Harper played mostly a number 9 for Celtic in the lower levels and when he played for the first team he played as the lone man up top . The kid is very fast and very good with the ball on his feet

A two-footed player, what a concept! Do we have a player at the moment who's comfortable with both feet? Omir maybe?

 

Davis is a very good two-footed player

Davis is a ... two-footed player


Very? In what sense? Not even sure he is that good.

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Ha sorry awkwardly worded, I just meant that he is very good at using both feet, not necessarily that he is a very good player. Not to hate on him too much though, he's a decent player who imo has suffered from never being allowed to settle into a role that suits him.

Good shout. Unfortunately he's stopped shooting the ball or passing it anywhere but sideways and back, so somewhat irrelevant...

i really hope Gerhard can undo the sideways passing mentality Davis picked up last two season.  He used to really progress the ball forward when he first came up.

besides davis Royer is the only other person i think has a decent weak foot.

He's played one senior game in his life... and that was this week.
 
On the bench for Celtic today.


The only way he got into the game he played was because a dozen or so first team players were out with COVID.

Could happen here.

Better touch than Barlow? Then it sounds like if he comes over, he has a very real chance to be a starter on this side of Atlantic.

Hope this guy will be a depth piece, a Stroud/Mines replacement. Good to hear about his skills with the ball at his feet, would be nice to have that as a different option than what we already have. Someone who can create off the dribble is always welcomed.
