With Janko just turning 20 years old, I wouldn't write him off at RB yet. Play him the rest of the season at RB and see if he's up to it come our next CL qualifiers. If not, buy a replacement in the summer. Lustig's time is up. He'll be on a decent wedge and we can't afford it for a guy who struggles to play 2 games in a row without getting injured. We saw the damage that can cause during our CL qualifiers. |

Like the farce they made of Gary Hooper's last year of his contract in the striker postion, it looks like the board have replicated that farce with their handling of the right-back position. From probably the strongest position in our squad last season (with Matthews, Lustig and Fisher all competing for the spot), we're now left with an almost perma-injured Lustig (with a noticable "That's me got the wife, the weans, and the millions now - so I cannae be bothered anymore" vibe coming off him strong) and Janko - who must be wondering if he's coming or going? Was it really worth the few million Sunderland threw at us for Matthews to throw all our eggs into the one (fragile) Lustig basket? Throw into the confusion mix the occasional Ambrose and Blackett, and it's a real mess. Not much better on the left-hand side either, where Delia seems to finally be giving Izaguirre the challenge to his position that he's been needing for seasons now - only he's only gone and done it at a stage where it's incredibly unfair on a young, inexperienced kid to be expected to step up, or it's at a time when Izaguirre's experience is exactly the type of thing we need. And that's before we even mention the centre-half positions! Just another example of the board putting money before the performance of the team. Ironically, a fully-fit and performing Lustig would be one of the last few remaining Celtic players who the board could line-up for a big-money move down to England. But that won't be happening anytime soon on his current form/fitness. |

Injuries have finally caught up with him I think. We need the invisible man Janko to step up. |

Janko is still only twenty and shown a few bits of quality so I wouldn't really say that's a concern. We do need to sign another right back though. |

Janko is injured. and has been for what 4 weeks? Its Lustig or Ambrose. What an eff up. Fisher was never going to make it long term but at least he was a bit of cover and cant have been costing much of a wage, which we're probably still paying most of anyway. |

Wouldn't argue with that. I do think though, injuries are maybe starting to get the better of him. Shame, he is a very consistent and steady performer, a guy who will almost guarantee you 7/10 most games. No sign of Allan again tonight, what was the point in signing him ? Not a criticism of the player, I like him and want to see him get a run in the team, but was he solely signed to get a laugh at the zombies expense ? |

If Janko is fit he must be first choice right back from now on. |

Lustig use to look exhausted after 60 minutes, now he looks exhausted after 15 He is either done or needs to be kept out until he is actually ready. |

He's done, isn't he? I hear Sunderland have a promising young Welsh right back who'd be a decent replacement. |

Yes , Matthews is tearing it up in the premiership. Sub in the first 3 games and then not quoted since. 30mins of league football since August. Either injured or not good enough - that's why we got rid. |

He's looked done this season. Janko has impressed and deserves a run when back. |

We have known for a long time lustig can rarely play 90 minutes nor two games a week. I'm not 100% sure but i ghink thursday was his fourth full game in ten days. If janko had been fit to play in some of the games recently I think lustig would have played better on Thursday. |

Lustig is done!!! I really like the guy but we cannot persevere with a player with his level of fitness. |

If it wasn't for his fitness he'd be elsewhere playing his football anyway. We knew what we signed but accepted it due to his quality. I'm not for dumping him but I'm all for someone more reliable getting his job. |
