    Soro was * against Aberdeen I can see why he is no starting

    Turnbull looks the only consistent player we have had over the last few months

    Why the * with the single striker *. We've proved time and time again this season we are not effective like that. Dropping Soro is stupid, we lose so much of the energy and dynamism with him out.

    I still think its a fine team to win, but it'll be a torrid game, Eddie is a great player but he's not a lead the line striker, he a linkup ki d of striker that comes deep, that's just not as effective without a partner

    I see Lennon is continuing with this playing Christie up front pish and we have three natural centre forwards to choose from .
    I be glad when this season is over and Lennon is gone can't stand this * .

    The way our seasons went wouldn’t be surprised if we had a 4am kickoff on Lennon s orders

    Tbf mate anytime the so called 3 natural strikers have played apart from the odd goal or 2 they’ve been *
    One looks finished, one looks overweight and the other tries hard runs about with the control and first touch of an elephant

    Don’t think he was * mate, he hit a few stray passes which was unlike him but the amount of tackles and interceptions that he won during the game was 1 of the main reasons we didn’t concede

    Don't see the point in giving Rogic any more minutes.

    Christie was pish for ages got papped out the team and has came back still as pish as before, and of course brown back in. just * scunners you seeing these lineups, know exactly the type of game your going to get.

    Soro was rotten against aberdeen, he gave me the impression he thought it was too easy. In saying that, a severe boot up the * then send him out tonight and see how he responds, don’t drop him. That’s nothing to do with Brown playing it’s more about managing the player and what’s expected here.

    he was embarrassed in to the changes in December, but has slowly returned to type - as we all knew.

    3 strikers on the bench - when we all know 2 up top is what is needed.
    3 number tens forced in to the squad because Brown and Christie MUST play - while two more gifted and higher potential central mids sit on the bench.

    Of the players available picked just in the match day squad, that is yet again another * lineup with baffling selections and formations.

    Christie is a dreadful player mate, hard to actually believe its the same wee guy who grabbed the game by the baws at Murray field and got into the starting line up, scored in the league cup final actually would go as far as to say for nearly a year after that he was our best player

    Even mind first game of the season we beat St Johnstone 7-0, he scored 4 and was virtually unplayable

    The team is also a reflection on how poor our three other striking options are..

    Griffiths, Ajeti & Klimala all benched in favour of a midfielder playing as a striker, I'm tired of even questioning it at this point.

    Brown & Christie have been good the last few weeks. Don’t see the problem with both of them starting, especially against this lot. Brown, even at his age, still remains a lynchpin, and Christie is a game-changer. Besides, Brown can be subbed for Soro at any time (and hopefully the latter has toned his over aggression down a bit . . . bit of a liability that side of his game as it often stops the flow of the game and results in him receiving a booking quite a lot). I’m happy with this starting 11.
