    My first thought after the game was that he had men get in behind him repeatedly; can't complain about his athleticism and pace however.

    Last night will have done his confidence the world of good. Definitely an option we could utilise domestically as well.

    We simply need to get this man and others minutes in their legs regardless… as seen by the amount of injuries we get he’s going to be needed one time or another. Hopefully when he’s needed he’s ready.

    If he isnt going to get minutes then loan him to an spl side, similar to what we done with ajer.

    Hes ready for games.

    Good news is he can easily step in now if we have a defensive injury crisis aswel. Hes going to be a big player in the future.

    I'd be keeping him as cover for Juranovic at the moment and not hurrying Ralston back. I think we have been rushing players back after injury too often, due to lack of options, and aggravating things. He looks like he could do a job against most teams in the league at RB just now, so at least we do have an option there.

    Thought he was outstanding last night. We should loan him to an spl side if we’re not gonna play him. Can definitely see him being another Ajer type success.

    Took him 20 mins to settle in but found his feet quickly. Would like to see him at centre back, absolute tank plus he’s * quick when he gets into stride.

    This was the one thing that worried me about him. His positioning wasn't great but that may come.

    For his 1st competitive start of the season I thought he was very good. Brave, fast and OK enough on the ball.

    I think it's partly how we play and I'm not sure Abada was giving him much help either. At least his pace got him back to make a challenge most of the times they got in behind. I think he's going to be good.

    Woah, let’s calm it down.

    Has a long, long way to go to get anywhere close to Ajer’s ability. He had a good game last night but he’s still extremely raw.

    He definitely done his claim no harm last night, but I think his future with us will be at CB.

    He's nowhere near Ajer technically, even when Ajer first broke through here..

    He was good last night though. Will be useful as he's strong, quick and good in the air. Even though he isn't silky, he tried to get forward well also..

    Right let me rephrase this.

    I think he has a lot of potential and, whilst not ready to be thrown right into the first team, he should be loaned out an SPL side so he can develop. Much in the same way as Christie and Ajer blossomed whilst on loan, I can see him following the same path as they both did and then eventually come back to us ready to challenge in the first team.

    I do not think he is ready for the first team yet.
    I do not think he has the same footballing attributes as Ajer.

    I was merely stating I can see him benefiting from the model we applied with Christie and Ajer where we end up with an accomplished first team player.

    He only signed his first professional contract in 2018. Prior to that, he was presumably still playing Sunday League or football as a part time thing.

    In today's game that's very late. It may explain why he looks so raw and rough round the ages. I like him though, he's got a great mentality and seems like a guy who has a mature head on his shoulders.

    Would be good if we loaned him to another spfl side so he gets game time but also experience of playing in our league.
