From Big Moments to Big Worries – What’s the Script with Celtic’s Idah?

Right, let’s talk about Adam Idah. Remember last season? The guy was practically a Celtic legend in the making. One minute he was a loanee, the next he was pulling off heroic moments that had the whole fanbase singing his praises. Then, bam! Permanent move. Hero’s welcome. The works. You’d think it’d be smooth sailing from there, right?

Wrong.

So far, things haven’t exactly gone to plan for the lad. He’s not quite hitting those same heights. He’s not exactly struggling, but he’s definitely not setting the world alight. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher, isn’t it?

The Loan Spell Magic

Let’s rewind for a sec. Remember those loan spell moments? The goals that won matches, the runs that left defenders in the dust? That’s the Idah we all fell in love with. He was the kind of player who could change a game in an instant. The sort of player that inspires confidence and makes you think, “This guy’s going places.”

And he was. Straight into the hearts of the Celtic faithful, and seemingly straight into a permanent contract.

The Permanent Move Pressure

But here’s the thing about football: it’s not always straightforward. A loan spell is different from a permanent move. The pressure’s different. The expectations are different. Maybe the weight of expectation is getting to him. Maybe he’s feeling the pressure to replicate that loan-spell magic, and that pressure’s hindering his performance.

It’s easy to forget he’s still relatively young and finding his feet at a massive club. The step up from a loan spell to being a key player at a club like Celtic is huge, and it’s not a transition everyone navigates effortlessly.

What’s Next for Idah?

So, what’s the answer? Is he going to rediscover his form? Is there something tactically holding him back? Is it just a case of needing more time to settle? It’s difficult to say for sure. But one thing’s for certain: he needs support. Not just from the coaching staff, but from the fans too.

The Celtic faithful are renowned for their passion and loyalty. Hopefully, they’ll continue to show their support for Idah during this tough patch. Sometimes, a bit of patience and unwavering belief is all a player needs to rediscover their magic.

He’s shown glimpses of brilliance, and those glimpses are enough to suggest that the potential is still there. It’s just a matter of unlocking it again. Whether that’s through tactical changes, increased playing time, or simply finding his confidence again, only time will tell.

But one thing’s for sure: the story of Adam Idah at Celtic is far from over. It’s a story that’s currently taking an unexpected turn, but it’s still a story we’re all watching with bated breath.

Let’s hope the next chapter is one filled with more of those heroic moments we all remember so fondly.
