What’s the script with Adam Idah, Celtic’s big-money summer signing?
As most strikers do at some stage, the former Norwich City man was going through a bit of a drought. Like most forwards, he is a player who plays with confidence. When goals are not achieved, confidence does not flow.
However, ahead of the last Premier League game, head coach Brendan Rodgers backed him to achieve good results and stressed he was not worried about his goal drought.
However, in the same press conference he expressed delight at the return of Johnny Kenny to the club after a successful loan spell at Shamrock Rovers.
The 21-year-old came on as a substitute for his compatriot against Ross County and missed a good chance of his own. However, this cameo and his experience with Ireland have led some supporters to believe he deserves to start.
Here’s what some of you have been saying in recent weeks…
Peter: We need a center forward who can put the ball in the back of the net. It’s time for a string of games for young Johnny Kenny. Ada can never score enough goals. His statistics prove it.
Neil: Bad organization costs us. Aida is a big question, is this jersey too big for him? We need a good finisher, new striker please Brendan.
Andy: Ada is a waste of a jersey. Kenny, the young lad, should have been played and he couldn’t have done worse.
Patrick: Ada looked too desperate to deal with the pressure of the price tag.
Paul: Compared with last season’s heroics, Ida’s condition is also shockingly poor.
peter Going forward, I’d like to see Kenny ahead of Ada. I think he’s probably going to be a scorer in the long run.
