    It was hardly Cha's fault more Maj, Cha was one of our top performers IMO.

    Doesn't look to me as if there is any sort of order because we have yet to have all 3 right backs 100% and ready to be picked.

    Wilson was excellent last year but has started this season slower, he also has dodgy knees and is handled with kid gloves. Apart from that though Matthews has been playing very well and Cha gives us something we don't have in pace.

    I thought this as he was top class last season and could
    Put a few away also.
    Must be a injury but saying that cha is starting to look good lots of pace and beating a few once he is consistent with the crosses he will be a starter every time IMO

    maj was the worse obviously but cha was very poor defensively; for example the second goal he just lets the guy put a dangerous ball in the box unchallenged :nonono:

    never been convinced by cha, well behind wilson and matthews in my pecking order!

    I agree. Wilson was one of the reasons our defence tightened up bit more last season. Playing a very attacking LB and RB is not doing our weak defence any favours. Wilson would be my first choice.

    For moment, Du-Ri is better than Wilson on this season but it is not a reason to throw Wilson out. He is one of the last emblem player of this team so, I think it will be better if he stays at Celtic :smile:

    Wilson and Mathews are 10 times the player cha is. Cha should be given a free IMO

    I also don't see much point in Cha.

    Yes he probably is faster, but that's his only redeeming feature. In all other respects (most painfully, his final ball) I don't rate him at all.

    The goal tonight just the icing on the cake.

    I'd be absolutely spewing if I was behind the oriental imposter in the peking order.

    As much as Cha is frighteningly quick it means * all when you have no positional sense or awareness, which he clearly doesn't.

    You can see why he was moved from being a striker to a right back, he only has 1 way to kick and run in that position thus limiting him from making a howling * of it.

    I've said in the past he has a vital attribute, which he does in his pace, but we can't legislate for having him in the side when he is as clueless as he was a few times tonight.

    Same. I would be moaning constantly.

    Wilson is the best right back in Scotland in my opinion.

    I have been told by Wilson's uncle that the players were all annoyed that Forster walked straight back into the team when he was signed ahead of Zaluska because he hadn't done much wrong and Mark Wilson spoke up and has rarely played since!

    Apart from that one mistake, i thought Cha had a fine game. And if we start judging and slating a player based on couple of mistakes or performances no one in the team should be starting :shamrock:

    I seem to remember Wilson speaking out in support of Zaluska in the media.

    Would be a real shame if he was being frozen out due to that as he had the season of his life last year and unlike a few of our players he really knows what it means to pull on the Green & White hoops.

    As you know I've slated Cha on countless occasions before.

    Last night merely re-affirmed my opinion of him.
