    Egg on Rodgers' face slightly IMO.

    There's no explanation as to why he hasn't had more game time.

    Thought he had a very good game tonight.

    Time for him and Brendan to kiss and make up. Free weekend, they should go out for a nice meal on Friday night and get to know each other.

    THere has been, he lied to Rodgers and Brendan took the huff rightly or wrongly.

    He’s good enough to play here though, that’s for sure. I’d rather they buried the hatchet now tbh. I wasn’t of that opinion a month ago though :56:

    Did well, but I'm not sure about his positional play from a defensive perspective.

    Genuine question: Why isn't he playing more? Especially in easy games against teams that are happy to sit back and defend.

    Said before the game about his overlapping with the RW, they couldn't cope with 2 rapid * pummelling their LB or RB for that matter.

    When we signed him we said he wasn’t to go to the Gold Cup, he agreed, signed, then went.

    Good player. Should have played a lot more than he has done over the past couple of seasons.

    Deserves more games. Plays quite often in Europe. Is the 20 league games clause with West Brom true?

    He was great tonight having pace on that side gives us so many more options I’d give him a chance

    I don’t like destroying the happy vibe but the first goal he let his man run right off him, didn’t follow it in and we got punished for it.

    He is good enough to play more than h has but he’s not very clever defensively.

    Defensively he's not amazing but he's not terrible either, definitely should be playing more and should have played more than he has so far.

    Keep Lustig in the starting XI for the tough European games, and rotate him with Gamboa for the league and other competitions. He's far better than Ralston
