    I was one of his biggest fans last season but he's been a liability this season. Worryingly poor form for a while.

    That was about as bad as it gets today. Worryingly * and probably needs to sit out the next one.

    He’s getting worse as the season goes, give Tony a run of games.

    Needs dropped, but in no way is Ralston better than him even at his worst

    Aye listen I love this guy, no-one can challenge his battling for the team but fkn * that was as bad a performance I've ever saw, him and Maeda were probably the worst double act since Rose and Fred west, and abada came on and kept the level at awful, he was * too

    This. Ralston isn't the answer, he's poor too.

    If AJ doesn't sort his * out we'll need to be on the hunt for another RB.

    Apart from his recovery and intervention to make up for it in the first half - which was fantastic against a striker taking far too long on the ball - he really was bang ordinary today. Really, since his injury over the summer (or adapting to the way Rodgers wants him to play) really has not hit anywhere near the heights he was last season.

    Mayybe giving Ralston a run of 2-3 games will light a fire under his *?

    The break will do him well. Didn’t he miss loads of the preseason? Confidenct he’ll come good.
    He just seems to be carrying something? Not to mention his eye injury

    He gives his all and likes getting stuck in but he looked a liability today and was completely stuffed for the whole 2nd half. Needs dropped against st mirren I think and hopefully he’s back better after the break

    Lost for words at how * he’s become.

    One of the biggest drop offs I’ve ever seen.

    His delivery is amongst the worst you’ll see from any full back in our recent history.

    On this form Ralston is 100% a better option. Weird that people would debate that.

    Think we need to have a serious discussion on him. The talk is all about the left back position but , unless he improves massively, we need both sides addressed.

    Was worse than Taylor. At least Taylor played well when we had the ball. AJ was shocking going forward and defending.

    Wasn't impressed with him today, did too much wrong.
