    I think in an ideal world he's not thrown straight into the team. He needs time to settle in.

    Like the look of him. He’s quick, can go past players and tries to make things happen.

    His crossing and shooting have been a bit off so far but that’ll come.

    He put Forrest to shame last night.

    Still a young guy and I'm sure he will be a good player for us but he won't be the answer consistently over the course of a season, yet.

    I see he has that...looks like he's controlling a beach ball trait, the wee guy also makes Mikey Johnstone look like a power lifter.

    That Dudu Duhan certainly earns his money.

    If it wasn’t for the cheating officials he might’ve been getting hailed on here for scoring the winner on his league debut.

    And if Christie had passed we could be saying the same about Kyogo. Small margins this game.

    Hes only 19.

    I really like him so far and he should have had a goal.

    chrisitie would rather seek glory than reward for an assist.
    when was the last time this celtic team all won their 11 v 11 battles - so far this season in 3 competitive league games eddie has contributed 0, you can blame the board etc but their is a duty on players in an individual basis to do the business.

    eddie will never be able to lead the line, he isn't strong, has zero aerial threat, cannot hold players off - he is not built for the league unlike big moussa who is a different kind of striker.

    Ange must be able to adopt and find a formation in which we can compete with the players present at the minute - what happened with playing 2 strikers fs!!

    linked with every tom * and harry embarrassing - this looks like another season which could be over by Jan time and lets be honest it has been like this for the last 24 months when cracks emerged and we didn't even plaster over them.

    total overhaul needed what does out scouting team actually do, who does it consist of, are we looking worldwide for players? the fans do more than the scouts fs.

    we need instant experience player who aren't injury prone fs

    I think his crossing has been excellent.

    Hes put in 4 or 5 good balls in his games so far. 2 in particular at home vs midgetland.

    sad that we expect the new players to be instant hits while players like forrest, Christie, turnbull, eddie all shy away this team lacks leaders, winners, and players prepared to take a broken nose for the team. we cant get nasty, we cant be a nuisance we crumble under any pressure.

    I think I have seen enough to form some sort of opinion, unlike Furuhashi who was being written off by some after getting 10 minutes at Tynecastle the other night.

    Abada looks like he could be a threat. He has pace which will always be a danger, and he does drive at the full back and looks to commit him, which I like. What I would say though, at times it looks like his brain is working faster than his feet. Sort of like he is stumbling his way. That may well improve and it might just be him too eager to impress. It has been a decent start from him though.

    Thought the same, FB kept showing him the inside and he kept going outside. Was only one occasion he cut in and there was acres of space to shoot. Just his shooting let him down. He’ll learn. Still so green.

    Think he will do well for us, not sure if he's a 1st team player right now tbh, looks a tricky player and shows a good attitude.

    They mean because Kyogo is 26 it's him and Forrest that are first choices and Abada is meant to be the backup. Not that Abada is 26.

    In a settled side with proper planning he'd have been a great option off the bench to scare teams, with plenty of time to develop in to a starter. As it is we're asking guys like him to carry us in to Europe. It's unfair really but that's the reality the club has found itself in, entirely by its own doing.

    I don't understand how anyone doesn't rate him..

    If he's raw then I can't wait until his peak..

    He looks deadly anytime he strikes it at goal and always in the right place at the right time. No seen him hit row z yet, clinical as *..

    Won a watch with this boy..
