    His passing is too erratic
    He loses out in too many duels
    He’s very poor defensively

    We need far, far better options off the bench in the summer to where he’s a capable 6th choice type option and no a go to first or second sub around the hour..

    If we get Schlupp permanently and have Bernardo as an option again then I think that’s part of the back up plan for him. Schlupp can play in the middle, if Tierney’s at left back.

    I hear that but would be a bit concerned with KT's injury record if his 32 year old backup was playing a decent percentage of games at centre mid as well..

    I don’t think it’d be a decent amount of games he’d play there either. Calmac, Engels, Bernardo, Hatate and McCowan would all be ahead of him if we don’t lose any of them. If we do I imagine Rodgers would bring in fresh blood to replace them as well. But he’s an option there, and can come in handy.

    We should have 2 for every position in the 3 for me..

    I think Hatate will go in the summer, so 2 centre mids of quality id want in..

    McGregor - new centre mid
    Engels - Bernardo
    New centre mid -McCowan

    Then Schlupp and KT at left back. If in crisis Schlupp can fill in at centre mid then..

    Has to spot the danger for the first goal yesterday. Just lets Campbell jog away from him and doesn’t track, but he can clearly see nobody else is getting to him so surely had to go with him. Does this too often.
