    He's a midfielder who's played a few years at CB, so still a lot to learn, very young.

    Still think he could do a job in midfield, his runs are terrific.

    Iv backed him for quite a while but this season his form has been erratic for me.

    having watched him, he gets caught under the ball and out of position from long balls far too much.. he always seems to be ahead of Julien instead of alongside him when a long ball is played.

    tonight i thought he looked very shaky and short of confidence. Played quite a few miss placed passes also

    Some of his defending was poor last night.
    Really needs to up his game, keep the focus.

    Looks half the player when in a back 3, especially when on the left of that 3. It seems to mess up his positioning and he looks unsure what to do. Really struggled last night against modest opposition and personally I think we should revert to a back 4 ASAP. We seem far more confident and defensively solid that way.

    He is beginning to remind me of Alice the Goon from Popeye, Olive's mate

    This is not good.

    He's meant to be a solid viking *. Get a grip Kris and knuckle doon

    I think I’d try Ajer in the middle of the 3 and Jullien to the left, both have been far to sloppy and shaky at the back this year.

    When elhamed and Bitton are both fit i'd be tempted to drop both Jozo and Ajer for a couple of games and give them a run.

    We should sign a proper left sided centre-half. Ajer, Bitton, Jullien and probably Elhamed since he plays right-back all prefer to play on the right. So does Jozo but he should be punted.

    We only swapped Jullien and Ajer sides after Jullien looked ropey on his first couple of games but Ajer also plays better on the right.

    His best games have been at right back this season.
    it would make sense to me, to have him on the right of three centre backs
    Moving out to the right and supporting Forrest on the right with his pace.

    Maybe this is another one Rodgers' ego got wrong. Thinking its best to convert a promising central midfielder into a centre back before trying him in his preferred position first.
    The * thought Ralston was the next Danny McGrain and Hendry was champions league quality too.

    Hasn’t been brilliant last couple of months. He’s certainly reliable but also too many lapses of concentration and it’s his age but he needs to zone in on what’s going on around him and read the game better. Would be out of the starting 11 if we had options.

    I'd be on the lookout for a left sided centre half on a free out there..

    Short term fix as he can't be trusted....along with Jozo..

    Can't see there being any centre backs being without a club that aren't pish. Think the big man is a good player, think concentration is his problem.

    Must be one out there who isn't a total liability once a game.....like he's been for a good bit..

    I'm sick of him just now. Rate him massively but he's been a joke for ages. Passing is overrated. As bad as I've ever seen in the air for a Celtic centre half. Player's go by him too easy. He gets dragged out of position too much. He gets touch tight too much..

    He looks like his head is elsewhere..

    Which is very worrying in itself bud..

    See if he was hands up 'I * up'...you'd expect him to come through a bad patch..

    He's moaning and blaming * for his own mistakes/deficiencies though. He'll never learn with that rank attitude..
