    Boys not as good as Matthews, should never have started.

    Couldn't handle Craig Beattie at all

    I'm not picky.
    Think he played ok to be honest. Wasn't fantastic but is obviously still adjusting to the Scottish game and has played only a handful of games for us.

    Hope he can get a few more games before the end of the season so he can get more game time.

    I wish we could just get players that can slot right in at the back.

    my opinion need another 2 centre halfs AGAIN this summer

    still not sure about this guy.

    Didn't impress me yesterday, thought he looked very lightweight and positional sense didn't impress me either, seemed to get on the wrong side of his attacker time and time again, looks decent going forward, Matthews should be well ahead of this guy.

    Only one game, I'm not going to judge the guy on this at all, he was only 1 of about 8 who didn't turn up.

    Seems to be a bit like Cha du Ri, very good at getting into attacking positions but gets caught out a little and not a great final ball. Way too early to judge though, give him plenty of game time til the end of the season to see what he's all about.

    He wasn't that impressive defensively. But for me both our fullbacks were badly exposed by our centre backs thinking they were * Lionel Messi. For the Hearts goal, Mulgrew and Lustig had to drift in to cover the cb's. It was an appalling defensive display yesterday, mainly by our cb's.

    Think Lustig may be back up for his time here though.

    Thought he played well yesterday, possibly our best player although hardly an achievement.

    the one with driver i thought he got studded on his shin and should have been a foul can't remember the other times

    i thought he was very good, a composed footballer, good competition for mathews next season and with his height maybe could step in as a central defender at times

    The Driver one looked it at first but turned out to be a sore one for him. There was a couple in their half where a bit more aggression would have won him the ball but looked like he wasn't giving 100% in them.

    Agree he looks a composed player though, and definitely will give Matthews competition, which is only going to be a good thing :50:

    He is a good backup player, dont get fooled because he is in the swedish national side. RB is swedens worst position, we dont even have backup players in that position at proffesional level. Lustig is a OK player and a great man (spoke with him outside CP before the LC final). But matthews would take his spot in the national team if he was Swedish.

    I have to be honest I wasn't impressed with him at all. I thought he was slow? Maybe fitness or something...

    not a terrible performance but not great either. But match fitness can't be there. So I'm going with decent.

    early on, I've been saying he looks like a right-sided Charlie Mulgrew. Not the fastest fullback, but a good crosser of the ball and maybe has a bit of skill.
