    Felt for him, Taylor and Reo offering him jack * support, he kept at it right till the death. Would like to see JJ behind him and CMcG on left side of midfield midweek. Looks like he has taken shooting lesson from Christie.

    He needs to cut out the blind pass and wee flicks. It's as though he thinks he's better than he actually is. Been pish since his injury.

    Has a cockiness to his game at the moment which is undeserved.

    Needs to get back to basics.

    He was a lot better today but as others have pointed out, needs to keep it simple rather than going for the fancy flicks sometimes.

    Another who’s form is a concern, I don’t mind the flicks personally if they have intent. The bigger problem is the lack of directness or willingness to create.

    Hes still great. However you can see why his parent clubs willing to let him go. He really needs to stay, head down and develop or hes going to be wasted on a bench and loaned out forever.

    I really want Jura back behind him. Him, Taylor and Hatate’s not quite working.

    Poor again, the pointless wee heel flicks he was trying were idiotic and did nothing other than give away possession. Maybe some competition for his place might give him the boot up the * he so richly deserves.

    He's not kicked a ball since his injury, but as I said earlier, his attempts at flicks and blind passes is infuriating.

    I wouldn't say Juranovic not being behind him is the problem. I just think he's looking like he's lost that edge, and the fancy stuff isn't coming off for him.

    Get back to basics.

    Seen the same with Elyounoussi couple of years ago. Always looked a far better player when played with Bolingoli.
    Taylor drags players down

    This was the issue at Benfica coming through the ranks, played brilliant then got his chance and showboating and making the wrong choices cost him.

    I honestly thought that was over but it’s creeping back in.

    No doubt he is a fantastic player but having Taylor playing behind you doesn’t help at all, plus he is having 2/3 men on him right away now.

    Posted this in Jan.

    Think he's been like this since he's come back from injury and Portugal.. maybe Benfica had told him they definitely want him back and it's gone to his head a bit..

    Needs to get back to being more clinical but is definitely missing the movement and class of Kyogo.

    I think the last point is a big one as well. He is definitely not playing at the level he was earlier in the season, not long before he got injured was his best spell.

    I suppose a few things to remember is this will be the most first team games he has played in a season. He had an injury that kept him out for a month and a half, I hoped the Aberdeen game would have given him a lift but he hasn’t kicked on.

    He still has moments of class in games the ball to Abada on a Sunday against Hibs should have led to a goal and he made an excellent run when Maeda tried to go round the keeper just crying out for a square ball.

    The one last night Maeda had a swing and a miss at and Abada pulled the save from the GK should have been a goal. However he definitely doesn’t look as dangerous as he did earlier in the season.
