    What would be your views if Katlego Mphela signed a permanent deal with Celtic? I heard he did little to impress in the friendly the other night but would there be some heat on him if he signed for you.

    In case any of you didn't know the South African was rumoured to be moving to Ibrox last summer when he came out with the following statement;

    "Obviously I'd love to go to a team of Rangers' quality and I'd be crazy to turn down a move. They are the Manchester United of Scottish football."

    Do you think Celtic fans would give him a hard time or all would be forgotten?

    I'm sure that I read somewhere that Katlego Mphela grew up listening to Celtic on Clyde 1 in the shanty towns of South Africa

    Unless he vastly improves on his performance against Wolves in the upcoming friendlies I don't think he'll be getting offered a contract so your question might prove somewhat mute.

    Thought he did alright the other night against Scottish defenders he has pace to burn and it was only a great save to stop him scoring, he only got 45 mins looked far better than the other trialist

    Wouldn't he be talking about the fans rather than the club if that was the case.

    If he does sign, he'll get the greatest cheer from opposing fans in an Old Firm game.
