    Isaiah Osbourne

    I thought he was good last week, I thought he was even better this week.

    Possibly the only player we have with any composure.

    Very impressed so far

    I actually agree with you. He shows some composed touches, Unfortunately, it doesn't fit in with CC's brand of hoofball.

    I thought he looked extremely lazy. Chased nothing down, ducked out of headers, swaggered back when the pars were on the break. Couple of decent touches tho

    I thought he was very assured in the middle of the park, impressed by him. Not impressed by hibs and cc overall

    I completely disagree and can't understand how some people see this guy as a player. In my opinion he is an absolute disgrace of a player. I said the same last Sunday. He is slow, weak and gives the ball away far too much. I would prefer John Rankin in midfield!

    I thought he looked ok, i only saw what ESPN were showing so hard to judge his off the ball work, but in his defence its hard to influence play when the ball is just flying over your head for most of the game.
    Put the ball on the deck and you'll see a better player, and he showed a few nice touches.
    CC's hoooooofball game is rotten.

    With Osbourne and Palsson in the middle of the park we have the slowest and laziest midfield partnership in the league.

    If you are seriously implying that Osbourne was decent then you didnt watch the same game!

    he hides a bit much for my liking but defo a player in there

    showed way more than Palsson did today.

    Im getting less and less hopeful Victor will actually turn into a player for us

    If that's what's deemed as an acceptable performance from a CM these days then deary me..

    He didn't put in 1 tackle of note today, slower than a week in Saughton & for his size gets shoved around like a wee hobbit..

    Not anything like what we need in the middle of the park seeing as this season is a full on relegation battle..

    He's just ***** to be honest..

    That's like saying dung smells better than *****.

    Both are awful, and CC can take them two and the joke subs with him when he goes.

    And to make matters worse, Osbourne is probably on about four times what the average Dunfermline player is on.

    Agree 100%. It shows how thick that clown we have in charge is if he thinks those two make a decent midfield partnership. They are probably both on high wages by our standards as well given that they joined us from Liverpool and Aston Villa. They just look like slow, lazy, uninterested losers.

    What a ferking shambles.

    As slow as Ray Wilkins when he played for us.

    Very very uninspiring

    I would disagree that he is the only player that we have with composure, but would agree he did well today. I think he looks like he could be a good player going forward, the problem he is spent far too much time closing down and chasing the players that Palsson was leaving to roam free.

    I would be tempted to put scott in alongside him and drop Palsson who is showing the same as he did last season, nothing. In his defense he is still young-ish and is perhaps a player we should be using to bring on in place of a sub to protect a lead in a game, god forbid that should happen.

    Agree, getting fitter/better every match. Just a pity the ball gets launched over his head at every opportunity. Showed glimpses of quality today. In a 'footballing' side he's got the potential to be a real asset.

    I really feel that we actually don't have that bad a team right now. It's just the manager/tactics.

    And when was Wilkins ever a quick player??

    How ironic you have GB as your avatar...

    Arrived, fleeced the club for what he could get, done nowt, then left. (Did Wilkin's not do the same?)

    I honestly think he's been *****.

    Maybe in a passing game would we see the real Osbourne but he's the laziest CM I've seen in ages.

    His touch is only a little better than Palsson's.

    Your overall post contradicts this point

    We've not had the opportunity to see him in a passing game though, so I don't see how it does; he's certainly not a player who is suited to the hoofball tactic.

    1. Maybe in a passing game would we see the real Osbourne correct

    2. but he's the laziest CM I've seen in ages. how many passes does he get? - Refer to point No.1
