    Actually enjoyed that, Moussa and Eddie combined well and scored two belters. Big Marvin didn't look like a coo

    Was it Calvin Miller that played left of the 3 in the second half?

    Brilliant watching football in that kinda weather. French Eddy and Mouss could be the difference in qualifying for the groups. Plenty of promise in the second half.

    Hopefully Rodgers can coach the likes of Welsh,Johnston and Henderson into first team regulars. Christie and Allan done well. Think Miller and Ralston will struggle to progress with us.

    All in all though a very worthwile exercise

    Agree with pretty much all of that, Miler is never a full back. Think Ralston is okay just really slow

    Very good 1st half, and a couple of good performances in the second half, but other than Mikey I don't think anyone in the second half really came anywhere near playing themselves into contention. The defence in particular looked poor.

    Enjoyed that today, was good to be back in Paradise against a good side (albeit in a friendly) we made look ordinary.

    Christie crushed a disabled guy when he was barged over the barrier by their big massive centre half. Guy ended up having to get carted out by the Paramedics. Looked a sore yin.

    A supporter of another Scottish team on Twitter told me when French Ed signed that he didn't really improve our team and that we was wasting our record fee on a bench warmer. Jury's still out IMO.

    I like Ajer. The bhoy is going to be really something when he puts it all together. He has so much pace and can be a realistic goal threat to the opposition. To be honest that second team acquitted themselves very well all things considered. They're not a group that are accustomed to playing together regularly so fair play to them. They seemed to start a bit clumsily and got sleeker and smoother as the game wore on. SL weren't a bad team either and did attempt to give us a game. Yeah I'm loving the positivity and cameraderie around the team and that pitch is fantastic.

    He looked better at centre half..

    Think he was played right back before?

    Some impressive interceptions when utter was slightly backs to the wall and he coped well..

    I think it was the Moose's goal that pleased me most today even over the other class finishes.......he looked so hungry to win that ball from the defender there.....really good to see!!

    He was absolutely immense in my opinion..

    Defending in our box. Closing down the defender for his goal. Pressuring the defender hard on the byline to force a corner. His touch. His link up play. Unlucky to no score at least 3, maybe 4..

    Looked massively up for it for a friendly in 45 minute's..

    Aye he played RB in Austria.

    He looks like he’s took a stretch and put some weight on since the UYL. He was good but he was a * midget then and playing between possibly the two worst youth products I’ve ive seen for us at that level.

    Always better for youngsters to get thrown in with experience like a Compper and you see even though we were under pressure that first 10/15 second half, that he didn't sink..

    Playing beside Deas and the biggest donkey ever to grace the hoops in Wallace Duffy....is never gonna end well..

    Same for Hazard in goal. Cool leader in front and he did well. Johnston linking up with captain Sinclair and so on..

    I’m at the point where I wouldn’t be signing anyone unless they were absolutely going to be a starter on top form.

    We’ve got some talent of our own I’d rather see than buying squad players.
