 Connor Young

A think he found his level with Edinburgh city , simply not good enough at this level , which unfortunately is the case for a fair few of these players . What Lennon see’s on Oakley booth is also baffling .

Get it into his feet and let him spin - he`s not going to anything up there on his own with balls shelled up at him with three experienced centre halves breathing down his neck.

Canny be easy being a loan striker in this league. He needs someone up there with him.

Yeah boothe told us he didn’t fancy the physical nature of this league last season, that will prove to a mistake as he marks the space when out of possession and marks a raith man when we do have possession. You could take him or Otoo off as neither have touched the ball, amade would make a difference, hell a traffic cone would offer offer more than those 2 so far.

Had high hopes for young and think he’s having a crisis of confidence but if you can’t even control the ball its alarm bells ringing.

Thank god we signed Gilmour, he’s the only difference from last season so far.

We could have mbappe upfront and it wouldn’t matter the way we’re playing. Can’t touch the ball within 30 yards of their goal.

The fall off from hosler has been brutal, he’s lucky it was a long term contract he signed, will drop out of the team very soon and be away at the end of the season.

If we get any offer for otoo it’s worth taking, he’s getting schooled again tonight.

Think he is almost like a Craig Wighton type of player, get the ball to him in the box and let him work his magic. Outside the box, doesn`t seem to be able told his water...

Hard shift for Connor Young getting long balls hoofed up to him for the whole first half. Looks ok when the ball`s played into his feet

Disappointed with Hosler, Otoo & Oakley Booth though

Bit harsh. I think there`s something to work with but we need experience to help this team out.

Hard when he was spending half his time hugging the touchline tonight. Cant hold a ball up either but we insisted on going long to him.

I don’t see what Lennon sees in Oakley-Boothe at all. Offers nothing. We looked a lot better when Amade was in beside Gilmour.

Hosler is just a wasted jersey, again thought we looked better when Kearney came on.

We are crying out for an experienced striker to be brought in, hopefully the board put up some cash and get one or two over the line.

Don`t blame him at all for tonight. A lot of empty jerseys in that game. We got spooked big time and never recovered. Massive wake up call.

He`s one of them empty jumpers, no where near the level required to play in Lennon`s system

Why have we not at least looked at Oli Shaw? He would’ve done a lot more than what was on show tonight.

Fairly sure Shaw was at Hibs with Lennon previously.

Hasn`t a physical presence, constantly throwing himself to the ground, first touch is awful, freekicks are shocking ,not even an upgrade on Lewis McCann.
