    Just your man in this thread saying Palma, Kuhn and Yang can all go in the Summer. Mental.

    That's not his game though.

    If we want him to hit the byline then Rodgers needs to instruct him on that. He's very much in the paddy Roberts mould of inverted winger.

    The part about him not taking his man on is just not true mate cmon. First game or so maybe, but he's been steadily improving since and continually makes defenders back off.

    I like him.

    Given Maeda is out hopefully he is fully up to being able to start next weekend. That would be a real boost and give us an extra genuine goal threat as well.

    Would start him v Dundee, must have a bit to prove and he's shown he has quality. Time for him to come back in a show what he can do.

    I thought we'd have started him last game, can't really be that fit yet as we made subs in both these last 2 games but only brought him on was it after 70 and then about 85.

    Gave him what could only have been 25 minutes over 2 games when Yang was shocking and could have been off at HT in the two of them. Makes you think he's not seen as being sharp enough to have played even a whole half although he did end up on for extra time.

    Be about 2 and a half month really, 17th of February since he started a game and since then has only been on the park 70 minutes in 7 weeks.

    Came on 84th minute V Motherwell, 75th minute V Dundee, 71st minute V St Mirren then 86th V Aberdeen although the 30 minutes of extra time as well.

    I always feels like he manages the squad terribly and is lucky.

    Like the first half of the season, he barely gave Oh a game at all even as a sub yet if Kyogo got injured he'd be relying on him to play after basically snubbing him completely like he's not even part of his thinking. Same even with Ralston.

    Totally different from Ange, where the whole squad seemed to be managed well and everyone got a game every other game and decent run outs as well even guys like Bernabei and whoever he'd bring on for 30 minutes every few games.

    Rodgers works like he has a settled team and if you aren't in it then you won't get a game unless guys get injured. Doesn't really keep guys involved just to rest the starting players every now and again or it's like he doesn't give guys a chance just because he's written them off, could even say that of Bernardo and Turnbull how he kept playing Bernardo in Europe then Turnbull in the League like he'd made up his mind Turnbull couldn't play in Europe and Bernardo would be no use in the League, same of Nawrocki and Lagerbielke who haven't even played that bad of looked that bad but are mostly just snubbed just because.

    Aye I'm thinking Rodgers has went off him. He tends to like quick wingers and as much as I like Palma, he isn't that type.

    I'd be surprised if he starts at Dens

    Was a bit surprised he didn't start last weekend. But maybe it was felt he wasn't fit enough to start yet. Assuming he is fully fit now hopefully he starts on Sunday and puts in a big performance.

    He also does hit the touchline as well though, usually at the point the fullback is desperately trying to defend him cutting in after he’s done it a couple times and they’re worried, then he goes on the outside. Usually into the box getting his body infront, and cutting back it back towards the penalty spot. If there’s nobody there, he cuts back to the left and goes for the other winger coming into the backpost.

    Different sorta players and not a comparison except in this very specific thing, but it reminds me of Naka the one time out of 10 he’d go onto his right, when the fullback expects him to be on his left too much and leaves the space. Funny enough, Palma does the same on the other wing.

    Surprised at a shout for no end product for Kuhn though, he’s not the best finisher and that’s what he’s to work on definitely but his end product creating chances is * quality. And he did score last week as well, open goal or no, he was in the position to be there and very calmly made sure of the finish. I’ve seen games where better players get overexcited and * that, and then it’s one of they games - Paddy Roberts semi final against 2nd tier Huns prime example

    Doesn’t have the mentality to play for us. Also is no team player whatsoever.

    Played a big part in us conceding two goals in the last two games.

    Worth saying as well that he’s scored 1 more league goal than James Forrest this season.

    Rotten.

    he may as well put another instagram post up. He's been rotten recently. Were going into next season looking like we need another 7 or 8 players. Scary thought given our recruitment history:56:

    Aye exactly, every time he cuts in he is looking for the shot, then cuts in again, looks for a shot...then cuts in again everyone has already made thier run and is now marked but he passes it anyway .

    Frustrating player. Does he need more minutes to get back to where he was? Maybe, his decision making is shocking though it’s like the praise he got at the start went to his head and he’s constantly trying to play for his own highlight reel….. would probably have the 3 other left wingers ahead of him now currently. Maeda, forrest then even Yang (just as bad) to come off the bench before him

    Show pony.. it's no coincidence that his best form coincided with champion league exposure.... Not a Celtic player any day of the week...

    Rodgers clearly doesn't fancy him.

    Another signing we panicked with. Shows flashes of what he can do but as with Yang and Khun, for Celtic flashes is not good enough.
