    I dont really think he did a lot wrong. He kept his position, kept his passing relatively simple and won quite a few challenges. Also played a good ball down the wing to Johnstone to set him free.

    We lost the midfield battle after he went off. We need to have positional discipline and structure, for me its part of the reason why we concede so many, especially in europe.
    Yes we need to attack, but we need to keep our shape and prevent being countered.

    One of the last issues from yesterday and bringing him off was the wrong decision.

    Looks like his knee buckled as his leg hit the ground. Hope its not his knee ligaments.
    Desperately unlucky.

    We missed him when he went off. Hopefully not out long.

    Bernardo was fine when he came on, but hopefully Iwata's not out for long.

    Hope he's back soon. Makes a big difference to us.

    * off at Rodgers taking so long to give him game time, given the difference he makes. Wonder if Rodgers even goes to training after tonight.

    Lost a lot of control in the midfield when he went off. Hope he isn't out for long. Got to feel for him as he had just broken into the starting eleven.

    Massive downer of the night. Gutted for him as he was looking good and adding to the starting 11. Hopefully just brusing.

    As said hopefully not a serious one as he brings a lot to that deep lying role.

    Ironically he got injured making a tackle we've failed to make time and time again in this competition as we've played without a proper DM.

    Typical that he's out now when finally our midfield balance was starting to look better. Hopefully not out for too long.

    I thought the game passed him by. He’s not athletic enough to play in our system.

    This, he brings a balance to the midfield and keeps us ticking far better than when McGregor is in there.

    The absolute worst luck man, just as he’s getting a regular game. Just our * luck as well.

    Lets hope its nothing serious. But the way our season has gone so far with injuries I am not feeling optimistic.

    Was proper gutted when he got injured. Really hope it’s not too bad because he looks a proper player. When Iwata and Hatate are back we’ll have a proper midfield.
