    All of his weaknesses were prevelant today . Slow , Poor corners , slack in possesion . Better off playing higher up the park and shooting every time he gets it , that's his game . Today he was playing deeper and wider and he looked lost.

    OK that season he did score 1 goal but he still made around 12 assists

    He was * poor today but those using it to slaughter him as a player and his contribution to Celtic need to have a look at themselves. Clowns.

    He was rotten on Wednesday but today I think the pitch was a big factor, players on both teams were losing their feet constantly.

    They never seem to get the pitch right at Hampden.

    Who's using this game to 'slaughter' him?

    We're saying what we've been saying for a quite some time.

    I notice you took that personally when it wasn't aimed at anyone in particular...

    Commons' record for Celtic is excellent, if you think otherwise then it's because you have some other issue with him. He scores and creates plenty and has done since day one.

    Well you said 'those', while you didn't say my name it still concerns me.

    It is excellent, I'm not denying that. I'm saying that his overall play this season and before isn't good enough. He's far too slow, greedy, he loses the ball more than anyone, his first touch is poor, his set pieces are awful.

    I understand that his goals have been important in seasons gone by but he's just not good enough any more to justify being in the last starting 11.

    No worse than what is happening with Johansen . Guy has been poor for weeks and people are making excuse after excuse for him .

    In fairness he usually isn't in the starting lineup. Only reason he was today was because GMS and armstrong couldn't play.

    Commons should have went off for Zaluska. Forrest pace on the counter would have been very useful. Maybe fitness worries??

    * brutal wee fat diddy, I thought he was terrible midweek but understood he had to play as there was noone else today but dont know what the * happened that he was left on and Forrest subbed when Forrest was arguably our best player plus has the pace to break away.

    * poor today. Said at the time I didn't understand the decision to keep him on and take Forrest off.

    His overall play this season has ironically been better than any other season he has been a Celtic player thus making your point null and void.

    What would the score have been midweek had he not scored when he did?

    This level of abuse for a Celtic player, from a Celtic fan, absolutely embarrassing. Get a grip. :87:

    Very , very true . He has been moving the ball very quickly this season and looked very fluid in all round play compared to previous seasons .
