    His passing from the back was phenomenal last night. Found Christie for fun.

    I actually really like him as a CB. Admittedly I wouldn't want him there all season but he's much more suited to it than I expected.

    Got to be in contention for Sunday after last night! Excellent having players that can keep possession at the back. Plays a massive part when it comes to controlling the game!

    Good lad, doing well at the moment but I wouldn't have him anywhere near the defence on Sunday.

    He was better than Jullien last night for me. Feel like hes maybe not getting enough credit for when he steps in.

    Shouldn't be anywhere near the starting line-up on Sunday. He does well in games that he gets time on the ball to pick passes and that's not going to be the case against the Tributes.

    The half haircut hombre will be chasing him down constantly, kicking, elbowing, the lot and that's when Bitton goes into his shell.

    We should've had a 4th CB in long before now.

    I like him but he gets turned to many times in defence. Should be used in midfield when brown is rested.

    He was a weak link last night. On the ball he's fine but he loses his man too easily for a centre half. He'll get roasted against a team like Lazio.

    We need to offer this man another contract. Been great since coming back from injury.

    Was great today, daft to run for that ball and get injured.

    Was gutted for him with that injury, he was tremendous today. Brilliant foil for big jullien.

    Felt sorry him when he went off, he looked absolutely gutted (although I suppose that could’ve just been his injury).

    He was absolutely strolling it today as well, easily one of his most assured performances at CB. While he’s not a starter when we’re at full fitness, he’s a good hand to have around.

    Hans down best performance in this position I've seen from Nir. As said above strolled it. Fair play cus the fella has been bit part in last wee while so to do that when your called on is * superb.
