    Thank * we got him and not that other clown we initially wanted.

    In another Celtic team he’d be a brilliant striker, he’s just unfortunate he’s behind Kyogo but as long as he’s patient his time here will come, he’s too good a player for it not to happen.

    Always puts too much pressure on himself but today he seemed to just be more relaxed and confident. Wasn't rushing and kept the head. 2 composed finishes and loved it.

    Thank * he didn't square his second and nor sold he have. Needs to keep at it

    Gave him fair amount of stick month or so ago but goal v St mirren has given him much more confidence.

    2 really good goals again today and looks much more of an option now and will almost certainly be needed between now and winter break with so many games coming up so coming into form at exactly the right time.

    Great to see his confidence back. I still think he's good enough, just needs games.

    Another excellent shift from the big man hope he keeps proving the doubters wrong. He’s a more than capable backup for Kyogo. His confidence is growing.

    If there is a time for us to experiment with 2 strikers, it is the Lazio game. Mix the 2 explosives and see what happens, since we can't do much else in terms of attacking personnel, and stakes are low.

    We have signed some amount of * strikers for around £2 million to £3 million over the years. The likes of Bangura, Amido Balde, Miku, Lassad, Marc Antione Fortune, Pukki, Scepovic…the list goes on and on.

    Fortunately Oh does not fall into that category. Whether he goes on to be a top quality player is debatable but he’s definitely useful and has talent.

    He never played up front either I don't think, played on the left I recall. Him and Kamara, mind him I think he played for Lennon as well were quite good for us although only here a short spell, both on the left.

    If both were signed they'd probably have played well for us for a season or two. Bit like that Jenz under Ange, came in done well then left.

    I liked Lassad as well. Good player off the left.

    Scored an absolute belter at Tynecastle where he’s cushioned it in off the volley.

    Showing what he's capable of when he gets a decent chance, same as last season, fantastic goals to minutes. Hopefully folk will stop crying about us losing the myth and legend GG at some point, Oh has much more to his all round game with years ahead of him to develop further.

    I certainly won't. I'd give my left baw to have the big man back, and I'm one if Oh's biggest fans.

    GG is a bit bigger and stronger, but that's it imo, their goals to minutes (and Kyogo's) are all fantasic, but he was a big lump with the touch of an elephant at times, and had plenty of appearances where he did nothing which I think people are just forgetting, only remembering the goals. Oh is still a bit of a unit but has all round better techinical ability on the ball and is much much more mobile, only 22 with massive potential to keep improving, while GG is already at his peak.

    I'd take Oh over GG no question.
