    Superb first half, a couple of wee things at the back you could be critical of but we played more football in that 45 minutes than we did of the whole of last season. Feel a bit robbed as it should have been at least 4 up. How long we can keep that pace up going forward is anyone's guess, but more of the same second half. And that Hun in black should be called out, 2 reds for sure and Christie being rugby tackled but no freekick !!. I wonder if those 2 tackles will be looked at after the game.

    First time we’ve played enjoyable football in about 18 months.

    Kyogo will be a * superstar. Not just his goals, movement or skill but his workrate is * insane. The amount of balls he closes down is incredible.

    Refs been a joke. Tackle on Ralston was a * disgrace.

    Total domination. Not a single shot from Dundee. Pretty much played the game in their half. Impressive stuff.

    A really bright first half. We were very inventive and creative and it shows the difference that a good keeper and a striker can make. Also how big a difference a direct winger can make. The movement has been excellent and we look far better organised than against Hearts. Edouard has been a man down for far too long now. Kyogo has got something special about him.

    Whole team played good. You know it's going well when Tom Rogic is bursting a lung to press *.

    Ref has been a * disgrace btw. Disgusting refereeing.

    Playing some beautiful football here but I fear for Kyogo’s health in this league with these refs

    If that * Eddy had 20% of the commitment passion and 110% Ralston puts in the * would do okay

    Ralston playing well! Kyogo obviously the star of the show, him and Abada will have a good understanding I think this season

    Why does James McCarthy talk like he doesn’t know what day of the week it is?

    At last we have a striker who actually looks like he enjoys scoring goals! Great first half by the wee man.

    Absolutely dominant that half. What a difference a good striker makes.

    Literally the best performance in over a year.

    Kyogo is immense.

    If we were wearing a certain shade of * blue, Christie would've had two free kicks where he was fouled just outside the box and Marshall would've had a red card.

    Horrendous refereeing again. Honking.

    If our board had any stones, they'd come out and release a statement about how our players are not being protected and the refs are allowing players to take chunks out of them. Ralston could've easily had his leg broken.

    In a terrific first half, Taylor has been honking. If we play out the back like we have been, we will be punished against stronger opposition. Starfelt doesn't look like he's built for playing out the back.

    The upsides, which there are many... Turnbull looks back to his best. Christie is making us all hope he signs a new deal. Abada is fearless. McGregor is running the show. Rogic can press. Bitton should never play for us again. Hart hasn't had to lift a finger. Kyogo is the best player in the league.

    I wasn't even a critic of him as always assumed he's gonna be forever a squad filler.
    I still don't think he's an answer but can say nothing negative about what he's been showing so far this season.
