This is one of my biggest issues with Bulut's management.

Robertson is clearly our best technical midfielder.

He plays quick and forward passes as well as just wanting to get on with things, doesn't waste time.

He can tackle too.

I really don't know why he's not starting.

We know Bulut likes his golden oldies, maybe that's why.

Hopefully the next manager will make sure he starts games in future.

He must be wondering at the moment if he made the right choice by joining us.

Team should be built and play around Robertson and Daland imo. Both take 1 touch and pass no f*cking about

THIS.

I was a Bulut supported for ages, maybe one of the last. But when he took Robertson off first against Boro instead of Sio or Ramsey that was baffling, and even Robertson knew it.

To Buluts credit, I think this will turn out to be an excellent signing long after he’s gone. Daland and Fish also look like good business. All 3 have to start next week if fit IMO

The squad is one of the best we've had for years,half the league could only wish for the players we have but the manager has failed to get anything out of them .

Spot on - why he isn't in the starting 11 is unbelievable!

Because he’s a club signing, not one Bulut chose.

It’s because Sio is his love child, and no matter how bad he plays, he will still start him.

Loved Sio last season, but this season he’s absolutely nowhere near the level he was last season.

Big tug of war to get him, to leave him on the bench.

Can't make this shite up.

Well with Bulut now having got the Bulut I would hope to see the younger lads in the starting 11 straight away.

Not only that but the immediate binning of the ineffective dullfest that is 4-2-3-1.

Siopis was in nosebleed territory twice yesterday... in the oppisitions third.

In both instances he had FOUR options for forward passes. FOUR options for a positive pass.

Guess what he did. Twice.

Robertson simply HAS to start, and I'd start by sending Siopis back to Greece for a bit.
