next season then i think we might see the real John.

    Ultimately we will have no choice in where he goes, I detest loan moves.

    I really don't think he's worth the hassle, could become divisive in the dressing room. Has shown limited desire and it's all about him.

    And he's a *. (With talent)

    Can't see what others see in Guidetti.
    Credit for a good goal today, but to me he seems seconds too slow in his reactions.
    Scepovic movement looked way better when he came on, but the game was over at half-time, so the second half didn't tell us much.

    I thought he was average today and that's being kind. Griffiths gives us so much more. Compare their pressing of the goalkeeper - Guidetti's slow and there's no effort from him at all. He's not good enough to be a passenger for long periods of the game.

    His form has went off ever since we attempted to tie him down permanently, I'd say. As soon as news of us agreeing a deal with City came out in the press, his performances started deteriorating and the dry-spell set in. Maybe the pressure got to him?

    Time will tell. He's a good player to have, but I've doubted he'd be a permanent fixture for many months now, so I'm not really bothered either way.

    I think he's already moved on from Celtic in his head.

    If he's capable of rattling in a 20 yard left footer into the top of the net when his head's elsewhere he's even better than I thought.

    I thought he was excellent in the first half, his link up play is a class above Griffiths, Griffiths offers more pressuring of opponents but the ball sticks with Guidetti.

    Quite a few back to wanting him to stay now then..

    I'd still take him. I'm not as passionate in my defence of him as I was before but, he still has potential if he can sort it out. As I have said continually as well there are few strikers out there within our reach who I believe we could get who have as much potential as him and the ability to score when fully firing.
