He’s the next boo boy …..they need one and it happens to be him at this moment in time Even though he was shocking. No work rate whatsoever.

Major lack of contribution in the first half. Moved around and got more involved second.
Not a good showing today. I'm fine with playing him a bit more to see if we can make it work and pick him up for next season but that's only because this season's a write off already.

The lad looked terribly dejected when he was subbed and when he went down the touch line at the final whistle. Looks bereft of confidence. Could you tell if it was confidence or couldn't be arsed?

Well he sometimes kept possession , layed the ball off, played several short passes under pressure and won the ball back a couple of times in the first half. I saw him do all these things during the game. Those moments were, I thought, decent. I've seen my 3 year old grandson do the same in my back garden yesterday. You should mark him tighter then.

I'm 43, and I've been listening to Nigel since I was a kid, and I've never heard him slate a player like he did Maja today. To be fair he's right. I really hope we don't have an obligation to sign him. He's a fanny I’m 44 and said the same thing.

We’re simply in a bad place, decent players will look poor. Not saying he’s decent but he’s part of an overall problem of a team with no direction and very little confidence. There isn’t one player putting in consistently good performances. Maybe because they are not really good players. The sign of a good player is being able to produce performances regularly. I genuinely believe that we are codding ourselves about our team. If every one of them was playing at their best every week, then all our problems would disappear. Unfortunately that is not the case. Vrancic ,for example, has ability but contributed very little today and he wasn't the only one.

Strange one, I thought he hadn't seen Campbell at first but he's in his line of sight on the below video. It looks like he doesn't get all of the ball with his trailing foot at which point he's then got three defenders around him and one catching up with Tyrese (easy to overanalyse in the aftermath rather to the heat of the moment!)

That video is interesting, it must be said. When I saw it live (on TV) I thought it was one of the most pathetic things I've seen recently from a Stokie. But watching it again, it seems that he trails his foot, doesn't have enough pace on the ball, so he stops, and is cut off from a potential pass to Campbell, so he's thinking, we're one-nil up, I'll slow it down, and we will do a patient build-up. But that's being generous to the bloke. At the time I wanted to lop his fucking head off.

My take on Maja. Capable of leading the line, he holds the ball up well mainly, has a good first touch. Low on confidence is showing but the whole squad are in that boat. Should have had at least one goal today and only he knows why he held up the play when Tyrese was clear. Would I sign him? Yes, for a couple of million, I think he has more to give, Fletch has had it, Tyrese is better wide and so is Brownie (another great effort from him today too).

What’s wrong with that?
He doesn’t seem to see Campbell and he then needs to wait for people to catch up.

Baker, Powell and Souttar should improve the side next year. As Meatloaf said "Three out of Ten ain't Bad".

I thought I must be living in a parallel universe having read some of the nonsense on here.

Let's discuss What the fuck was going through his head? As Nige said, 'Waiting around having a lick of his ice cream'. Love a Nigeism It felt nonsensical in every manner, Campbell was through!
Agreed. Not sure there's anything to discuss, don't pick him again even as a sub and definitely don't sign him. Doubt anyone will argue with that. O'Neill will.

Every centre half that’s come within a yard has batted him away like a gnat. Add to that he never wins anything in the air. Quoted fee was 3.5m, got to be better out there for that price. Another striker that isn’t quick, strong or prolific.

Like I said before the entire team is low on confidence and even the better players get dragged into that. You kind of don’t know if he’s any good because he’s not playing in a team with any direction🤷🏻♂️
