    The Morrocan ain't that bad, wouldn't be a first choice for me but he ain't that bad.

    Poor game last night although he was prepared to have a ping something that Kamara won't.

    For first time he reacted to crowd last night who were hostile to him from the start.....usually no way back from that....as Bain and numerous others have found out.

    We all get frustrated, players don't set out to have poor games I just wish the fans were a bit more supportive rather than constantly raging.

    Heard McCann called a wee **** again last night again before an hour.
    think the criteria for a start under McCann is run around the training field a lot, don't think he sees past that. So Allan and Haber not in favour, Moussa still the chosen one with El Bak given 81 headless chicken minutes to do his own thing and not pick a single, decent pass all night. Big week ahead for the manager, hopefully he puts his ego to one side.

    I don’t think it’s his ego, I think he’s trying his best with the lot he has, people might say he signed most of these players, but truth is, he’s still restricted due to money being paid in wages to PH’s dreadful signings, think we really need to get behind NM and the team, and see this season through, think you’ll see a different team next season with his preferred players.

    wonder if you could teach El Bak how to do the things that he is regularly critcised for failing to do. first touch, not finding a pass, headless chicken. It seems to me that he has gone backwards and I wonder why. Is he given a free role? Is this the best use of his talents? Seems to me he got some joy when playing alongside either Haber or Moussa, and has had zero success when playing beside AJ. He isn't a playmaker but he does chase down opposition defenders and put them under pressure. Might we benefit if he was told to focus on supporting Haber or Moussa when we have the ball, and continue with his tackling back role. Looks to me as though he's been told that he's a great player who is going through a bad spell, and if he sticks in it will all come right. I'm not so sure but he does have pace and if he were to play in areas where that pace could be decisive we might get on a lot better. Martin Boyle seems to be holding down a place in Hibs and i can't believe that Lennon is sticking with him out the goodness of his heart.

    Agree 100% that this is a very big week for the manager. There's been a swell of opinion that NM is trying to justify himself by playing "his" signings at the expense of other players. We never know the true state of any player's fitness so I'm prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    moussa still being involved after the carry-on during and after the hearts game, the misses against partick and the wee haters, the only thing keeping him involved is the manager refusing to admit he signed a useless lump of sh1te. Meanwhile, Allan and Haber don't run about at training as much so binned/benched. Show Haber some Moussa-love and we could be sitting pretty in 8 days time

    Aye, after doing nothing for 3 weeks, he's now got a sore back. Strange.

    He doesn't need to run around the park, AJ and El Bak should be doing that. If Haber is still missing, then it's back to relying on Moussa and El Bak/AJ against a team who are pishing all over Dundee at the moment.

    Haber can't be trusted.
