[@nobeansnoparty]

I am so disappointed that he wasn’t used more at Celtic, we’ve had decent wingers in the time he was there but I’m sure he could’ve been given more game time than he was. He was showing good signs in preseason (2021), showing he might be worth a bigger role, but got a bad injury. The tackle was fucking awful as well if I remember correctly. Really wish he got more of a chance. Also, fuck Bristol City. He’s still a very capable player and he’s only young yet (19). I truly hope he makes it to the very top. (Possibly another stint in the hoops before he’s too good for the Scottish league 😂)

[@jeffsweaty]

loved him at celtic. shame he left but we cant complain with the talent at the club now

[@RMCM1872]

I played against him when he was coming through at youth level with Celtic when I was 10/11 years old and he was ridiculously good. Surprised he’s stagnated but he’s still young so plenty of time on his side. Him and Xavi Simons were the best from that age group

[@degradedanimationandgaming6722]

what about you? you still at celtic academy or nah? just a question

[@dermotmurphy9080]

Yeah I played against him too, unreal player. He scored about 4 in one half

[@bigdom3810]

His ego was massive. Went to the school that has the academy and people who played with him said after he started getting recognition online his attitude and ego took over and he thought he was too good. Never seen him play well in a Celtic first team shirt either.

[@thatkidibrah9132]

Honestly heard this and it's been debunked he's humble and doesn't talk much people assume and make assumptions and his only problem at Celtic was injuries not attitude he doesn't post anything like his training and etc. He's not on social media like that he was more focused on getting back from injury he never had an ego

We may have slightly different definitions of what "breaking into the first team" means. He was in amongst the first team squad and made several appearances, hence he broke into the team. Sure he didn't become a first team regular during his time, but he also suffered several injury setbacks throughout.

[@thatkidibrah9132]

He literally played with the first team

[@CelticGoals]

​@DMac__ but your definition of broke into the first team Is we subbed him on in the final game of the season when the league was already won

[@sohaibnadeem4395]

Heres the deal for these wonderkids since 2010. 1. Either they are way in over their heads. or given that confidence. 2. They get so much so fast its not handled well by themselves. We have seen so so many boys getting there. and yet alwasy falling short in any case you wanna take into account. Whether its Bojan, Bendtner, Halilovic, Ibe, Rodwell. I do accept the examples given are very very odd except Bojan but these were those breakouts. I am not certain at all that Dembele would get far either. But if he has that mindset to persevere, he might. However a longshot!!!

[@chrisjparkinson]

Bring back the old YTS scheme I’d say, have the youth team players cleaning boots and locker rooms like the old days. Will help keep them in check, too much money too soon.

I think the kid made a good move. He had a big spotlight on him, which isn't always beneficial. It creates hype and expectations that in turn create huge pressure on a young kid.

He has a small frame and the last thing you want is some 6'3" / 85kg central defender putting an elbow in his ear or someone giving him a bad tackle, and then you get Ousmane Dembélé’s situation at Barca.
