    He doesn’t test the keeper though.

    I don’t have an issue with him playing. I have an issue with his final product, his greediness and the amount of possession that goes to waste through him.

    He’s a good player, but he has to work on his decision making.

    Only thing I want to be critical of was his cut back. If he uses his right foot there eloynoussi taps it in.

    That's the difference and why I still dont believe he is an out and out creator/10 type. I would agree with the above in that his decision making is poor.

    Cant blame him for being played out of position.

    I think he's as important a player as any in the squad personally, but he needs to be utilised correctly. Playing him out of position is just wasteful. His effort is undeniable, but he needs to be in the right place. We weren't forced into last night's set up, which is the most unforgivable and frustrating aspect.

    Tbf to Christie, we * moan when we try to walk the ball into the net too, about time people tried having a dig

    Of course those efforts need to improve though

    Tries to be the main man all the time which is admirable in a way but he needs to trust in the quality of player around him more. A bit of arrogance and swagger in a footballer is good but he's just trying to do too much and he favours the flashy one touch pass or backheel over the correct play a lot of the time just to make himself look good.

    Moi is a great example for him, a player with excellent technique and ability but plays as part of the team and does the simple things well.

    Absolutely tireless again today & wherever he plays he gives 100%. His contribution towards the 2nd goal was superb. Such an admirable attitude. Well done Ryan.

    Aye that was a superb pass to Ajer and he played a cracker in to Klimala as well who just missed it..

    His first touch can be really poor and he can be far too greedy. Needs to sort his set pieces out also. Because he scored at Rugby Park he's hitting everything and again today, was miles over the bar..

    No shock when he dropped in to midfield and played properly (no being greedy or being fancy), he was much better..

    One the ball back countless time today...

    His delivery is absolutely pish at time tho, we’ll in fact the majority of the time.

    Hopefully, it’s last time we see him as a ST.

    Tries to do too much himself at times but he must have about 4 lungs the amount of running he does. Must be a nightmare to play against. I think he's been asked to get a few shots from distance away in games and make things happen especially against packed defences - it's not just him

    Definitely better further back. He has unbelievable stamina and is definitely suited more as a box to box midfielder than a 10.

    Lads, can we be surprised when someone that isn't a striker gets played as a lone striker they act like the stereotype of that role - tries to be the main man, and takes on all the shots. When he plays as a advanced midfielder, his natural role, he's brilliant and gels well.
    His issues in the last couple of games lie with lenny not using him right, not the player. Personally I rate him very highly, and think he's developed very well from the scrawny kid that joined us.

    Just play the * strikers as strikers, and let him be an engine in the middle

    His play leading to Ajeti's goal was brilliant. He just refused to let Motherwell have it, a stunning pass to Ajer who in turn gave a beautiful ball into Ajeti.
