    Like everyone I'd like to see more, but he doesn't look like a natural DM, McGregor was deeper than him when he came on.

    His passing looked accurate tho..

    I'd like to see him in a 4-3-3

    4 at the back we don’t need to be that deep especially McGregor if anything it’s too many cooks spoil the broth

    I’d like to see someone in the media question Lennon on why he hasn’t had more game time

    The thing I’ve noticed when he’s played, albeit very little is he passes forward accurately, something our current mids fail to do often.

    Absolute disgrace that this guy cannot get some game time in a dead rubber game, we all know what Brown and Nicham can (and cant) do but lets see this guy.

    In all seriousness, it is striking to see one of our midfielders play a forward pass quickly and purposefully.

    (Soro and Turnbull happen to be excellent at moving the ball forward quickly and purposefully, but Brown needs game time.)

    Brown did ping one lovely ball over the top to young Jerry in first half but most other balls were swift passes back ways. Got to be time to give Soro and Turnbull game time.

    Would love to see that team, although I'd prefer to give turnbull a few games ahead of Christie to try and get him into a rhythm. Up front we have the three you mention, plus Ajeti, Christie, even Klimala. But we all know it ain't goanny happen.

    There is absolutely zero that suggests why he shouldn't play more instead of Brown apart from our "manager" being * at his job.

    Imagine with some coaching, confidence and regular game time how much he could improve and help the first 11.

    Actually, apply that to all the squad. Infuriating.

    It's just like the WGS days, refuses to make changes to the team for bizarre reasons, but certainly in his case it was to spite the fans and show who is in charge, wee man syndrome (apologies to any midgets on here :35:). What is the point in spending millions on young good players but not giving them a chance to prove themselves ? Soro has been here a year or thereabouts, he's got to be thinking what do I have to do to get myself some decent game time here, can't be good for his "confidence", like Barky says, maybe change his name, get a buzzcut an some tattoos.

    I’d like to see someone in the media question Lennon on his recent performances, results, and general management of the team and ask him does he think 2 wins in 11 with 27 goals conceded is acceptable for any manager let alone a Celtic one

    "It's a bad moment for us but we are all working hard together to turn it around" then we proceed to make the same mistakes in the next game
