He had around a 0.82 goal contribution (0.41 goal and 0.41 assist) per 90 minutes last season. For anyone that is pretty decent, at 18/19 that is very good. It basically works out at 9 goal contributions in just over 11 (90 minute) games. For comparison Ojo's has a 0.61 goal contribution per 90 minutes this season. Having watched Ojo numerous times, I haven't seen much from him in terms of all round play/link play, that suggests he is bringing a lot more than Middleton was. If anything he feels even more frustrating that Middleton.
I think the main difference for me between Middleton and Ojo is, Middleton is our player (and one of us). We don't have much of an upside to Ojo, if he manages to kick on and develop we are looking at a massive fee and wage. If more likely Ojo doesn't kick on, we have another frustrating inconsistent 6 months of developing another clubs player. Surely that 6 months would be better used on developing our on own player or getting someone of a higher level on loan.
Agreed but his next move has got to work for him - seesm to have stalled a bit - but as you say he is young enough to get it rightI'm a fan of Middleton and still think he can make it with us. While his level dropped a bit after an excellent start I still think there's a lot of potential there. He's still only 20!

This would be a good move for Robby McCrorie provided he does not end up sitting on the bench at Livingston, as he has played 20 league games for Queen of the South this season so far.Hearing that Robbie McCrorie has been recalled from QOTS and is being loaned to Livingston. Any truth in that?
Big move for Robby McCrorie there..confirmed as going to livi. Big half season and could position himself well to take over from Shagger in 2021/2022.
Glad he's done well at Queens and I hope we send more talent to Queens as they seem to have done well with Robby.
That’s the feeling that I got, he was advised to go to Holland turned it down and what happened at Hibs.I really think that Middleton made a mistake when choosing hibs over the move abroad. Would have really helped his development and i wonder if that may have slightly soured Gerrard's view of Middleton.
Robby McCrorie MOTM on his premier League debut.
Is Ross not fit yet as he's not playing?
As for Hastie, he's struggling to get game time. If he hadn't already played for two teams I'd suggest we loan him elsewhere.
Brilliant, Gerard has high hopes for thre kid. here is hoping he continues to progress.Mccrorie got mom on queens twitter account in a 3-0 defeat to motherwell. Heard he had a good 1 on 1 save at 0-0.

Stephen Kelly just scored for Ayr United v Inverness
Would like to think he has a chance of becoming a squad player next season.Stephen Kelly just scored for Ayr United v Inverness
Interesting to see as I’d imagine it may well be between him and Kai Kennedy nowWould like to think he has a chance of becoming a squad player next season.

You're miles off the mark mate.
He will come back, after a very successful loan at a lower level and push to become part of our 1st team squad.
He may even go out on loan at an SPL club next season, but he will continue to develop.
His career is taking the right path.
He's not at our level yet, but is a terrific prospect and is developing nicely.
It's I think Orange County. The latest link up. Must be better than s loan at Berwick or Stranraer.
Howler from McCrorie yesterday.
Assist tonight aswell I hear. BrilliantJamie Murphy puts burton 2-1 ahead
High hopes for him as a goalie thought he was still with BerwickHowler from McCrorie yesterday.
