    Defence is a mess, midfield non exsistent, toothless up front, at times utd look the better team.

    How many times have we passed it straight to them under zero pressure ? Ridiculous.

    Ajeti just doesn't have the pace to play under these tactics. Rogic is so predictable that he loses the ball far too easy. Montgomery canny pass a ball. Midfield is far too open. Defence is a riot again.

    But apart from that ..... :frown:

    I've been saying since he was appointed, he needs to adapt. It's not rocket science, but apparently he doesn't do adapting. It's mental.

    Don't find the scoreline or performance particularly surprising.

    That's the worst starting XI and subs bench I've seen in 25 years.

    Pretty lousy. Soft goal to concede too. Ralston was beaten far too easily.

    Have we ever had a more threadbare squad? It really does confuse me how those in charge could look at the depth of this team and think that what we had was enough. Like they were totally oblivious to the fact that injuries happen.

    He is walking around doing * all, the players don't trust him with the ball, and no fuking wonder, I get he needs to get games to get fit but we can't afford to be a man down.

    For those who are in love.....
    This is a seriously poor side..

    That midfield trio offers nothing as a defensive unit and so unbelievably slow together..

    Ajeti. This guy just won't do. Misses chances. Never looks overly convincing. He had two lay offs earlier and one of them he was at the corner flag and overhit it to the halfway line :90:

    Montgomery has came on instead of Scales and managed to give it away almost constantly..

    Jota and Abada have looked our real threats..

    Turnbull here and there. Was unlucky with that off the bar..

    We're just atrocious defensively and United have zipped it about well. That Finnish winger looks good and their central midfield has broken with ease because Turnbull and Rogic can't get back..

    Probably lucky no to concede a penalty as well..

    Another injury as well and this side needs some serious luck to go on a run..

    Massive half coming up. Think we'll shade it but very concerning..

    He has been fouled every time he has been on the ball and quite a few times late off it as well. It's blatant and nothing is being done about it, so it's not surprising his passing hasn't been great.

    Starfelt showed poor control but * me Rogic fairly smashed it at him..

    Was a definite pen tho.

    So you want Ajeti to play like Kyogo when Ajeti has no pace? You want McCarthy to play like CalMac when he has no pace and doesnt drive forward. Yes Ange has been unlucky having so many players out but he has to change it to suit the players.

    This has got a draw written all over it. We’ll likely do everything but score. Frustrate the life out of ye, this carry on. Leverkusen will pump us if we don’t get some momentum from these home fixtures.

    Utd have adapted well, stopped us playing our game, yet we don't change it up. Midfield three is slow. It's tough viewing the now.

    For me, McCarthy is a wasted jersey, much like brown was in these sort of domestic games as well.

    Offers nothing to the side in terms of dictating the game and getting the flow going forward.

    We have a RB playing at LB who then gets injured, we bring on a Left Winger when we have a LB (Scales) on the bench? Baffling, fit enough for the bench then you are fit enough to play.

    Have to agree. Very underwhelmed by from what I’ve seen so far from him.

    The injuries aren’t bad luck, something is blatantly wrong at Lennoxtown.
