I loved him, probably my favourite player for a while. I think he's had his best days for us, so maybe time to move on, if someone could take his wages.

I'll contradict myself by saying, I think he would be a far better centre half than the two numpties who played tonight.

Hard to dislike him. Just looking at him makes me smile.

Time to start phasing him out for Janko.

The injuries are too much, he looks scared that hes going to get injured again.

Was thinking the same last night. I cant think of one 50/50 he went in for.

Given last night's shambles I'd play him at centre back with mulgrew or a sack of tatties before efe and boyata.

There was one after about 65 minutes where he challenged their goalkeeper, then hobbled back holding his groin.

I was amazed he wasnt subbed after that.

Bizarrely seems to escape any criticism, largely I think because he rarely plays anymore than 2 games on the bounce so no one can really hand on heart say whether he has it or not. Given his relative experience questions have be asked of him given he has been part of many a shambolic defensive performance when you'd expect him to bring a bit of composure.

Only other question would be that given Lustig has previously played as a certain back and Janko hasn't done too badly at right back why didn't we play Lustig in the middle instead of Efe?

That's because the guy who fell on the floor caught him in the knackers with his boot. Even Lustig can recover from that in less than a month.

He was not alone, but I thought he had a shocker last night.

He has terrible technique & it often gets him into trouble from the least dangerous positions. Injuries have ruined him unfortunately.

It was actually their defender who studded him in the balls.

The Hulk would have hobbled back after that.

Half the player he used to be. I'd probably give him a run at CB ahead of Boyata though.

He took a knock tonight in the first half and played on, but even when he is supposedly fit these days he looks finished.

Suppose he was only as bad as the rest tonight, excluding young Tierney.

It's gutting when players you like go sh*te, but Lustig has been unbelievably f*cking awful this season.

I love Mikael but long-term, we need to look for his replacement.

If that replacement is either Janko or someone worse, then I would be seriously concerned.
