Watching the Sevco game again what stands out is how Boyata can't play as the senior cb, where he should be leading by example & talking the younger guys through the game. Jozo gets sent off & we have a new keeper playing his debut at Ibrox, a young cb new to the club & playing out of position at RB, Hendry heads the ball out for a corner, with nobody near him, as he didn't get a shout & took safety first as his option. Boyata is screaming at him & waving his hands about! Hendry basically blanks him, saying he didn't get a shout. Hendry wins the defensive header from the corner & clears it. Literally 1 minute later, Boyata dives in against Morelos, goes flying past the ball leaving an open run on goal for the £11m man. Ajer does great to cover the mistake & gets a touch, Bain does great & saves. Ajer ushers Morelos out for a bye kick. Nobody says anything to Boyata about his pathetic mistake - no one is waving their arms about shouting at him. He's the worst cb & looks it, even when playing with 3 young guys & a debut keeper he's the weakest link in the back 4. I can't stand him. |

Thats fair comment... I think rogers likes him for his blistering pace which to be fair he has...it's usually to cover for his errors but for some reason I like him as a player he does have his days but other days he can look like a young Kolo Toure! |

Ajer is our best CB & he's a 19 year old, learning a fairly new position. Says a lot about Boyata 27 & Jozo 23. Hopefully Compper can come in until the end of the season with Ajer & Hendry as a back 3. I'd say that could be our best 3, more based on how inconsistent & error prone the other 2 are, more than anything else. We've seen plenty to show us Jozo & Boyata aren't good enough, both also rumoured to be fairly keen to leave & I won't be worried when they eventually do. |

That sounds to me like he and his agent are aware of interest from another club. Probably one that can offer a bigger salary than us. |

Punt. Completely unreliable and makes Efe look a model of composure. Olivier Tebily was better too. |

He does look the business when on form and not making silly mistakes. But so did Efe. And so do most defenders. The odd mistake can usually be forgiven, but one every game or even every second game unfortunately can't. |

Efe had a very good season beside VVD and put in some excellent backs to he wall performances in Europe beside Wilson, Boyata has had 3 good months in a Celtic jersey and even at his best he's not as good as Jozo. |

Has a lot of good attributes but is let down by his own judgement and lack of awareness. Great leap and good pace but too often in the wrong starting place to make use of his assets to the full. The odd great tackle but a host of free kicks - too late or too clumsy to win the ball without knocking opposition players over. Passing hit and miss - has a decent pass in him but too many basic , inaccurate passes which even if they don't surrender possession hurts the flow of the team. Add in the odd complete howler and combine with Jozo's shortcomings we have an area of the team in need of surgery. We have needed experience at the back for some time - a leader to organise the defence and support Broony on the pitch. Hopefully Compper will be that man but I think he will be guiding Ajer and Hendry rather than Boyata and Jozo. |

Celtic's first choice defender's need to be able to be relied upon 40/50+ games a season. Boyata doesn't appear to have the mental or physical fitness to be relied upon in that number of games every season. He's big, good in the air and has a good turn of pace. However he is prone to lapses in concentration and is not comfortable enough on the ball for the style of football Brendan Rodgers wants to play. When he is in the form he was in during the latter half of last season and even the beginning of this one he is a certain starter. However he isn't consistently able to maintain that sort of form over the course of a season. Add in the injuries to that inconsistency and he's not the future at CB. If he wants to go, let him. |
