KILLER MUSHROOM – 7.5/10 MOTM – Terrific Kyogo involvement once more reminds us of what’s been lacking since the summer of 23 prodigal reset. Drifting around, sliding in some delicious balls, sharp and inventive. Did his utmost bar scoring to get us the points; even then his only blot was pinching one off Yang in a stramash and failing to tuck it away. Keep the wee mhan playing, particularly into the CL showdowns; he’s the main striker we need as BR’s big signing flops.

YING – 6.5/10 – Another busy outing, but… This time some reward for his honest endeavour. A heider from the diminutive Korean, lol. But well done to hustle and climb and knock it in; only to have the glory of celebrating in front of the away support ripped away minutes later as The Sieve struck back. Nobody’s overly convinced of his worth yet, but there’s no doubting his commitment.

THE TERMINATOR – 6.5/10 – Growl, snarl, moan, BANG! Lined up and skewed a couple before the big pressure moment. But, like I’ve said – the Bhoy’s got some gallusness and was born for finales like that. Keep him mean and keep him keen and get him in there from the start, deeper and taking some workload off Calmac if necessary.

HAKUNA HATATE – N/A – Why? #2 Not really a game to throw Reo into when your incumbent midfielder’s doing just fine and already on the scoresheet. And thus, Reo got lost in the clutter.

We’ve yet to discover Engels best position – right back or left back in the dressing room. Need to buy the Polak Bogusz to replace the Bogus.
