Matt O'Riley

I thought he played quite well today for most of the game. Got a good assist and shows good composure on the ball when being pressed.

Given the concern before the game I think he can be happy with his performance.

 

Thought he was far better in the second half before coming off. Got stuck in and was far more involved.

 

He done ok in the end.

But he's been playing at a level that shouldn't be too difficult to replace.

The way we have missed Hatate and McGregor at times this season says it all.

O'Riley sure enough stood in and done well enough... but it sounds harsh to say, but we need more than "done well enough"

We need guys like Hatate who constantly striving to be better and is evident in how vital they become to our starting 11 over time

 

Like his season he was very inconsistent but he done the right things at the right times.

 

There is a brilliant player in there but he is not producing it consistently this season.

 

He was immense, one of few today who done everything right. Him and Calmac in there are the only reason we won that game

 

I thought he was great today, they struggled to get near him.

 

He always performs v them.

 

I have no idea what any of you are watching if you think he has had a good game. Ever since one of the European games where we were outclassed, he looks like he has lost total confidence in himself. His obvious physical limitations are no longer countered by his gallous passing, composure and vision - all the things that made him stand out in his first season.

I think he is an absolute shadow of himself and would shed no tears to see him sold asap.

 

Thought he was good today tbh.

Mooy was the real let down in midfield.

Funny cause I thought before the game started it would be the opposite.

 

this foul lading to their equaliser was avoidable.

 

Almost everything right*
Cos that was * aye lol


He always has a big effect on the games agaisnt them, think very few that have passed him by.

 

I thought he was our best midfielder , he got stuck in and was all over the pitch as well as a great bit of play and assist for Kyogo.

His foul did lead to 1-1 but I feel Hart should be saving that as it's nowhere near the top corner.

 

Bizarre, going to have to rewatch, I thought he was poor again Not as bad as Mooy or maeda but still poor. The midfield as a unit were the reason we were getting bogged down., not enough movement and slack passing.

Granted, he done well with the assist.

 

Genuinely baffled anycunt thinks he didn’t play well, I was expecting this thread to be full of hunners of praise

 

Some folk get stuck on a narrative and refuse to acknowledge what’s actually happening in front of them. He’s had a much better season than has been made out in recent weeks, even if he has been in poor form before today.

 

Said that last week as well mate, think that’s 12 assists this season now, stepped in for Callum McGregor and done well, started the season very well.

Moved back up the pitch and had a wee wobble and Mooys form has rightly kept him out. He’s had some bad games., some average ones but overall he’s had a pretty good season

 

Decent game I thought. Wasn't spectacular but did pretty well in there, obviously set up the first as well.
