    How can you unsuccessfully dribble 4 times but only be dispossessed 2 times btw? That’s weird

    Just lacks impact in games for us. Thought a couple of games back, might have been Motherwell he had some really good bursts, but didn't do much today. Hard to believe people were booing him from the off, that stinks.

    Even if Vata is for the off end of season think we should consider him now. Don't think Maedas fully fit after today and we need options.

    Think he dribbled the ball across the line for a throwin at one point. Might be that?

    As a man who has supported Mikey on his road to glory, and who only seen the first half yesterday...am now confident on saying he is done. Absolutely done.

    I was worried before the game that he, having had so many injuries in his career, should not be playing several games in a row. I suppose it's like Greg Taylor- an average player at best playing through fatigue.

    It’s a shame he seems to be singled out for so much flak but he is one of a great number of players in the current squad that should be shipped out and never pull the hoops top on again, we all know we have far too much deadwood in the current squad.

    He’s from the academy, that’s what ‘fans’ seem to do, pick on their own……..Welsh, Forrest, some in here were wanting McGregor dropped the other week ffs.

    I admit it's a bit harsh that he was essentially getting abused before he even touched the ball at times but he was rank rotten anyway.

    I don't blame him he shouldn't have been in that position as he's not good enough.

    Get him to *, pick a youth from the B team and play them. Put Yang back in, he's shown he can do more than Mikey even though he loves an offside.

    Change the formation, it's not working with the wingers we have so switch it up to something else.

    Just stop playing *

    Was desperate to see him turn it around. Enough is enough though. That was * woeful from him yesterday. He shouldn’t pull the strip on again.

    How he gets a chance before Vata I will never know.

    No wonder all of our youth prospects * leave when * like MJ get chance after chance.

    I see where you are coming from but there is many players outwith the academy that need to be released before Academy players!
    The only 2 from the academy that I would include in the list is Forrest and MJ.

    Don't rate him, but I don't hate him either.

    Like certain others, he's a victim of circumstance, who shouldn't be near our staring eleven due to injuries and the board's failures in the transfer market.

    He will probably flourish better, at a team where the expectancy isn't as high as here. You need a certain mentality to succeed here.
