Why does it matter that they had 10 men? It was some cross. |

it matters because traditionally with 10 men flair players a la wingers tend to have more space and since new year anytime he has played against 11 he has underperformed. It matters to do it against 11 players thats why. |

No effing player who gets a game for the Chelsea first team the week prior to signing for us should need any 'bedding in' time. The Commper thing is just puzzling as well. If Mikey's prediction proves true, it'll be a total embarassment. |

It's ludicrous. No player who has never set foot in Scotland before or met any of his new teammates should need a bedding in time. It just sounds as if you're trying to out-moan every other moany carrot on the thread like there's a prize for setting a record

Fair enough it was but I dont think he has done it often enough in games that count this season.

The club employs PR people to hype up these things. It's literally their job. Musonda clearly has a lot of raw potential but maybe he's a bit off being ready to start consistently. It's taken Ntcham most of the season to be trusted to start every game, for example. Sometimes we have to be patient. |

Yes but Ntcham was starting in CL qualifiers and demonstrating both ability and potential to improve. |

That's not the point I was trying to make though. It was making a comparison between the assumed readiness. If a player, any player, can be ready enough to play first team football for Chelsea one week, it's not unreasonable to expect he'd also be ready to play first team football for Celtic. There's a lot of people now saying he needs time to bed in and it feels like those comments are mostly trying to deflect criticism from the boss for not playing him but it's perfectly valid criticism and it's perfectly reasonable to ask questions around why he isn't getting more time. He got a sub appearance right after joining and then got a start the next week, so it's clear Brendan thought he was ready (and makes a mockery of the bedding in time comments). Instead of just allowing the valid line of questioning around why Brendan leaves him on the bench in a game where we're creating next to bugger all against lowly Hamilton, it's excuses from all sides. Anything to ensure we don't ask difficult questions of the boss. We're paying the guy a fortune and he signed this boy - who we're also paying a fortune to by all accounts - and the speed at which people seem to want to shut down any perceived criticism is taking the piss a bit. |

Musonda wasn't available for the CL qualifiers so I'm not sure that's a valid comparison. Mind you, he did make a telling contribution against Zenit. I'm not sure how you can say Musdona hasn't shown either ability or the potential to improve either. Surely the reason he's come here on loan is that he has ability but needs to be developed further? |

He had a great pass against Zenit. Oh and a stepover against Hearts. Apart from that zip. You made the comparison with Ntcham. He was in the starting eleven straight away. |
