    I'm genuinely excited about this boy everytime I see him..

    Was terrific earlier. That nutmeg on the boy where he almost got away from him with this back drag was cheeky as *..

    Aye didn’t look out of place at all.

    Full of confidence and the flair kinda flowed naturally without much effort. Great prospect.

    Not 1 bit mate..

    If you ever watched him during the next gen game's, he was an absolute standout. I'd say he could play for any of the youth side's in Europe from what I've seen in that tournament. Chelsea actually tried to get him and they're regarded as 1 of if not the best about..

    I reckon him and Paddy would've been doing some mad baller routines in training..

    Big future with us..

    He was the most impressive player on the pitch today. Like McGuire said, Johnston is always a standout in the academy matches.

    Such an exciting player.

    Thought he was excellent today and showed his obvious potential.

    It’ll be interesting to see how much faith Rodgers puts in the likes of Johnston, Morgan and Christie next season or whether he goes out and tries to buy a ready made first team winger/attacking midfielder.

    I'd say it's definitely time to send him out on loan..

    I think he has the quality to play in the top flight now. Maybe a side like St Mirren who play youngsters, try to play decent football and have a decent surface..

    I would definitely agree. His potential is clear for all to see, but I’m not convinced he’s ready to consistently play for us quite yet. St Mirren, especially if Morgan isn’t loaned back and Jack is still there, would be a great loan move.

    Aye he needs to go somewhere and play regularly, even toughen up in his 'apprenticeship'..

    He could stay here, light it up in the academy for another year and get 1 or 2 game's for the first team. That won't do him much good now..

    A loan will benefit him and us in the long run. I think we're all convinced he's gonna make it here barring terrible injury..

    He was a definite standout in the youths matches I've seen (not many)
    Looks a great prospect, similar sort of tricky fast player as Lewis Morgan. If they have the right mindset, BR will make these two real quality and a continuation of Celtic style of football for the next few years.

    So lucky to have BR, in so many ways, ironic how sometimes life works out, because we can thank the penny pinching and short term focus on who ever sanctioned Delia and most of all by accounts the semi final exuberance and gloating of sevco oafs that finally wound up Dermot Desmond to reign in Scrooge Lawell control of the purse.

    To be fair to Delia he would have played youngsters, MON wouldn't have given them a chance in any real match.

    Seems strange seeing Henrik aging with grey mandela type hair.
    What a player the King was, all thanks to Wilhelmus Marinus Anthonius Jansen, or Wim who was ironically sacked /encouraged out the door on a wim by that OBEse (* was he ever doing at Celtic) kunt jock brown.

    I'm not one for suffixes, so I call him Delia, sometimes call him kuntybollix, regardless, he always looks up with the same clueless goofy fecking head on him.

    Anyone got any highlights of him playing today? Didn’t see any of the testimonial unfortunately…
