Definitely. Guys like Hyndman come with a pedigree that should have him as one of our best players if not one of the best players in the league outwith Celtic yet he’s offered zilch. We’ve also some of our formerly dependable players not performing nearly well enough.

At the same time though there’s too many players playing in roles they’re not comfortable with because we don’t have the players to play critical roles like centre midfield which isn’t helping some of them.

Maybe it’s time to pick a settled side?

I’d agree but the players who’re picked really need to step up to the mark

Agree with this. We started the game with 6 defensive players on the park which is totally unacceptable for me. Bartley not getting a look in over Milligan is biting us on the arse, he's played really well every time he's been in.

I would disagree re Hyndman, after a slow start i would argue that he was our best player from around the Aberdeen cup game for a few matches until he got injured. I am not suggesting him being missing is the reason for the slump but i am sure that the creativity we are missing is down very much to him not being available.

7 defensive players plus the goalie... but who's counting ;)

Geez, was it Barcelona away we were playing?

Maybe the players are not good enough to step up.

I will second that

what exactly do you want the players to do?

apart from cutting out defensive mistake which are obviously not done on purpose I don't see that there is a lack of conviction.
the problems are team selection, positions and tactics - and that is all down to the coaching

Tend to agree with this comment. Perhaps the manager feels he has prepared the current staff as best he can and maybe feels a new Club may want his services.

Maybe play at a tempo from the first whistle get a few more shots away and get them on target :dunno::dunno::dunno:

Hmm, as long as it not the settled side from Sat :greengrin A winning side would be good to start with.

Jamie MacLaren has stepped up.

According to reports we have received £100,000+ from FIFA for his involvement in the World Cup.

Thank you, Jamie.
