    You'd think the guy was smoking 40 a day, nae energy, goes missing in games where you expect him to shine.

    I don’t know how he keeps getting started every game and on for 90 minutes.

    He’s obviously got quality and potential but I judge Ange for the way he’s managing him.

    Should play the deep role or nothing. Preferably the latter.

    Been * poor all season,this has to been the worst. Decent young player but seriously needs to step up. Can't make space for himself nor others and his passing/decision making are off the planet pish. I'd say drop him for a while but there is literally no other midfielders to take his place.

    Unless he adds fitness/speed to his game he’ll only ever be a good spl player

    I think he loos like Rogic sometimes the way he does not chase or seems lack of fitness but then produces some great passes and goals.

    I don't think he produces enough good passes to be worth carrying him through games. He was like a *, low-energy version of Ryan Christie today. Complete waste of a shirt.

    Guys like this should be an understudy to players of experience and proven quality. Another talented boy that is being relied upon as if he's a seasoned pro. Shocking management.

    AHH, so angry with this guy today. Right from the off you knew he was going to have a shocker. We need better than him.

    Well today and Thursday in fairness it was because we had * all attacking options on the bench. I mean today our attacking options off the bench were Johnston and that was it. But no question he has been very inconsistent and certainly nowhere near the levels he was at regularly last season.

    Turnbull was * though mate, not for the first time. It's clear he has some sort of fitness or athleticism issue that means he struggles at this level. You don't need to bring on an attacking player to improve the team, you just need to bring on someone that isn't completely jaded.

    It's Livingstone we were up against, the worst team in the league. Just a pair of fresh legs on 60 minutes to go at them. Ralston would've done more than Turnbull from 60 minutes on.

    We will have to agree to disagree on that one. I hear what your saying I just do not agree with your opinion on that one.

    Regardless though why we only had one attacking option on the bench in Johnston is a joke I think we can likely agree on that.

    He doesnt have the steel to play as a deep lying midfielder and for me he cant be played in the same starting XI as Rogic as the two are too similar and you sacrifice another midfielder who can offer something else.
