    Think every single one of our players did. Bit of proper management he’d have been good.

    He was next-level in his headless chickeness. It was unreal at times and amazing how it was ignored.

    Sometimes it was like we’d work the ball up the park and space would open on the left and when McGregor would look up to play him in he’s somehow be in midfield or upfront like a disorganised game of 7s.

    The way he kept playing like that throughout his time here and the way it was ignored was the biggest indicator that no serious coaching was being done. There can’t be any suggestion that Lennon, Kennedy or Strachan knew what they were doing while that kept happening and he kept playing.

    I wouldn’t spend the money on him if I’m being honest. It was a panic loan of a player that wasn’t anything special and we’d be hoping for huge improvement with good coaching. Resigning him would just be narrow vision. The fact is we should’ve been looking for a new LB since Bolingoli flopped in his first season, but years later we’re still suggesting Laxalt, Hickey or give Taylor/Bolingoli another chance.

    Chronic.
