    cant believe what im reading here.

    he played really well last night other than the goal, which is mainly lustig fault.
    ajer and hendry both played well.

    that cross should never have came into the box but lustigs lazy defending let it happen then the way ajer left it he clearly got a call to leave it which was his only mistake off the night and even then you could argue one of our midfield should have followed the strikers run into the box

    Come on now. Their striker humiliated our defence all night. Took Brown coming back and helping them to stop the guy, otherwise he would still be running about with the ball as we speak.

    I dont think he had a particularly bad game. He won nearly everything in thr air vs their striker.

    Made one crucial error in letting the ball run across him and was punished for it.
    I dont hold it against him because he has been dynamite for us, even despite his young age. He will learn from nights like these.

    Its easy to point the finger at the defence but it should be remembered that we got the ball into a lot of dangerous positions but we were unable to score more.

    He had a bad game with one major mistake (wouldn't have happened if Lustig wasn't a *) and people are massively overreacting. He's been great since he came in and will only get better, especially playing next to a better partner. Rodgers said last week he was destined for the top so he is clearly rated very highly. Nobody would be mentioning the mistake if the attackers scored 1 or 2 of the million chances they had.

    Ajer played well but the goal was his fault. He should have prevented that ball running across him. He was close enough to reach it.

    Lustig showed the winger to the by line and unfortunately he was still able to get the cross away.

    There would have been no call to leave it. Gordon wasnt getting there and the potential for danger was far too high in letting the ball run across the face of goal.

    Hendry was okay defensively but lacks conviction on the ball. Needs to improve on his decision making and distribution.

    In fairness to him he is young and has shown good potential he's always going to be better playing next to someone with a bit more experience and attributes that compliments his game not whatever the * it is he is next to just now

    Needs an experienced partner beside him, has all the potential in the world but he’s beside a guy that would look out of place at Rab Roy.

    Or does he escape the blame for that goal I assume?

    Needs help he's a young guy still prone to error and he goes to ground too easily imo so much pressure on him when you think who he has to play with.

    Solid, again needs a big solid experienced player next to him, he's only been playing center half for a year, looks miles ahead of Hendry.

    Gets away with so much for the simple fact everyone is waiting on Hendry’s next * up.

    He’s been at fault for a few goals this season already.

    Bad decision to dive in at their goal.

    Agree with the majority that he needs an experienced partner back there.

    Starting to get on my * tbh

    I do prefer him to Hendry and am generally more tolerant of him but he does make schoolboy errors.

    Maybe he would be better with a different partner I don't know.

    He needs a more experienced partner next to him. He’s trying to be a leader at the back and it’s not gelping him at all

    We forget as well, he is pretty much untested in a 2 at the back, he's probably only played in one 20 times before.

    Mostly for us he has only played in the centre of a back 3 which is a really simple role and probably the easiest position to play in a game of football.

    I feel sorry for Ajer having to play alongside that absolute donkey.

    He’s made some mistakes but he’s light years ahead of Hendry. Ajer needs an experienced head next to him. He’s still very young and learning the position.
