    Can any mods sort this into a vote and explain ,as ive no got a clue how to ,
    Basically, lustig or gamboa ,* me off reading news feeds saying "we want lustig dropped for gamboa's inclusion ,apparently he didnt have the best game v saints ,but im reading * like this after 1 game in about 6 month or more , for me its lustig and it should not even be a debate .
    Lustig 7.5 out of 10
    Gamboa 5.5 out of 10 , i feel bought as a squad filler to allow lustig a break or for injury ,and even then has strugled to make the team ,ralston will offer more of a challenge to lustig .

    Lustig, between those two. Don't really think it's up for debate.

    I'd like to see Gamboa given a run in the team.

    Really though I think we need to look at improving that position in the summer.

    Yeah this sums it up for me.

    If Lustig is our first choice right back next season then I'll be very disappointed.

    Based on nothing other than lustigs performances this year, Gamboa.

    No poll option for big Tony 'Tank' Ralston?

    Tough to have an opinion on it because its clear that Rodgers rates Lustig. Much like the GK situation, we all seem to think the position needs upgrading but Rodgers doesnt look to have the same sentiment.

    I've said time and again that Gamboa should get an extended run but its never going to happen. Would like Ralston to get a chance when he's fit, since it does seem like Rodgers holds him in high regard.

    Lustig and Gordon should be being ushered out the starting 11 sooner than later.

    Someone new but Gamboa if needed purely because he hasn't played that much and should be given one proper chance in the team while he's here. Don't even rate him that much but he's shown glimpses.

    Lustig is gone to * completely at this point. Worst player on the park last Thursday even when everyone else played out there skin he was pish.

    3-5-2 is the way forward when compper is fit and wee jamesy on the right side

    Hendry started off as a right winger before becoming a Defender. I think he would do a great job at right back for us, mentioned this is in signing thread also I think.

    No keen on the 352. Too susceptible to the counter and our defence is pish. Although, we tend to convert to 3 at the back in domestic games as KT is usually so far up! Defo not for Europe. Whole back line barring KT is needin sorted, never mind just a new RB.

    Lustig has been horrific on more than one occasion this season. His performance v Sevco on the 30th was laughably bad.

    Gamboa hasn't really had a sniff but at this point deserves a chance to show he's a better option.
