    I prefer Christie playing more of an 8 role to a 10. Particularly in bigger games, I think his energy and work rate are ideal for the role and he can time runs well to arrive that little later in to the box and not get picked up.

    Don’t get me wrong his stats as a 10 have been excellent this season but I still think his best performances in big games (home to Leipzig and Salzburg) in last years Europa were as more an 8, where as in Rangers games he seems to struggle to have an impact as a 10.

    Ryan's work ethic today was outstanding and he was at the heart of the good things we did today - MOTM for me today

    Equally as good at number 8 and number 10.

    His contribution this season has been unreal - 18 goals and 16 assists.

    Players with those sort of attacking stats can sometimes start to ignore their defensive responsibilities but he never does - works tirelessly every single game.

    Brilliant attitude and player.

    Flashscores and Transfermarkt have it as 18.

    If you include his Scotland goal it’s 19.

    I love him in the 8 if I'm honest..

    He's best breaking from deep in my opinion and his energy is infectious grafting like * from that position covering the ground..

    Sometimes he can get snuffed out as the 10 in there on his own and doesn't always have the strength or skill to make up for it..

    Has done excellently in the 10 at time's and scored some peaches but he looks a classy 8 and a good 10 for me..

    Energy as well, his closing down and running played a big part in the home wins against Lazio and Leipzig turning the tables a bit and rushing teams.

    Big Tam replacing him couldnt be any more opposite in style.

    Just shows what a laughable booking that was..

    Booked for someone heading the ball on to his hand from a yard when he wasn't even facing the ball..

    Aye joke decision.

    Him, but CM and Rogic would have been the best served for this game.

    I think we missed his energy and guile. Offers more than Rogic everytime in my opinion.
