    For a footballer he's the size of a house.

    He's got a big diaphram (or however it's spelled) - his da was exactly the same when he approached his older years playing for the likes of Sporting/Man City, he's 38/39 wearing skin tight player performance kits :56:

    I don't think he is.

    When you look at pics of him getting of team bus or walking up Celtic way pre match he looks slimer.

    I think he wears those padded under armour tops, likely due to his age and trying to protect himself. Whether they then restrict his movement I'm not sure.

    He is, without a shadow of a doubt, heavier than he should be. He's a professional footballer.

    I think it’s pretty harsh to have a go at him for not saving a penalty, I’d put more blame on the fact we managed to miss 3 of 5.

    What I would say is what the * was going through his head for that indirect free kick. While it was an absolute terrible ball back to him I’ve got no idea what possessed him to do what he did when it was at head hight right down the middle. Was sheer luck we got away with it.

    I called it a few months ago. I don't think he is even good enough to be our No.2.

    Think we need a new goalkeeper this window, Schemeichel will never see this season out.

    He’s the least of our worries.

    Which in itself is really sad given he’s pushing 40 and is about the same weight as his Da.

    The young keeper signed to step in for him in Sinisalo isn’t a worry for me either.

    Him and his Da at his peak have always been an absolute fridge

    I think it’s quite obvious, Kairat practiced for pens and we didn’t. * all to do with Kasper all of their pens were great.

    He is, without a shadow of a doubt, not over weight.

    Nothing wrong way the fat *, he's just carrying a wee bit of excess timber.

    Sloppy moments are creeping into his game, in possession.

    He didnt do anything outright bad, but there was definitely a few sloppy moments from him.

    Needed to do a lot better for the offside goal mind you.

    He's beginning to give me the fear with sloppy passes about the back.
    Needs to come off his line more too.

    There was the one Dessers could have cut out, the one he absolutely harpooned at Scales and the biggest one of all where he was caught 30 yards from goal from a through ball over the top that Ralston dealt with, if the ball had gone any longer he was going to collide into Ralston and leave an open goal.

    He's got good qualities on the ball but we are so short in attacking quality now that he's trying to force it too much and taking far too many unnecessary risks.
