    When did i state he was better that Rodgers?

    And you should give a * that he stepped up,no * else would or could at that time.

    Regardless of his desicions tonight or last 2 weeks,hes been a good manager for us up here,Trebles come to mind?

    He's come away looking like a complete idiot and made it worse by deflecting to the players. Even if it's true, don't say it. Made an embarrassing night even worse.

    Contradicts himself though he blames the defence the. Goes to say we made a bucket load of chances ..... that were not scored because he chose to not okay a striker

    So it was 1-1 in a must win CL qualifier and our manager was thinking:

    "...you know, we were in control, to the point that I was even going to bring Ajeti on, give him 15-20 minutes"

    *. So it wasn't even going to be a tactical move to get a * striker on when we needed a winning goal?! Just a token gesture to give the lad game time, in a * CL qualifier we simply had to win?!

    He is havering so much pish.

    His comments about Ajeti and Klimala both not been fit are laughable.

    In order to make the squad you have to be up to a certain standard of fitness.

    No reason they couldn’t have played 25-30 mins each, if not there is serious issues. However my spidey senses tell me that Lenny is a plonker.

    Surely to * they wouldn't offload to this extent. Edouard and Rogic aye a can see it, Boli I don't give a * about, Ntcham and Christie do seem to want away going by rumours only but no chance we would replace like for like either of them.

    Who thought that when Lennon fielded no striker or waited until the 78th min to throw one on that that wouldn't be his worst decision of the night?

    93 shots in 4 games against Hamitlon, Kilmarnock, Dundee Utd and Ferencvaros and only 8 goals, conceded 4 goals ourselves from 27 shots.

    Nearly twice as many shots to score a goal than we need against us to concede. Woeful start to the season, struggling badly to create or be in place to take chances and then gifting things at the other end.

    I think it's sell now or get peanuts next year. None will sign extensions.

    Exactly I'm not saying he'd have came in and scored any more goals than Christie but the lad has shown enough in cameos and clearly in his work ethic to merit a chance, especially when he's the fittest of all our strikers.

    Didn't even throw him on for the last half hour. Can't get my head round it.

    His interview after the match is of a man who knows he's deep in trouble. To lose a game and see the game easier than he thought is laughable and disrespectful.

    The attack on the players is worrying. I've never thought Lennon was that great a tactician, but if he's also lost his players motivation then he's lost everything.

    We can't keep being humiliated by teams we should be winning against. There's something wrong.

    I didn't want Lennon as manager, but calling him a Neanderthal is daft. He's actually quite an intelligent guy, just not a particularly good football manager. But he didn't hire himself.

    This. No more Boyata situations. They want to play or they dont. Take money and bring someone in who does.

    Lennon has no one else to blame here, hence the wild accusations about players not trying or whatever.

    The most disappointing thing about tonight was watching Lennon be a desperate spectator in this game. He just sat there raging and swearing when he was the only one that could orchestrate a change.

    If he takes off a tired Elhamed, we win. If he goes 3 at the back to tighten it up and get another striker on, we win.

    But no, he just sits there spitting teeth.

    @Briggs_bhoy as hammy said they have tried to get most of these guys to sign extensions and their value will go down by 50% in most cases next summer.
