    Freshening the squad can help, bringing in guys who have been out in the cold can work. Like in January when we brought GMS back into the fold and went on a good run.

    It's not a case of just doing the same thing over and over and hoping that this time it'll work.

    I wouldn't see any harm in bringing in a creative player for somebody who is underperforming.

    I can barely remember a time we've went with the same starting 11 twice.

    I think the opposite of what you're suggesting might be more beneficial.

    Pick 11 guys and stick with them regardless of form?

    Agreed. Deila has been far too loyal to players like Armstrong & Johansen this season. If players are bang out of form, they should be dropped.

    I think we've missed Johansen tbh.

    He's been gash compared to what he can be this season but he does a * of a lot of work. He can be petty, he has shown that a lot this season but he never hides and works hard.

    Still not good enough, he's nowhere near the level he should be at but has been missed.

    When have we missed him do you think?

    He has played the majority of games this season, and I honestly cannot remember a game when he was a stand out. He has been a passenger far too often, and should have been dropped a while ago. He is one player who has been picked regardless of form this season.

    Definitely over the last couple of games. It's when things stop going our way, he doesn't hide at all. I don't think he's ever a passenger, I think he's played poorly but passenger isn't the right way to explain his performances.

    Deila has wasted this boys season, I hope he doesn't do it with Christie and young Roberts. What a * deila is.

    Going by that reckoning he's wasted the season of every player he hasn't played regularly?

    He clearly has talent, must not be showing enough at training

    I hope this is trolling :56:

    If not, who the * is becomes more apparent.

    The only way we will see the best of Scott Allan is if he gets a good run of games which sadly I don't think is going to happen. We have way too many options in that area of the park.

    Ridiculous that Allan, Christie or Roberts are not involved at all today. Yet McGregor who has just got done for drink driving gets a place on the bench.

    Genuinely wasted talent here , and a pointless signing . Christie will be the same .

    I find it excruciating that he's not getting much of a chance.

    Wonder if he regrets signing for us?

    He must be panicking , his career is slipping away from him this move has done him no favours.

    Christie and all will be lucky to get a half dozen appearances between them the rest of this season.
