Cannot disagree with any of that Melvin, I would say though that I think Reynolds is still coasting the wave of the hype from his initial two seasons a bit, hence the continuing media bigging up and recent Rangers bid. I do say this with the proviso that I was one of his most vocal supporters in that period, and have said that recently that he's shading off a bit - the difficult second season syndrome (except it's his third) - which to be honest is inevitable with young players at some point. I still reckon that it'll be likely he will move on
The Fizzy issue, for me he's not a wide left offensive player in the mould of Lappin, his best performances are slotting in in the middle beside Lasley and Hughes, doing the donkey work and making the odd run forward which Hughes should be able to pick out. I think he's destined to be one of the borderline squad players who polarise opinion, whether this is good enough for him who knows?
Boab back in the middle is interesting, McGhee has came out in the media and said he's not as good as Lasley in the holding role based on this seasons form, hence why he's been benched until a vacancy arose in central defence. Again, I'd have to question McGhee's transfer policy on this, I could see his initial thinking in that Hughes and Boab were a ready made combo for the middle, but for me only in a 4-4-2 and only when they're both on form, which hasny happened. Yes he can offer us cover at the back, and he's actually been OK, however in terms of bang for the buck/minutes on the park for the dosh invested, he's been a huge waste of funds (see also O'Brien this season).
