    His confidence has been dented bigtime. He's a lot better player than what we have seen so far. He has proven that over the years. I still feel he will show us that good side. The back 4 will suit his style. Back 3 is a NO NO for Shane.

    To be fair, nobody in that back line looks like they know where they are supposed to be or what they are supposed to be doing.

    Ajer is constantly getting caught out from set pieces and incapable of heading a ball.

    Jullien gets bullied off guys with a bit of bulk.

    Duffy is slow as *, but I still think in a well organised back 4 he gives us what we lacking and next to Jullien I think he'd be okay. He offers a lot more from set pieces at both ends than any other defender we have.

    He's always been decent when I've watched him playing for the Republic, gets in the way of everything.

    I don't think I could write off any of the players at the minute, given the coaching staff.

    Shocking, 2 games in a row.

    Getting drawn to the ball for the 3rd is schoolboy not experienced captain of your country stuff.

    A massive anti climax so far, not completely writing him off but he needs to do so much more than he currently is.

    Been involved and at fault for our last 5 goals imo. Looks a terrible bit of business so far.

    Love him for his ability to clatter a player, but utterly woeful as an actual football player.

    Should consider a change in profession

    Quite * isn’t he. Thank * it’s only a loan. Sooner Jullien is back the better.

    painfully slow with poor instincts. Nothing we can do to change those things, but we can tell him to stop playing the ball out from the back because it's not in his skillset.
