    He gave Ziggy Gordon a 5 yard head start and eased past him near the end..

    It was painful watching :56:

    I like him. I really hope he's still here next season.

    Even though they've let him out on loan, WBA seem to really like him and I doubt they'll be willing to take a loss on their £15m investment.

    You can see why he has accumulated such high transfer fees, I wish we could afford him as he is a cracking player.

    What a player this guy is. Big, strong, quick, skillful and intelligent. He actually reminds me of Mark Viduka that way he turns with the ball and some of his flicks and touches have been excellent.

    I don't know how we could get him permanently but I'd love us to try.

    I personally feel Edouard and Bayo will be better served, you don't by the sounds of it? (don't say you never said that as you really are, we only play 1 up front).

    The guy is a winger and when it comes to Europe and tougher tests here voices will soon change. Play the guy where he is used to.

    It makes no sense to me, given that he couldn't get a game for WBA and I hate to admit I was totally wrong, but he looks a * good player. His movement and hold up play are also extremely good for someone played out of position. How'd he end up warming WBA's bench? Genuine question.

    Hopefully they allow us to extend his loan for another 12 months. Breath of fresh air just now.

    Faster than I thought and more importantly he fancies himself to be beat people for pace so will give folk a yard or 2 headstart. I am far more enthusiastic about him than I was when he first joined!

    Honestly think he’d be dynamite on the wing with the licence to drift in, which we do naturally under Rodgers anyway.

    Him rampaging down the wing whipping balls into Bayo is something I'm literally choking to see.

    And no in a @Matteo Salvini way...

    Looked more dangerous than Weah up front, perhaps it was the tiredness of the Hamilton players but Him and Forrest looked very lively

    So annoying because after a few more game's we'll never get him back. West Brom will take him back in 6 month's and he'll shine up top..

    Early day's and a big statement but he may be absolutely key in getting past Valencia on the counter..

    Worth trying him in the 10 with Rogic out so we can accommodate Forrest, Sinclair or whoever on the left and Edouard/Bayo up top?

    I would never of said that when we signed him but his runs from deep, touch and link up play would probably work well there..

    No chance West Brom will allow an extension on his loan deal.. it’s not as if they have an abundance of talent.

    Think he’s dynamite in the centre, he’s giving Scottish CBs the absolute fear..

    If he plays up top when Eddy is fully fit I’ll get WATP tattooed on my *.

    His best attribute I’ve seen is running in behind. Don’t want a 10 doing that.
