    Highest paid player at the club, not even a first team regular now and flatters to deceive the majority of the games he either comes on or starts.

    I think he's too predictable, the one time he went down the line he caused more problems than all the times cutting inside.

    He only plays well when KT is behind and doing a power of work up and down the wing, that frees him up to go in the channels. Thing is every team knew exactly what he’d do after his first season here so knew how to defend against him, then his form fecked off at the same time.

    He never really stepped up in Europe for us either, Anderlecht away last season is the only good performance I remember of his.

    I actually thought he was effective last night. Hard when there’s 10 men behind the ball. Just needs to go to the by line more.

    Didn’t know that. Would have guessed Brown.


    Played in 5 CL qualification games so far. Hardly a fringe player.

    Been fine so far this season.

    He done his job. Dragged a man out, left space for ntcham. Near the end went the byline, nearly got there. No complaints. I think every * expects him to run at a man every time.

    So six pages ago ‘Great to see him playing so well again!’ ‘Looking like the player of old’...

    Now ‘He’s pish, get him tae *’..

    One of the few pass marks for me today, faded a bit in the second half but was lively and causing problems.

    Had a few good moments, some good movement and play but agree, he faded.

    Needs to be right out on the touchline , we need to stretch teams by having our wingers right out wide. He recieves it back to goal, inside of the pitch and can do very little with it. Have him and KT had a falling out because they don't play off each other in the same way anymore.

    It's unbelievable how ineffective he has become compared to how he was in his first season here. I actually hate seeing him in the team now, he's deteriorated that much.

    I'm a big critic but I thought he did well today tbh. Looked a bit sharper, was more involved than usual, more willing to try to beat a player.

    Hope he continues with that.

    Sometimes in management you have to be ruthless, i think we should've looked to get rid in the summer and try and replace with a player who would have the same zest and enthusiasm as Scotty first did when he arrived.
