Can't even get on tobight with that scoreline. I imagine that will feel discouraging for him especially when another young lad came on.

Yeah he was involved quite a bit more than I was expecting considering how much time he got.

Here’s hoping it’s just trying to create some noise before trying for a transfer.

Well he’s obviously highly rated by whoever is in for him. And Rodgers must also rate him if he brought him on the other nigtt he. Yeah he would get more game time. But as Rodgers said youngsters are there to develop. Even Ferguson who is a it further ahead is on the bench often enough.

I haven’t seen Rodgers say anything about entitlement. I did see he said that he has to earn the right to play.

I’m not comparing him to Bradley. I said if we had acted quicker we could have had Bradley lining out for us.

Highly rated by whom . If he was highly rated he would be getting game time for Celtic not just 5 minutes in a nothing game when its all over

Rodgers talked about him having a sense of entitlement . He is not in Rodgers good books or the cetlic fans either . 

And if he as that good why aren't Scotland after him . They are in dire need of wingers.

And don't even compare this kid with Bradley. Bradley is a star in the making.

Let him go off with Albania . Seriously why are worried about some kid who can't even break in to a Celtic team. Its clear from Brendan Rodgers comments that he doesn't even rate him .

He later added on whether he could change allegiance: “The question is, who is prepared to offer him the best kind of project? Who is going to convince (Rocco Vata), it’s Rocco to make that decision.”

Not sure how you can see anything in that - Rudi is Albanian so obviously he's going to favour Rocco playong for Albania ultimately, but he's very clear thaf he's keeping his nose out of it. That can only be good news for us.
We're decent enough..
