    Scott Brown should give him a shout.

    Not that I disagreed with McGregor unfurling the flag this season, would have loved someone like Scotty up here to do it. Deserved a very large send off and that was taken away from him.

    I'm kind of shocked no other SPFL clubs have came in for him, feel like he could still do a job for the likes of Hearts/Aberdeen.

    Loved him when he was here, but he was quite bad in the end imo.

    He still had a good turnout in his last season, didn't he? 17 goals if I remember correctly, just his performances weren't as flashy as before. He would have brought us more joy in the end of his time here if he would have been treated correctly by the club. Him not getting as much game time had more to do with Lawwell trying to force him out I think. And Lennon being his puppet.

    We were terrible with one of the worst managers going.

    Wasn’t a shock that players instantly regressed.

    That's true. Can't argue with that

    He got dropped under Rodgers before Lenny took over. Biggest drop of performance I’ve seen from a player from first season, to second to third.

    First season his work rate was insane, he made run after run whether he thought he would get the ball or not and that made us better as a team because we got a lot of space out of it. His aggression for pressing was unreal.

    2nd season he realised he could post similar numbers goals and assists without that same effort.

    3rd season guys realised he was weak and static and nullified it.

    Don’t think he meant that at all, if we had guys genuinely threatening his position up until he was too poor and just needed dropped he probably would have kept that level up.

    Was great for us, especially that first season..

    Got sussed and couldn't really adapt after that to what he was before..

    Can vaguely remember him being told to focus on getting in the box rather than being a winger that took his man on. Something like that anyway..

    Found him majorly frustrating towards the end. Didn't want him in the side..

    For me it wasn’t getting sussed, he stopped working as hard. First season his work rate was unreal, run after run, regardless of if he was getting a pass or no. Would drag defenders everwhere. Second season he realised he’d still score and assist without working that hard, 3rd season and when he got dropped was because he hugged the touchline, done the same things over and over and, well aye he got sussed then to be fair, but it was down to him not doing the same things rather than every other team figuring out what he was doing at his best.

    He got dropped under Rodgers at first, Lennon didn’t have anytime for him but it wasn’t him he was playing under to lose his place.

    By that point, a lot of the team was like that as well though.

    Probably did stop working as hard but he couldn't go by a man anymore..

    Was easily thwarted for a long time and has no skill or anything to do anything else. Relied on close, quick footwork and his pace to knock it by his man or get in behind. He'd been found out/lost his touch majorly..
