    His delivery was as * today as it was good literally days before, that is wild to me. He was inch perfect midweek and blootering free kicks and corners to * today. Why???

    Think he literally has no interest in playing in the Scottish Premiership. Can be the only reason. Should be punted in January .

    Thought he was good first half then like everyone else in the team completely went to * second half once they sussed us out and stuck a guy on McGregor.

    He lost his head second half and frustration took over. For whatever reason he just can’t transform his form in Europe to domestic football.

    Pish.

    Overpriced wee nyaff. Would rather we signed a Scottish centre mid who's doing or has done the business in our league.

    I've been critical of our captain for a long time now, but he was basically playing himself in midfield with no help from any *.

    Probably had a handful of genuinely good performances since he arrived here. That's scandalous for a £1m signing, let alone an £11m one.

    11 million pounds for him. We had our pants pulled down.

    2-3 million pound player at best.

    Agrees he's been disappointing majority of season - with one shining light being the Graz game.

    The whole midfield been a disaster, which doesn't help.
    Bear in mind also he's younger than Dane Murray.

    Forget the price tag. Stick with him.

    Everyone is underperforming under a manager that needs to be booted out the club.

    If there was a lack of form, we would see a bunch of players underperforming but now we are talking 100% of the entire squad underperforming. That is always a manager problem.

    Obviously the board as well ofc.

    Whole midfield needs changed in January sell Engels and hatate and probably meada and Yang also and try to bring in a few quality players but it won't happen if Rogers is still there .

    Miles and I mean miles better in a deeper role.

    Didn't do anything spectacular tonight but I don't care. He was working hard and putting challenges in, intercepting. It's definitely his role. He isn't a creator.

    He should never be out of that midfield. Powerful engine on him and as mentioned above, much better deeper..

    He’s a very capable passer from deep. Like the pass through the lines to Kenny early on tonight was a fantastic ball. He struggles massively with that when he’s playing on the half turn in a more advanced role, but it’s so much easier from deep with more of the game in front of you though.

    Him and Callum both looked a lot more comfortable as a two behind a 10.
