    He's had next to no minutes fs, expecting guys to come in out the cold and turn it on is unrealistic. Rodgers should be using him more often.

    Thought he was decent.

    At least his 1st thought is always to pass it forward

    Did well today, maybe the #6 is his role in the team.

    Thought he was a bit of a mixed bag today. Hopefully with more game time he will sharpen up and kick on.

    I thought he was good, and a lot better than Engels and McCowan.

    Done reasonably well today, more positive than Cal on the ball and more mobile too, feel he needs a run of games to kick on

    Was a bit sloppy but did no bad all things considered.
    We just really need some energy in cm though

    Thought he came into the game..

    But, you just want him to grab a game and say * this, this is my domain.. especially v SPL teams like today.

    23, still young for a CM but needs to do much more...

    We didn't miss McGregor tbf, so maybe we are being a bit harsh.

    Thought he had a solid game today and hopefully now he can get more minutes in up coming games and get back to his best. Still think there is a potentially good player there for us.

    Yeah talking about that today. When Rodgers first put McGregor into the 6 position he was a breathe of fresh air he was so progressive with the ball. Think 1 of his 1st games there was either Leipzig or Salzburg and we looked so much more dynamic, then Ange played him there regularly and he was great.

    * knows what's happened to him, whether it's Rodgers tactics or age I dunno but nearly everything is sideways or backwards now. It's sad to see

    I only saw the first half and thought he looked our best midfielder, engels wasnt too great, mccowan inthought was a liability 1st half, very sloppy.

    He needs far more game time, should be rotating him in for McGregor more often. He never got going last season and really needs the minutes under his belt now.

    I really think he can be a very good option for us there in the 6 role for sure and hopefully we see him start to get more minutes and get back to his best form in the coming weeks. He likely will be on bench on Tuesday but if we can get a lead I can see him having an important role to play on Tuesday off the bench.

    I think no6 is his role.

    He isn't good enough attacking wise but he has shown flashes of being quite powerful and being able to take the ball in and keep it simple. Definitely more suited to there.

    Him and Engels as a double pivot, in a 4-2-3-1 would be interesting.

    Aye I think both of them are sitting midfielders tbh. Engels maybe less so.

    Just feel that there is a player there with Bernardo but will need moulded and his game changed a bit.
