He’s very raw. PSG’s valuation won’t be met by us.

Griffiths is a far better player than this guy. There is no contest. If the club wants to spend a couple of million on this guy to see how he progresses the jobs a gud un. 7/8m..... not a chance.
And I'm far better at my job than the guy who started last summer. I'm a lazy bastard though, so chances are they'll overtake me fairly soon.

He has good instincts, I don't imagine we will sign him though, just too inexperienced and raw.

Not seeing it with him. I wouldn't even waste a contract signing him on a free.

Very harsh. Agreed nowhere near £7m however the bhoy is raw but you can see the potential.

Agreed. I said to my mate the other night that he's a decent player but we'll never pay £7m for him.

Don’t know how you can say that. His movement and decision making is terrible. Can’t see any way we’ll sign him unless he makes a dramatic improvement.

Regardless. Playing him ahead of Griffiths is a piece of nonsense.

I don't agree. We know what Griffiths can do. In games that matter Griffiths will get the nod. Edouard needs games to win his move, particularly since Moussas days are numbered.

Griffiths has nothing to prove to BR and one of the reasons I think he has been so accepting of this situation is because he knows exactly what the manager is out to do.

Our season isn't some extended trial or friendly series. Our best players should play full stop; we can't afford to have guys in their prime like Griffiths sitting on the bench while we decide whether loan signings and trialists are worth the money. I'm sorry but a yoghurt can see that Griifiths is a FAR better player than Edouard right now. Starting the one ahead of the other is complete nonsense. That may change. I honestly can't see it. The kid has some talent but he is ain't going to be kept at Celtic for half the agreed £8m price. I'd be reluctant to pay a quarter.

I don't think it was a bad idea to give Odsonne an extended run in the team, but now it's time to bring in Griffiths and Dembele.

Raw,maybe, but no way that we should be throwing any serious money at.

I like the guy - he's absolutely raw though. We certainly shouldn't be spending 7m on him though.

He's played just over 6 full games...how are we supposed to make a judgement on him if we don't seen him play against better opposition. We know what Griffiths can do, Moussa may be away or not properly focussed

I agree. Edouard looks like he might have something about him and we need to find out if it's worth investing at the end of the season when Dembele moves on. Problem is, I can't see Celtic coughing up what PSG want and to be honest, based on what we've seen so far the price tage isn't justified.

That doesn't mean I don't like him though and wouldn't buy if the price was right.

I'd wait and see how Edouard gets on with a a real No10 playing behind him, if we manage to sign Musonda for example.

It might also see Dembele kick on a bit too.

Brilliant. Should have scored at least one more goal.
