    I have no idea what his strengths are.

    He does nothing particularly well and most things poorly.

    Simply no better than a backup player.

    but his backup is hopeless.

    big position upgrade needed in January. Among others.

    For the winner, I blame Taylor more than I do Phillips. Theres two Killie players in acres of space where he should be. He wasnt where he is supposed to be as a left back before Phillips is even involved.

    He tried to break from the back into the central midfield position on more than one occasion. His primary focus for us should be to play and position himself as a left back. We got caught out as a result. have already centre mids.

    He was miles out of position for both goals

    targetted again and brutal again but it’s become the norm with him tbh

    Back in the summer the LB position needed addressed amongst other positions , we failed to do anything about it, as a result this is where we are today, nothing will change unless we show some ambition and improve the quailty in the areas of the team that badly need it.

    Stockpiling cash will not improve the product on the park.

    He got lucky that one that AJ cleared off the line. That was awful. Then the one he passed straight to their wide player as well.

    We all know that the LB position hasn't been addressed since KT left but how the * have we been stuck with Taylor this long I will never understand.

    Done well for large parts of last season but it’s like Scales this season - it was a purple patch and that’s it.

    The fact he’s played 150 games for us shows you how bad our recruitment has been in recent years.

    He was * today, but also from what Rodgers said on Wednesday there's a good chance he's playing whilst ill.

    We really shouldn't be doing that to players even if they are willing to play. Really needs sorted out ASAP in the January window as possible.

    He is brilliant at the media side, does excellent interviews and that with players. Maybe play him alongside Gerry McCulloch from now on.

    Gotta be that imposter syndrome, bad case of it going round the club the now. Whatever his illness is, must be bad. Cause he's been very poor all season.

    Absolutely * embarrassing watching Kilmarnock players ripping the * out of him in injury time.

    Every week, every team we face, whether domestically or in europe target him as the weak link. It's a * disgrace he's still our only genuine option at left back.

    150 games and 3.5 years on from signing and probably most damming thing you can say about him is that he wouldnt get in killie team now.

    He's not even good enough for back up bcoz ur only 1 injury away from him being back in the team. He needs punted in the summer and 2 left backs need brought in

    Rather play scales there and bring in one of the other central defenders with CCV as every team targeting him in every game and we can see why and if he stays in the team we will leak goals .

    Probably his best performance of the season, I thought he was great at the back and going forward.

    Doesn't seem to play like a LB,all over the place tonight would rather Palma came inside a bit more allowing him to overlap when we attack and needs to stop crosses coming into the box
