    Looks half the player of last season.

    He was absolutely honking, pace has gone, clumsy decisions, passing atrocious and going forward kills us.

    We need a new rb.

    Aye, it's looking like we may need to strengthen there.

    Was terrible today. I don't want to say players can earn the chance to play like this but I'm not too worried. Needs a boot up the backside though

    He needs to up his game, way of it from last season.

    Was it his short pass that Welsh got injured in? Thought he was honking today, other than one decent run out from defence.

    He had his worst game in a Celtic jersey, imo.

    Hasn't been the same since the injury.

    I don't think he got much of a preseason either.

    It's definitely a worry.

    I think he'll come good again long term, maybe the winter break will do him good.

    Poor today though. Very poor.

    Our right side was incredibly weak today going forward and defensively.

    Needs a break. Was a shambles too often today

    Definitely like to see Ralston against St Mirren. Not sure it'll happen given Rodgers didn't sub him today.

    He is utter gash. Defensively poor and adds nothing going forward.

    He's definitely a worry at the moment. Miles off the player he has been.

    Got to be more to it? Maybe the winter break will do him the world of good but he needs to get the finger out.

    Only reason I can think why Rodgers didn't sub him is it would have been another change to an already changed defence.

    Don't really think that's a good reason and could have cost us today.

    He was awful today and hasn’t been at his best in general.

    But I think a lot of the criticism outside of today has been overblown. We’re constructing a whipping boy.

    I genuinely don't think it's much of a stretch to say he was their best player
