    I agree the team as a whole were well below par.

    However, Ki just isn't good enough. I've constanly moaned about the defensive side of his game which is horrible. He can't tackle, he takes an eternity to close anyone down and allows people to run off him constantly. Ive always thought we are weak in the middle with him in there, he is so slow its unbelievable, I've seen more mobility in a slug

    For me Ki doesn't like being physical, I CAN'T understand why Lennon plays him in the middle of the park on Derby Day when he doesn't like getting stuck in. Imo shouldn't have started today.

    He's maybe been told not to dive in to tackles as he's * at making them when he does try to but what I really don't like about him is he always wants to * around and take too many touches before he does anything with the ball. As long as he keeps doing that I can't see him making much of an impression against any good team.

    I'd definitely sell him if we get an offer in. January would probably have been a better time to sell than now as his stock was pretty high after scoring a few goals at the start of the season and in the cup final last year.

    Bang on there. He would've been the 3. player to get a red card, had he tackled as hard as the other players do. His tackles are a problem.

    It is true that we lack physicality with him in the team. But then, we should have played the slow, passing game like Italians often do. Kill the potency of the Rangers' initial attack. Ki and Ledley should be ideal for that.

    He's a shitebag. Good to watch when things are going well but he can't handle it when things aren't. Him and Cha can both * off.

    i think hes exactly the type of player we need to get rid of, loads of potential , looks good in the "easier " games when given space , but pulls a houdini in the big games imo

    If we really got an 8m bid for him from Rubin Kazan we were stupid not to accept it he's not worth half of that IMO.

    Have never felt that he was going to get to the level we wanted him to. Too many banging on about his "potential". Well he will have 18mths left on his contract in the summer so we need to punt him and get some of our cash back.

    The Korean Steven Gerrard indeed. Wasnt the only one today, but we are constantly told how talented he is and he rarely shows it. If he had the same application as Brown and Ledley he might be a better player.

    Anonymous. Again.

    Not singling him out as such but when you're made out to be the Maestro by some then questions must be asked.
