    Would you disagree that McGregor has been in the top 2-3 consistency wise in the squad over the past 12 months?

    He has been, Ntcham hasn't.

    I love McGregor as a player, but he hasn’t shown any consistency this season thus far.. it is early tho..

    Rogic, Ntcham, McGregor, Forrest and Edouard all struggling to get in to the season..and that’s a massive amount of misfiring creativity.

    The whole team has been * this season, only KT gets pass marks from me. Boyata since he came back.

    McGregor has been in our top 3 for 12 months. Ntcham really performs once a month.

    Aye Ntcham is about as consistent as McGregor was at his age..

    Ntcham is a far better talent, even at a few years younger.

    His talent isn't the problem, it's his consistency. Exact same mentality as his buddy Dembele, if either had McGregors attitude/constancy, they'd go a lot further in the game - That's my point.

    Someone of that talent shouldn't be dominating one week vs the huns, to be diabolical vs St Mirren and Rosenborg the next.

    Patience is needed, consistency is the most difficult thing for any young player to achieve..

    By the way, I'm not saying Ntcham is consistent in the slightest. He really isn't. Plays one good game then he's pish for the next 2. However I wouldn't say McGregor is the model of consistency either.

    Brown, Tierney and Forrest have been more consistent than him over the past 12 months. McGregor is more consistent than many, however I think that's more down to the other players being inconsistent, as opposed to McGregor being conistent...if that makes sense.

    He’s been out of form recently, needs to pick himself up. Top quality when he’s firing

    He needs dropped for a few games, been horrible outside of the huns game this season. I don't think his heads in it anymore.

    Would drop him altogether. Every game more just proves he isnt given his all since moussa got his move and he didnt.

    He seems to pick up for the Zombie games and then in Europe last season.

    Showed his class vs the zombie this season but looks a different player since Moussa left.

    Don’t be surprised if he hands in transfer request come January, or next summer can’t see him being here next season.

    Hung out to dry by Brendan in that 2nd half. Baffling man.

    He’s been poor since the Huns game and his attitude has been * in general since Moussa left.

    My midfield pairing would be Broony and Mulumbu for the foreseeable. Huge potential and big asset or not.

    No more fancy French boys please. They are a bunch of arrogant petulant wee *. If they had shown 1 * ounce of heart and professionalism we would be in a far, far better place this season. As it is, we are a * shambles.

    I despise modern pros. They are all self-entitled little fannies, who couldn't give a * about the supporters who pay their wages.
