    All you talk about is how bad you think he is.

    We get it Calvin. You're not happy.

    From what I seen of the game looked a lot better defensively. Would put money on him having a big game against the huns.

    His passing was very positive, worked the ball in good areas, was always available for the ball, skint a few players, had them commit men, he covered going back, he was good positionally and he was solid in the tackle. He had a good game.

    He is improving. Just not used to being an out and out left back I think. His passing was far better, which will obviously come with confidence.

    Aye it's quite the opposite. He's been well doubted and rightly so.

    Don't think anyone is suggesting we're a finished article in defence. Boli is good though, an exciting player who wants to and is making things happen, our creative players definitely don't mind giving him the ball.

    He was showing some signs, even though hearts are pish, of aggression as a defender today.

    Once he has proper competition he'll get even better, i still think he'll always have those defensive lapses but once he's settled he'll be a good asset with teams that park the bus.

    Good performance today. Few slack passes but delighted that he never let that get the better of him. Deserves a lot of credit for keeping his chin up the last few weeks.

    Honestly believe he will be a great player once he’s fully settled.

    Played better today, best game in the hoops. Still worry about him though think is prone to a clanger which will cost us.

    Fingers crossed he gets more confidence each game he gets.

    He looked alright today. Next two games will be a big test for him.

    It's easier to play well when the team is looking strong against AIK or Hearts at home, but when the pressure is on away in Sweden or at Ibrox it will be a bit more difficult. Hopefully his confidence is up and he keeps improving.

    I think people who have convinced themselves he is * are picking on any mistake he makes. On the other hand, there are some who are praising the basics you would expect from any player to try and convince others he is a good player. In all honesty I think he is a poor player. His first touch let's him down and defensively he isn't great. If we are constantly attacking he isn't a concern but he scares me if being asked to defend. I don't think he is good enough and I wouldn't start him next week.

    Who do we play LB and why? I'm really not sure. Obviously after the last two calamities which didn't reflect our ability at all I would love to go full of confidence and not blink an eye. Boli could be good for that but then there's the danger of being overconfident cause they do have some dangerous players so maybe Hayes would be more solid and with Ajer or Elhamed on the other side we force them in the middle which is where we control the game?
