    His delivery must improve. Woeful yesterday.

    Aye, he's been below par this season compared to performances he's put in the last couple a years.

    Got told he's getting a wee bit of the billy big bollocks attitude about him and thinks he's untouchable...

    I always slate his throw-ins but in fairness yesterday, the lack of movement was woeful. Makes KT look a bit stupid when he stands there for half an hour with the ball above his head.

    They’re still * either way.

    Mon son!

    His crossing used to be a big strength of his game but it's been really poor of late.

    Was it ever really? I recall his cut backs when hitting the by-line being really good, but his actual crossing has never impressed me.

    His final ball, as a whole, I should say. He always used to pick out a man.

    Noticed it against the huns last week in the last few minutes. Griff was waiting for a tap in from 6 yards out, but Tierney decided to cut it back to nobody when the pass to Griff was on.

    I agree with Paddy that he's not been at his best this season, but then very few players have.

    He needs to improve his intelligence on the ball. Too many times he gets it and doesn't lift his head, could have double the amount of assists he has if he just took that extra bit of time.

    I know he is a left back as well but it would do him no harmm to work on his right peg, as he looks extremely uncomfortable on it.

    These aren't major things, and at 20 year's old he has few weaknesses. But still plenty for him to improve on as I don't think we've always seen the best of him this season.

    However, in saying that, he has played a staggering amount of games. Genuinely incredible. That has to be playing a part.

    My favourite player in this side, though. You always know what you will get from him and we very rarely lose anything from his side.

    Aye it has been..

    His firm cut backs were almost weekly hitting the target but some of his crossing has been beautifully whipped in plenty..

    I do agree it's no been as often this season or of late particularly. Especially his cut backs picking out a man..

    On the flip side though, we don't seem to have as many bodies breaking a neck to get in the box and 6 yard box and pulling off. If anything, ball's are sometimes going right across the 5 yard box and due to a lack of bodies to pick out or bursting a gut....and it fizzles out..

    We didn't see much of any of that yesterday but we did see a lack of runner's when we were attacking..

    I heard he doesn't even sing the "IRA" and "Sinn Fein" add-ons during 'Fields of Athenry'.

    For that reason I'd punt to the highest bidder in the summer.

    People love tearing down confident, successful people. What's he done or said that's bad?

    But you’re happy to level the accusation at him on here with nothing to back it up? Tool.

    Can't see what's he's done to earn that accusation either!
