Just my opinion. I saw sevco implode trying for the ten in a row. Wasnt alive to see big Jocks attempt. What I did notice about sevco was that they were far too loyal to players who simply weren't cutting it anymore. I believe that we are on the edge of making the same mistake. Scott Brown is done. Been a great servant to our club but he is finished. Rogic is wasted on our bench. A blind man can see that 3-5-2 isn't working. We have the most expensive squad in Scotland. Time they earned their pay!

Scott Brown is in the twilight of a magnificent career. Should he be used more sparingly? yes. Will his knowledge, experience and will to win still be vital to our success this season? without a shadow of a doubt, yes.
As talented as Rogic is on his day, I find it curious that you would go on to use him as the alternative, as some sort of saviour. This is his 9th season and he has played 125 games. During that time Scott Brown has played almost double that tally.
We have struggled badly so far this season. Rogic came on against Milan and offered a glimmer of hope. Due to the fans being starved of many positives so far, his contribution has been a bit exaggerated.
When the squad is fully fit/ available I can't see him being used in anything other than a bit-part role.

A fit Tom Rogic (no laughing at the back) is by far the most creative player we have. He plays passes that others aren't capable of. The delicate through ball for Eddy at hamilton last season the link up with calmac on sun. If Christie had played that pass it would have gone though to the keeper or out for a goal kick. Rogic is our best bet at number 10, imo, if we play that way. Unfortunately he will prob play 5 games then be out for 3 months.

Yet his assist and goal stats for a number 10 are appalling. Luxury player at best.

Commonsense, big Jock didn't have an attempt to do 10 in a row because until he did the 9 there was no existing target. When he did the 9 it was a joint World record for league's in a row.

Nonsense! Scott Brown and Tom Rogic should be starting every week! Who would you replace Brown with? Ntcham? Turnbull? Replace Rogic with Christie? No laughing now!

Biggest problem with rogic is injuries. Most of his appearances come from bench or only last 60 mins. Looking at his league stats he provides a goal or assist every 2.25 appearances. When you consider lack of mins it's not that bad. I don't think he has ever shown anything at a better level for us but domestically an on form rogic is a huge asset. It's just my opinion though and I was excited about Moi and he's been terrible this season!
