    I’m clearly a fan bhoy but I thought he was absolutely * amazing yesterday.

    His strength on the ball, his touch, his passing, his willing running, his composure, his energy all absolutely first class.

    He is a brilliant footballer and I’ll say it again, his lack of Scotland caps is a sad indictment of the nick of this place.

    He's deceptively quick as well, i've only noticed recently but he pretty much does anyone for pace that he comes up against. Tavernier is probably one of the huns fastest players if not
    fastest but McGregor always beats him for pace.

    He's went up a level allround this season, probably grown in confidence, fitter, stronger, quicker. The way he shields the ball, uses his body and turns * has improved to near Ntcham and Rogic levels as well.

    Just seen this on twitter:

    Media - "The manager says you're his Phillipp Lahm - what player would you prefer to be compared with?"
    McGregor - "Tom Rogic"

    I really hope he did say that :56::56:

    Outstanding again. Another who has been coming up trumps in the big games for us.

    He uses the ball so well, always makes himself available for a pass and his movement is really clever. On top of that, he is a really intelligent 'presser' (if that's a term) of the ball.

    He was a winger for years, he’s quick and he has a trick in him as well.

    You see when he’s confident how good he really is.

    Found more consistency in his game this season he seems to link up well with Rogic looks like he is enjoying his football at the moment

    Great wee player that can cover loads of positions, so he is clearly going to be in Brendan’s plans for that very reason. Some finish today and very much settled us down.
