    aye agree. if rogic stays fit (BIG ask :) that midfield could be so class. McGregor at the pivot makes the team move so much quicker and Rogic and Christie will both thrive at the faster pace. But can't see Lenny dropping broony

    Rogic easily.

    Just his fitness is a pain in the *.

    Rogic has been unlucky with injuries of the last season or two hopefully he gets back to his best this season

    Christie seems to be more consistent but when Tam goes on them mazy runs with the ball glutton his feet and unleashes a shot that goes in the back of the net pure bliss but it doesn’t happen often enough .

    Rogic.

    He has scored some insanely skillful and important goals for us.

    Christie is more akin to Armstrong, lots of energy and grit and ultimately a good midfielder (currently in great form).

    But rogic is a silky player, don't see many players hold the ball up or roll it under their feet as comfortably as him. Love watching him play football besides he's dug us out a few holes single handedly.

    Christie for me he gives our midfield the energy thats needed . On his day no one can touch Rogic but sadly those days are few and far between

    Rogic on his game is blistering, so skillful. Christie is a serious workhorse however. Not made up my mind, yet.

    Christie is a Central midfielder for me where as Rogic is a number 10, Christies natural energy and box to box running makes him an ideal central mid for me and thats his best position imo. Christie can play number 10 a lot better than Rogic can play CM however I think Rogic is our best player when on form (which lately hasn't been a lot) so he would be my starting pick more a less every time as long as he was fully fit and in the number 10 position, would happily have Christie behind him in CM.

    It's a good problem to have and it doesn't need to be one or the other, we played our best stuff last season with both in same side. Hopefully Tam is fit and available to turn it on like we know he can this season. Christie is undroppable at the moment though.

    Poll is gonna be biased due to the fact Rogic hasn’t kicked a ball for us in ages and Christie is on very good form.

    Let’s compare them both at their best. The two of them are a joy when played together as we saw briefly last season

    Gone for Christie in the end, he brings real energy.

    That’s the thing exactly. They complement each other.

    Poor players can bring you that, shouldn’t be a yard stick.

    I agree with that, but when Christie plays in the ten role it means we press much higher up. He has the freedom to chase and harry further up and I think it lifts the whole team and when we are at home it lifts the crowd. I think that's why Lenny likes him in that role.

    Agreed.
    Should have said as well as all his other attributes and skills, his speed, his eye for a goal, and the way he celebrates when he scores.

    Given how many games we play I think both are among our best players and vital to the team. I think there are many league games where if both are fit they both can start With a chance then to give Brown some rests. But either way 2 superb players for us who will hopefully be fully fit and able to play at their best the whole season this season unlike last year which was almost a lost season for Rogic with his injury issues especially.
