Just read Brendan's comments regarding Hatate, he mentions that Hatate is a great player but gives the ball away to often.
Is this the reason Hatate didn't play often at the beginning of the season and does anyone think that this could mean we could see Hatate leave in the summer as that will be huge if we also lose Matt.

Was going to post along those lines Johnbhoy71, Mat looks certain to go, the wealthier teams are very interested. Reo did give the ball away too often yesterday and he gave us some nervous moments therefore it would not be a surprise if Brendan decided he wanted more stability there. Calmac can't keep on playing every game for us - takes too much out him now. We could be looking at a different midfield next season.

When Hatate returned to fitness he made a huge difference in our midfield for this run in and on his game is a very good player for us.
I can see MOR being sold as I believe there will be offers for him that might be too good for our board to knock back.
I'd hope we hold onto Reo as he's a class act ?

When you play the ball forward and try to make difficult passes, you reduce your pass completion.
I'm guessing Rodgers was just thinking of this game, were he wanted more control at the later stages.

I personally don't want to see Hatate leaving as I agree that he can be a class act, I was just surprised when I read Brendan's comments and wondered if Hatate is his type of player.
I was screaming at the tv for the last 20 mins to just keep the ball as for some reason we couldn't.
I still think we need a Big Vic type in midfield, especially going into Europe.

We as fans need to be very strong and determined that we are not prepared to allow our better players to leave to join other clubs in other leagues because they maybe be able to earn more money, yet spend less time playing and more time sitting on bench . We expect Board to pay the going. rate for quality players and also give them the opportunity to play at the highest level of European football.
