    He's a decent central defender and has the ability on the ball to play from the back , no way should we be punting him .

    Took a great penalty. Played with some heart. Team formation doesn't allow.him to pass out the back so has no choice but to punt it to our 3 foot tall striker.

    He wasn't tested, he played against Kenny Miller I expected him to be comfortable.

    His distribution from the back was pretty bad, and I didn't like that he turned his back when they scored the 2nd. He's a squad player nothing more.

    Often gets slated for his distribution. Whilst firing high balls to a sub 6ft striker is not a great option, its a better option than giving the ball to Brown, Johansen or GMS at the minute.

    Got a lot of stick for his distribution yesterday but * me, the midfield were constantly hiding forcing him to fire it long and turn back at times. I'm not his biggest fan either but a lot of that was forced on him yesterday due to the cowards in front of him.

    Actually this is very true. Brown, Bitton and Johansen were disgraceful.

    Don't really think he had much option yesterday when Bitton was hiding

    Never lets anyone down at centre half. Make or break time on his contract.

    Thought he was good yesterday. There's no reason not to keep him on.

    tie him up. I'm actually content with Chuck, Jozo, Erik and Dede as our centre halfs going into next season.

    He was okay yesterday.

    Charlie, Erik, Tierney, Griffiths, Rogic and Gordon can at least say they showed up.

    I agree but I also think Roberts was trying his best to make things happen.

    His decision making was poor for the most part, and he REALLY had to * score that rebound.

    Aside from that, he looks promising.

    Not judging him too harshly yet, want to see how he performs over the next year.

    He was fine defensively yesterday but he fannies about on the wall way too much for my liking.

    I like him, but I've noticed what you've said there recently myself. To be fair, he's a ball playing defender, and those in front of him are hardly offering much for a pass either. This team is static as *. I'm sure if the team was more dynamic then Mulgrew would be more comfortable, as it is though, he should just get rid a bit more often than he has been.

    There are definitely a right few players who should be shown the door before him though.

    Mulgrew is a must keep for me, versatile and probably happy to play a rotation role get him signed up

    Would put Mulgrew alongside Sviatchenko at CB every week, Boyata can * off.
