    Was decent with them and skuded Morelos so he’s allowed a few bad ones after that

    Boli has all the physical attributes needed to be a top player. By all accounts, Rapid Vienna manager said he was a colossal loss to his plans.

    He’s been thrown into matches and it’s shown. Playing Morgan in front of him during the week left him exposed against a decent team and has resulted in him being criticised further.

    Defensively he isn't good enough, I think that is pretty obvious already. He will be fine domestically in games we dominate, games like the other night he isn't the answer. His first touch gets him in a lot of bother, it's like he is trying to control a bouncy ball.

    Anyone who isn't alarmed after the performance on Wednesday must have been watching a different game.

    Players have bad games all the time he wasn’t bad against St Johnston people saying he was at fault for the goal only a little bit if you watch it back. He was thrown into the deepend in our 1st qualifier away from home was ok then came off injured I’ll give him some more games before fully judging him

    Been hearing a lot of folk Stating that boli is not our first choice LB , Lennon has basically knocked that myth on the head I think

    “We want more competition at left-back and at right-back as well. We lost three of them over the summer”

    What do you expect him to say, Boli is * and we need a 1st choice LB in the door ?

    Again it's an overreaction to everything Lenny is saying, he will be well aware that the guy hasn't had the best of starts, there are ways and means of dealing with the situation.

    It was a terrible performance but it would be really unfair and stupid to write him off already. I liked the look of him at first so it was a shock to see how poor he was midweek. Hopefully given a bit of time he can prove his worth.

    Still feel the same as I did early on, rapid with a good engine, gets into good attacking positions but does nothing once there, passes it sideways or back and quite often not to a teammate, also looks really poor technically and seems to struggle to control a football. Can't defend either, that being said he's had to contend with injury and illness and adjusting to new surroundings and was good against St Johnstone last week so won't write him off just yet but needs to improve and fast.

    Also, Sutton was digging him out constantly Vs Cluj even for things that were fine and not even his fault which has probably had people jumping on the bandwagon.

    The more people are getting on his back the more I'm inclined to defend him :56:

    He's not had the greatest star but, as I've said a couple of times now, I'm trying not to judge him just yet. There have been some positive signs, but it's clear he has a lot to work on to become a reliable defender.

    We have been done with this one. Consistently unable to pass a football ten yards. £3m.
    Bit of the Mad Mo Camara about him.

    Don’t want to judge too early but he needs to sharpen up big time.
