Problematic (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

thorny

tricky

'problematic' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for thorny that I've seen before include "Problematic; spiny" , "Difficult; prickly" , "Bristling with perplexities" , "Covered in spikes" , "Trying" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Guardian, The Independent and The Mirror.
