    Good to see that. Players who have the desire to play for us is what we need.

    I don't know how to feel about this one.

    He's not the guaranteed starter I was hoping for, but I really like having Scottish players around the squad. If he's someone we can develop to the point where he plays a similar role to the likes of McGregor or Armstrong in the squad, I'll be satisfied.

    His main qualities seem to be his pace and tendency to bring the ball out of defence - but I've no idea what he's like as an actual defender. He could be another Efe.

    Still, I like having Scottish players around the squad, and if he's someone who we can develop then I'm all for it. The argument of Liam Lindsay has been thrown around a lot in recent weeks, and it's a good point, but from what I can tell Lindsay has played quite a lot more than Hendry has.

    With Ajer really coming onto a game, Compper and Hendry only just in the door, you'd have to assume we'll be losing one of Boyata or Simunovic in the Summer, as well as Sviatchenko.

    This should mean the end of Bitton and Lustig at centre back. :57:

    Bitton has probably been our best CB this season. Either him or Boyata.

    Hendry deserves our backing now that he’s signed, quietly optimistic that he could turn out to be a handy player to have in the squad.

    Don’t understand the people comparing him to Liam Lindsay if I’m honest. The same sceptics would have been out in force if we’d signed a centre half from thistle just like they are now we’ve taken one from Dundee.

    Ah it's fair enough if people have watched him at Dundee and not been impressed. Up to him to prove himself now.

    Wonder which Glasgow team he supported as a kid. It doesn't matter which one it was, but I'm just curious.

    Fair enough. Thought it might have been Thistle, considering he started his career there.

    A few people were saying he's a Celtic fan but I'd have thought he'd have mentioned that in his interviews.

    Totally agree that everyone is entitled to their own by opinion on it but I just feel that some would find something to complain about no matter who we signed.

    Have only ever watched him against us in the past but if Brendan thinks there’s a player in there I’m happy to trust his judgement.
