Just from watching the highlights of yesterdays game on youtube, it looked like Taiwo was pushing up alot more than he normally does, and doing so quite successfully.

His bit of play in the build up to our first is excellent and for our second he's the only other player in the box with collins and follows up the shot to make sure it goes in.

Hopefully he can continue this and add some goals and assists to his game as well as his tackling and work-rate.

I think he's a great wee player. Very underrated in my opinion probably because the lack of goals to his game but he works his socks off all the time and tries his best for the club.

One of the best players at the club in my opinion - tidy, industrious, does the unsexy role in the team - I'd love to see the stats but we regularly get something from games he starts in.

I'm a huge fan of TT.

Excellent player and a great signing . Other players get more attention because they`ve played in Scotland longer but he rarely has a bad game whether as a starter or coming from bench . A few weeks ago someone here suggested TT might be a good right back and I`d think it might be something worth trying .

Maybe a tad harsh? Thought he looked good throughout :dunno:

Tin hat.... Not overly impressed with TT. I'm pretty sure he won't get a start when everyone's fit. Thomson, Craig, Cairney, Robertson, Harris, and Zoubir (from what I gather) are all ahead of him. :duck:

Would have to disagree. IMO we play better when he's in the team which can be argued to be evident by his selection in our 2 victories this season, and lack of his presence during our 2 losses. Not saying he is the difference but he does seem to be one of the hardest workers in our team.

Cairney better than TT? Really?

No comparison to be made. Totally different type of players

Excellent player and one who always wants the ball and doesn't hide during matches. If Jorge hasn't been here last year he would of been very close to being POTY. (Behind Leigh that is)

His contract runs out at the end of this season so I'd like to see us get Tom signed up on a longer deal before January. Same goes for Ben Williams.

This. Both very important players. This is hopefully being sorted.

i've always liked TT but i thought his passing was pretty poor in the 1st half on saturday, still...he's allowed an off day/half considering he normally puts a good shift in

Ben Williams is SO important to us. More so than TT, who also contributes lots, it's just he isn't a specialist player like a goalkeeper is. I'd love both to sign longer contracts (especially Ben though!)

Love Wee Tommy. Last year the better he played the better we played. Him and Claros had a good understanding and its a pity they couldn't link up this season again. Glad he contributed on Saturday.

He's not a bad player, but when everyone is fit I can't see him getting a game. It will be him, KT or OTJ as the sitting midfielder with either Robertson or Craig with Zoubir and Harris on the wings. But it shows we are getting a decent SPLF squad. That leaves Cairney, Stanton, Stevenson and Handling as back up. That gives PF a choice of 11 players for his midfield. But do any really know what combo he will play?

I think Stevenson is going to be used as a FB this season. He's played really well there this season.

Sorry a wee bit off topic but just seen him in Starbucks at the Fort with his girlfriend/partner/mistress/better half and she is a bit of alright!

Well done TT keeping up the standards.
