    He's been top, top class since Udinese and was good before that. Keep it up Fraser and Lenny get him signed! :50:

    He's been decent lately I'll admit but he's still no Boruc

    At the start of the season i thought he was our weak link but now i think we should do everything we can to sign him. He has played a bit part in the current win streak we are on.

    He makes far too many mistakes, even last night he just kept spilling the ball infrot of him from simple shots.

    I've not been his biggest fan, but he's shown he's a good keeper & is looking better each game.

    Think we've got an agreed fee on him for £2m.

    I'd like to see us sign him permanent in the summer.

    Agree but the conditions were a nightmare for the keepers last night

    another good performance by the big man didn't have much to do but kept his concentration and looked like a far superior keeper compared to the beast at the opposite end who couldn't keep hold of a shot and ran out and got skint by hooper very similar to sammy last year when he went round him

    Player reborn since the penalty save. Over the line or not the save last night was world class.

    And yet that's the most commanding I have seen Big Fraser. He collected all most every cross/corner.

    Caught anything that came near him, shots etc.

    Compare that to the other end of the pitch, in all Old Firm matches they have played on opposing sides thats a big difference.

    Fraz has made 1 mistake (sending off) where Naismith milked it like *, in that time McGregor has let in a shocker from El Kid, ran out and sold a goal from Samaras, let a weak right footed shot into the middle of the net in from Commons and his display last night.

    He's mistake prone as * but has fantastic reflexes. Forster is more steady anyway.

    I love Fraser. His handling last night was decent, and is normally good. For a big guy, he gets down quickly an has excellent reflexes. Isn't fazed by the big games, and his distribution, I.e those bizarre unique throws, are fantastic! My favourite thing about him! Serious man love for Forster.

    The keeper coaching staff must of focused him on coming of his line in training. It has paid off as he is becoming a vastly improving keeper. He will only get better abd 2m price tag will be a steal as he is still so young.

    McGregor is poor coming off his line one on one, poor at collecting crosses and poor with shots from 20+ yards.

    He only excels at close range headers/shots.

    If he played for us he'd get slaughtered.

    He suits the huns defensive style were he has the defence sitting on his goal line near enough, especially in big games like against us and Europe.

    Can you recall McGregor ever saving a one on one? he runs out like a donkey as hes hopeless at it. All his best saves are from headers near enough from 6 yards out that are within 3 yards of him as he has quick reflexes.

    It doesnt make a good keeper.

    He has competley changed my mind over him, I think he is an excellent goalkeeper now.

    Said all along he was a good keeper, his only real weakness is his kicking, but that seems to be down to nerves.
