    Bernardo won't get a sniff, Brendan has made it very clear that he'll be getting the Nawrocki treatment this season

    Annoyed me second half when Nygren made a * of it and gave it to Cal and put him in bother. Cal then just shrugs his shoulders at him when really he should have been giving him pelters. He's losing a bit of balls these days and it's worrying.

    You might well be right. But Bernardo did start the last League Cup game and played quite well so maybe he will again next week against Partick Thistle.

    Poor again, but not as bad as he has been.

    If nothing else, he needs to receive and then turn with the ball at least sometimes.

    Sad to see him look a liabilty around our own bax all too often in past few years.

    Sad thing is Callum never was a defensive midfielder let alone a sweeper, not directly his fault that he has always been a bit of a liabilty trying to play as one. He would play in goal and not complain.

    A genuine play maker whos main abilty has been sacrificed, he was as good imo better than Tom Rogic or Matt O'Riley for examples .
    But shoe horned into a Broony replacement - when never was remotely that type or abilty for role .

    Easily as well. The other 2 doing nothing to help him, in fact the opposite to be honest.

    Something that's not been considered is he recently became a dad. For all the will in the world, having kids, twins at that will affect every aspect of your life. For someone who's life has probably been so regimented and focused up to that point it's bound to take a while to adjust
