    He doesn’t suit our style of play, he is a defender first and foremost, where as at us he’s being asked to push on and beat a man he’s not that type of player.

    I don't like he's being made a scapegoat, he played ok last night compared to one or two others.

    This guy doesn’t hide and always gives 100%

    he also seems delighted to play for the jersey

    there is obvious room for improvement and he will get caught out for lack of height

    doesn’t deserve the stick he gets

    Certainly seems to be the new go to guy when folk want to moan about something, people can't wait to get a dig in on a match thread. Actually thought he was one of the better ones last night.

    Can see he's trying. Just wished he'd stop running 40 yards with the ball only to then turn and pass it back everytime

    And I can't really fault Christie. Sometimes we'll go through patches when we don't play well as a team, so it's difficult for any player to stand out as having a good game, especially getting played out of position. So long as the effort is there we can always work on things going wrong and things will click, and Christie works as hard as any player I've seen.

    And despite the poor form across the board, has been one of the only ones to provide the cutting edge.

    Imperative we sign a LB, Taylor should be used as back up, not first choice.

    Or play Forrest on 1 wing and frimpong on the other. Taylor might be ok in a back 4 but he offers nothing as a wing back.

    Another game where he gave a player a chance on a plate. Did well.

    The difference when we add a bit of pace down his side us frightening..

    His first touch is poor. He's excruciatingly weak. He's targeted down his side. He's as slow as any full back I can remember..

    Should've had an assist though..

    He has become the whipping boy but there’s a reason for that.

    Agree but i think his lack of quality really is hard to ignore within the team, the guy tries his best but dosen't have the ability that's needed for the way we play.
