    Not true at all. Statistically he is one of our better attacking players under Ange. Rogic wasnt/isnt an athletic player either.
    If he stays free of injury and set back he will prove to be a very valuable asset for us.

    Wasn't impressed at all today. Very slow to close down.

    Thought he was good, moves the ball forward really quickly and always finds space in the middle. He’s never going to be a pressing midfielder, doesn’t have the pace or energy.

    Main issue we have is playing Turnbull and O’Reilly together really limits our pressing game and ability to track back, that’s why Blackburn could counter so easily.

    True but we should get away with it domestically, however it will bit us in the * in Europe bigtime.

    I often struggle to see what others see. I've never hidden the fact that, although I do like him, I'd be happy to move him on if a bid of £11m came in, like was rumoured with West Ham. I do believe we can get a better all rounder, especially with DTs lack of pace and movement.

    However, I thought he was brilliant yesterday. I still think O'Riley is a class above and I do believe that our midfield 3 in the SPFL games should be McGregor, Hatate and O'Riley but Turnbull played well yesterday. Against decent opposition as well, which has to be taken into account. It's not like they were absolutely * last year. They finished top half of the championship and only missed out on the play offs by 5 or 6 points I think. JDT will have them in the mix for the play offs next year. Very smart and shrewd manager.

    An absolutely fantastic footballer who I think will be one of the first names on the team sheet in most games this season. Still feel he's got so much more to accomplish here. His ability is pretty frightning

    Based off nothing other than my own thoughts, if we sign this Michut I think it adds to the chance of Turnbull leaving on top of the other stuff I mentioned last week

    The game is too easy for this lad. Wonderful composure to slot that one home!

    Great play from Turnbull there. As said the game is too easy for him.

    An excellent wee player, would be guaranteed to start if we played with a 10, but he can fill the 8 role very well. Hopefully he stays fit for the entire season.

    The former.

    Opening day of the season at least. I think he deserves it.

    I cant really argue as I don't think there is a clear right answer between the 3. Hatate has been sensational in pre season so he leads the pack at the moment but Turnbull certainly deserves to be in contention. Hes a cracking player

    Excels in those positions when others seem to wilt. Could be our most composed finisher.
