Johnston looks fast and has great dribbling skills, hopefully he gets some games this season, no reason why he can't get game time against lower spl sides that Celtic expect to beat easily.

That’s not how Rodgers does it though. He plays a full team vs Brechin City then moans about too many games and fatigue! Calvin Miller is another excellent young player who needs a loan or to leave.

er yir macaroon Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) If the game had lasted another 15 minutes we’d have won. Gilmour, Johnston, Hornby and Burke did make a big difference. Johnston has McGeady-like skill but with real pace to boot - needs to get the heid up a bit though.

Probably to give most of the squad game time as it didn't really matter whether we finished third or fourth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would of been nice to finish on a high with a win over what looked like a decent turkey team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookerman Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Billy Gilmour was voted player of the tournament not bad for a 16 year old! and mikey johnston was voted third. proves we do have talent, fingers crossed thies two can make the jump to first team level in the next few years.

Gilmour wasn't voted player for the tournament. He was the revelation of the tournament which I think means the best player that nobody knew of two weeks ago. The big shock with the awards is that we didn't get "goal of the tournament". Infact it was one of England's goals against us that won it. Bizarre choice.

It was the Mexican midfielder, forget his name, who got POTT. Great accolade for Gilmour though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he is a left-back. I'd rather see him further up the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyD Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Actually really happy watching some of our younger players, and how comfortable on the ball they are. Are we're starting to see some of what the SFA put in place under Levein? In 3-4 years, if all goes to plan then the idea of a midfield with Gilmour, Gauld, McTominay, Michael Johnston, and Oli Burke would be a joy to watch. Pie in the sky stuff right now and plenty of time for things to go wrong, but to have players that comfortable with the ball would be lovely. Of course, people like Fraser, Morgan, Armstrong and McGregor etc aren't going anywhere in that time, so is likely to be our strongest area of the pitch for a long time to come. Defense is improving, and there's even some young strikers who might come thru in the next few years (McBurnie, Hardie, Hornby, Shaw). Feeling like the futures bright, even tho I'm not enamoured with McLeish's current custodianship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
