    Fedor was tireless tonight and worked as hard in defence (when required), as in attack, which many strikers don't/won't do.

    A really good shift by the lad.

    looks to be coming in to his own now, Fair play.

    Outstanding performance. Taking players out with lovely wee turns and shoulder dropping. Always seen a player in him and I think he's starting to settle. Credit to Lennon for having the balls to stick by him

    A lot of people seem to have changed their tune on Miku now he's been given more of a chance to show what he can do. Hope these great performances continue from him. :50:

    Lenny claimed himself that Miku has the most technical ability in the squad, or something to that effect. Not trying to gang up on the guy, but ffs give the man some more game time. We could risk losing a very good player.

    Thought he should've came on for sure at HT v. Benfica, when no one was holding onto the ball, and got a chance yesterday as well.

    Any particular reason he didn't even make the bench yesterday? No way hooper should be guaranteed a start ahead of Miku in his current form.

    He was on the bench, just never got on. The substitutions yesterday were bizarre to say the least

    Apologies if I've misread the team sheet then. In that case it's even more baffling that he never saw some game time. A bit of quality and composure to link the middle to the front was sorely lacking yesterday.

    Was raging at this guy not being brought on. Couldnt believe McCourt coming on before both him and Lassad. Especially when Hooper was having the worst game Ive ever seen from him personally.

    McCourt I can understand, he is someone that is at least willing to try and create something, more than what can be said for the vast majority of the team that started. As I have said in a previous thread, in no way should he be starting regularly, but he done more in two minutes than most of the team had done. The bottom line is, the last two games, Lennon has chosen players that are injured or extremely unfit over Miku and Lassad.

    I'd be starting miku and lassad up front for a wee while in the spl to see how it goes, I'd think they'd compliment each other quite well.

    Surely he has to start or at least get a run out against Spartak. He moved from La Liga to play Champions League football and he isn't even getting the nod against Inverness. He looks like he has some quaity just needs a run of games. And they should have come after his goal to give him some momentum.

    Exactly, the fact he pretty much got dropped after he scored his 1st goal is completely mental. Poor decision by Lenny. I love Lennon and the last thing I want him to do is leave, but his subs on Saturday and team selection lately is confusing me.

    Spot on. Think we're in danger of losing, potentially, a very good player for us if he's doesn't play in Europe.

    Lennon clearly * hates loan deals as he never gave that Brozek a chance either.

    Oh well, we won't need to worry about that any longer as we won't be getting any more players loaned to us!

    Miku has already impressed and he definitely need more starts - in the league as well as in Europe. Completely agree that in his case we have the potential to squander a very good forward.

    Maybe it's just me but I always felt like we signed Brozek just so Rangers couldn't have him seeing as they were sniffing around.


    In all honesty if Miku dosen't play a bigger role in the next few games I could see him going back to Getafe in January, at this stage in his career I don't think he really want's to be sitting on the bench he seems more ambitious than that.

    He clearly has skill but got off to a bad start here, he could turn out to be a big player for us given the chance and provide that creativity in the midfield for us that we lack.There's no real reason that we're aware of that stops him from playing.

    Both him and Lassad at least deserve a start in the SPL as they've shown that they are at least capable of that, and they can't be much worse than what's been on the pitch the last few games. At this point in time, he seems like wasted money because right now he's Paddy McCourt 2.0 and it seems very unlikely that he'll move here on a permanent deal.

    I agree and I think, based on what we've seen so far, that we would be foolish to allow Miku to turn into a benchwarmer.

    As sad as it may be, I honestly can't see him being anything other than that. It just seems like Lennon is doing a Levein and sticking with his favourites, there would have been no harm in giving Miku a chance at the weekend but instead he stuck with the same players who haven't been getting results and are running on empty. I was suprised he didn't play against Benfica actually, he would have provided the link up play we lacked in the midfield.

    Apologies if im repeating myself here but Miku is literally what people are asking for he has the technical ability and creativity we need. If he's not going to be used we should let him go back to Getafe where I assume his talents will be welcome.

    Don't get me wrong I'm not some superfan of his, I don't quite think he's as fantastic as some people made him out to be, but at the end of the day he's more than capable of playing for us regulary.
