    He saved one in a CL qualifier away from home. Beer Sheva I think.

    That's the thing though... Brains distrubution when ever I've seen him has been neat and tidy compared to Gordon

    Made some saves today sure, but I really can't stand him. I really don't get why he's undroppable. Boyata getting stick but the amount of times he and Brown played him into trouble was unreal.

    He gets way too much of the ball, because of the * bags in front of him.

    Rangers know McGregors faults so they play around that as much as the can, us? Nah * it.

    Saved us from an absolute pumping which would've melted the Internet.

    Made some good saves. Saves that a Celtic ‘keeper should be making, though.

    His kicking and decision making is inexcusable. Almost cost us a goal at the start of the second half after a * ridiculous pass to Boyata who was facing his own goal and had a player pressing him.

    He’s a throbber.

    Kicking was the usual * but his saves prevented it from being even more embarrassing.

    Granted he made a few good saves, but you expect that. The fact his distribution puts us under so much pressure is getting a bit much now. It's every game. Get him to * and give Bain a chance.

    Every time he passes the ball you expect the worst. Good stopper but poor decision maker.

    He's a huge part of the reason we could barely get out or own half. Either hopeless long punts or passes straight to players under pressure forcing them to have to make a quick clearance or risky pass.

    Really don't get why Brendan persists with him, Bain has been far more sharper and composed whenever we've seen him.

    I personally reckon he is a decent keeper who isn't suited to what BR wants from a keeper, no shame in that. He is trying to adapt and will therefore make mistakes with his kicking/distribution my concern is BR has signed 2 keepers, who we can only assume had been deemed more suited to what BR wants, yet Gordon still starts.. that's not the players fault.

    Would credit him with the saved, but he caused half the chances.

    Still want him gone, but he was heroic today (apart from the pass to Boyata, who needs to * off).

    If he didn’t kick the ball like a paraplegic he wouldn’t have to make half of the saves.
