Can’t pass, can’t run very fast, seems to have lost the ability to tackle and everything he does either slows us down or has a negative effect on a quick attack 

hopefully the Gaffer knows this now after his half time hook for his shite performance last night. 

This position needs filled in January for sure. 

I agree.  Surprised he lasted till half time.

Had a couple of games in Europe where he looked awrite, but has been poor overall. 

Doesn't give me as much fear as Worrall does when he's on the ball though. Worrall seems to slow everything down, whereas when it was Goldson and Katic they both had the balls to try diagonal balls to the wingers/ Morelos.

See to be honest there are quite a lot of not very good football players in the managers squad. This is the main problem we have And it will take at least another two windows to fix it. But we should still be good enough to beat the likes of Aberdeen and Kilmarnock.

Honestly don't get the Worral hate. Think he is a very good centre back.

He's been ok until last night. Last night he was horrible. 

He's 100% hampered by playing on the left in a forward going sense. Not that he'll ever be an attacking fullback. Defensively he's been decent... until last night. His passing gas been ok... until last night.

Overall, he's done a decent job, but last night needs to have been an aberration, because it was fucking awful.

Think he's a decent defender, just not great on the ball. 

There was an instance last night in the first half where we were under no pressure. He kept the ball until Flanagan was in a position to receive it with no one around him, then passed it to Halliday in the middle anyway who was instantly under pressure. 

Always feel like he takes ages just to take a touch and pass it

Our team never seems to have a steady 7/10 - players are either 8 & upwards or absolute pish.

Flanagan should be a plodder but he's not, far from it. And their goal came from his side - not 100% attributable to him but still it's directly down his area of the pitch.

Don't hate him but he's in the side seemingly for height only. He's ponderous on the ball and just does not judge the pace of a pass either to him or from him. He was dropped for the Hamilton game in and Katic had a mare. If Katic gets another chance and shows his pre-Hamilton form, there's no way Worrall gets another sniff. Flanagan is the archetypal grafter. On his good days, you'll appreciate him. On his bad days he'll leave you frustrated as hell....but you'll recognise his effort for the cause.

His defending and passing has been brutal long before last night. He was awful against Aberdeen aswell remember, GMS tore him to bits. 

He's put in a couple of decent performances, Aberdeen away springs to mind, but apart from that, mostly terrible.

He's had a couple of good games but his decision making is woeful, letting the ball bounce in front of him etc. Get a forward who can run at him and he completely shites himself aswell.

GMS fucked him once early in the match, after that he did very little.

He's been fine until yesterday.
