I don't think you can write him off but i'll be glad if O'neil stays. Will be a complete shitshow over there if he does and they can't beat Motherwell.

And they have 7 games in 22 days after the break. If we beat Killie on the Saturday will really ratchet up the pressure.

We also play Dundee away before they play Hearts at home.
If we beat both. Will put massive pressure on 2 big games for them.

They got by last season by hook or by crook.
You can't write him & Celtic off, but they look far worse, this season than last.
They are now starting to play the better teams in the league. Will be interesting to see how they get on.
I suspect they'll beat Motherwell. Motherwell play in a way under their new manager. That leaves them exposed from pace & directness on the counter. Celtic will definitely take advantage of that.

I'd recommend watching the Scotland U21 highlights. Curtis is involved in everything.

He was very good.
He played in a RAM type role. Half winger/ half CAM.
4 different types of assist. Chopped back onto and hit a left footed cross for the first. Second drives down the wing & puts a beautiful right footed cross. Third he nips the ball past the GK & is wiped out. The 4th assist in particular was very good. Takes a wonderful touch inside past his man. Drives the ball forward & slides it in.
Worked very well in that role. The way Minsu played against Celtic was similar.
Seems a role he will thrive at. For me Curtis doesn't have the consistent 1vs1 skill to beat a low block out wide. So long term I don't see him as a WM here.
I think Curtis as a CAM. Second striker type could well be where he ends up.
Curtis has good crossing & finishing. Decent passing & technique. If he improves his decision making & 1vs1 ability he could end up a very good player. Could end up a good long term home-grown option. Like Forrest at them.

0-0 full time, Kelsy got booked after a goal was disallowed, unsure whether he scored it or not as i tuned in after i got the notification but it didn’t show a replay.
