New manager, new team, new boasts - same result, same dominace. Don't let the scoreline fool anybody. No doubt the hun-press will declare the gap is closing, but anyone watching that today can see we are still light years ahead of them and only luck, dodgy refereeing and a goalie that should have seen red early doors for a blatant kick saved them from another proper hiding.
Not one poor display in Hoops although Eddy was a bit 'rusty' but, KT, Olly, Broony, Ajer and Forrest were terrific and a wee mention for a player I called Judas last week and now have to hold hands my up and say Boyata has been making amends since his return to the side. Welcome back.

Agreed 100% oab
When Boyata keeps it simple he can be very effective for us 💚🍀HH.

Have to say I labelled Boyata a bomb scare and didn't think Ajer was up to it but credit where credit is due both were outstanding today👍.

The criticism of boyata was more than called for lads . Downing tools is never acceptable . But in like the real Judas? Who showed his true colours this week? Boyata has knuckled down and showed a professionalism a wouldn't have given him credit for a few weeks ago . Thought boyata had a great game and credit where credit is due . Well played .

{Ed007's Note - That's three clean sheets in a row since Boyata came back into the team and I know two of them were 'only' against Accies and Suduva - I had predicted a 3-1 in both games because I wasn't confident of keeping a clean sheet against anyone - but you can't really ask for any more defensively from Boyata (and the other defenders of course) than keeping a clean sheet in any game.}

Does anyone think we should offer Boyata a pay rise with a new 2 year contract, on the understanding that he can go next Summer, if we get a £9 million offer again.

{Ed007's Note - We might as well try something imo, I'd offer him a 5 year deal with a pay rise and a buy-out clause in the £10 - 15 million bracket - with the prices in England just going to continue rising and Kompany's international career coming to an end we'd easily get that if we were getting at least £9 million for him this summer.}

Bang on lads but truth be told he will never really be forgiven for what he done and his days are surely numbered.

{Ed007's Note - I don't know, Kev, I think if Boyata's fit Rodgers will start him in most games and it'll be Ajer who Benkovic needs to keep out the team.}

I agree with Ed on this one, everyone deserves a second chance and Boyata is showing he is deserving of that at the minute. With what BR says about him being a £10-15million CB if he were to sign a new contract and be committed i would have no problem with him being in the team as i think we may struggle to get anyone in with his experience with the recruitment problems we seem to be having at the moment. Since the WC he just looks more confident and composed.

{Ed007's Note - There was some rumours going about that Boyata was changing his agent which if true would make me wonder what part his agent played in the recent mess, especially after what Rodgers said he done just turning up at Lennoxtown.
Agents make a hell of a lot more money from a transfer than they do for negotiating a new contract.}

Should get rid of them they just cause trouble haha
Yea I have to agree Ed he should change his agent and sign a new contract up there with broony as one of the top earners at the club, I can't see any other way how we could have a CB from one of the best 4 teams in the world.
