He's doing better than I thought he would. Consistently works very hard. Which puts him ahead of many of his teammates.

Can't ask for more - clearly giving his all for the team / jersey and contributing some goals as well...worthy of his place

would be in my team every week. Gives his all and never hides, very efficient with the ball too. Would love to see a midfield 3 of mcgregor, bitton and rogic.

Despite being quite a technical player, he is the best sclaffer of a baw I've ever seen. If he means them then he's a genius. Never seen anybody hit so many dangerous pish shots.

Moving into space and showing for a teammate when under pressure? Let's hope it catches on next season

Another good game in the middle from him yesterday.

Definitely worth keeping around and deserves to start the remaining games this season.

Half the talent of some, with double the workrate and good attitude. That makes him more effective and overachieving than others. Not a certain starter for me, but someone who we can rely upon to do a job for us when called upon. And good for a goal.

Hopefully he continues to learn and develop, and maybe will establish himself as a regular in the future. But deserves recognition and praise for his performances this season.

As an aside, he unfortunately is a graduate from the James Forrest school of running.

I don't think the "half the talent" thing is anywhere close to being fair. He's clearly one of the most technically proficient players in our squad and one of the very few capable of passing the ball with a bit of zip.

Was more a turn of phrase than aiming for full accuracy. He's certainly not as gifted as some in our squad who have underachieved. But has an excellent attitude which makes him more valuable.

Phoenix and ashes comes to mind. As well as humble and pie. And face and egg. He is one of us, and by that I mean a guy who deserves a bloody chance. Just like we all do.

First half on Saturday he was excellent. Faded a little in the second half. Still made him my man of the match

One of the very few players we have that passes AND moves, constantly looking for the ball.

He is 22 years old, so next season is the one where he should be pushing on to be a first pick every week. He has the ability to take over the Commons type role and chip in a double figure goal tally every season.

Done well and deserves to be in and around the squad next season.

Some roasters at work reckon Scott Allan should stay and he should go. Can't believe that thinking!
Keep both and play them together :thumbsup:
That's exactly what Scott Allan is wanting too.

Edit - OT - our best player on Saturday.

McGregor and KT the stand-outs.

Played well first half Saturday. Still think if he is going to make it t higher level then he needs to be one of holding midfielders. I would have given him the last few weeks ahead of half fit Brown.
