    Other than the penalty, he was really poor. Not sure he deserves to stay at LB never mind RB at present. Looking like a weak link. Missing Taylor.

    Cant have people writing Croatia’s first choice right back off based off of his performances at LEFT back. The guy deserves a run of game’s at right back regardless of how good Ralston has been.

    We're never missing Taylor.

    Judging a footballer on how they play football is fairly traditional.

    He has played once at RB for us too. Whilst only one appearance (Ross County at home) it was awful.

    I'm sure he is better than that but at present think getting a better LB is more important than whether he plays RB given we have a consistently good player there already.

    So, Croatias right back can't get into our RB position while our RB can't get into Scotland's RB position.

    Got it.

    Missing taylor, * me ive heard it all.

    He is a right footed right back, playing for a top country, yes he was poor tonight but he isnt a left back.

    He deserves to play in his natural position.

    Think our issue tonight was he was Celtic LB. Other than the (impressive) penalty why is it better to play him there than Montgomery or Scales.

    He's also had Celtics worst performance at RB this season.

    It’s partially down to that but I think he maybe had a wee bit of over confidence - if that’s even possible.

    Scoring that absolute beauty of a pen gave him a bit of a rush of blood because the time he did make a brutal pass across his box straight to that young German lad which should have ended up worse, when we won the baw back next minute he’s playing at left wing.

    Passing was a bit sloppy tbh, but that penalty was tremendous. :ynwacelti

    That's why his passing is ropey sometimes there. It's clear he isn't a completely comfortable left back....although he's been more than competent..

    Anyone can see his talent and what he brings to the side. Ability to beat people with ease or his recovery pace across the backline, as well as his composure....most of the time..

    He's a right back chopping in though and that's why he'll sometimes * up those square hospital ball's..

    Not a LB.

    He is a quality player pigeon-holed, that’s the reality of it.

    In zero doubt LB is a priority come January.

    Poor too often. Has qualities in certain games but gets a free ride too often.

    You'd think he was the first player to play out of position. It's more normal than not now.

    Should definitely be getting replaced at LB.

    Think that's harsh..

    Stick Tony on the left and see how he'd cope in this setup..

    Juranovic isn't long in the door and due to being more composed/versatile, plus Tony being good on the right...he's the one who's been filling in over there..

    We've still to see the very best of him. He's been Croatia's performing number 1 right back for a while now...and with good reason..

    He's done well playing out of position tho, he's got real quality. We need to sign a quality LB, so Ralston and Juranovic can share the RB berth.

    We really need to stop playing players out of position thought Ralston and juranovic were poor tonight and need to get him in his right position and bring in another left back if we want to progress in Europe .

    100% - we need a LB, at which stage I am under no illusions he will be RB
