    Needs to work on his passing. Very poor at this level and whenever pressed just lumps it.

    Thought he was awful first half, as were the entire back 4, but was excellent second half. More like himself, going full blood into tackles, and bombing forward.

    Thought he was tremendous tonight. Even first half when it wasn't happening for him he stuck at it. didn't look out of place at all.

    KT hasnt looked himself for a while this season. Dont get whats up. Maybe he is used too much or too much is expected but he doesnt have that fearlessness of last season about him. Everything is too calculated.

    Needs to really improve his composure at this level, too often he punts it and gets scared when the opposition close him down.

    First half he had to compensate for his central defenders because Lustig was beat twice by the same ball on the inside channel within a minute.

    Second half he was far more like himself and took responsibility attacking and defending when we were under the cosh.

    Just lumped it forward to their two centre-backs too often, but I thought he improved immensely in the second half when he just decided to drive forward with the ball. His strike was terrific as well, clipped the post.

    Aye in our own half even domestically at times he panics on the ball, even when the easy option is the inside pass he doesn't have the composure to find the angle instead he'll pass back which boxes us in or lumps it forward in hope.

    Aye his passing was poor but didn't think Sinclair helped him enough to give him an option but short passing under pressure is an area he needs to work on.
    Was looking forward to seeing him up against Robben to see how he coped, he didn't let us down.

    we can all have a bad game he has been great for us overall,think there is more problems in the team that Kt to be talking about, eg no competition on crosses players getting free headers, players like Biton,Nitcham,Gamboa turning away from the ball when other player steaming in( ffs be a man and get the foot in) Armstrongs wayward shooting this year hes gone back to skying it over the bar like he did before last season , lack of concentration at the back and midfield, losing the 2nd ball in Europe, at home we seem to be 1st to the ball but in Europe we not even getting in for the 2nd bounce.....most importantly trying to keep hold of the ball in Europe like we do at home(i know it better level but a wee bit longer not 30 - 40secs man) we have our level and have to accept it, i personally was praying for a draw last night but told the guys in work i would be happy to get away with at least a 2 or 3 nil . hoping to do them at home but will be very very hard:ynwacelti

    I think he’s regressing as a player. Since his injury and then that horror tackle he has lost that fearlessness that made him such a force. I hope it’s a temporary blip in form because he has it all at his feet but needs to find that in himself again.

    Incredibly harsh and unfounded.
