    Very harsh on the lad... first game for a while and he grew into the game fine.

    He definitely has some strong attributes, but gives it away far too easily.

    It must be tough to come in from the cold, not even making squads, and be expected to be at your best.

    To be fair to him, he never hides, and did seem to grow in to the game.

    From 60 minutes in he was * brilliant.

    Let’s no mention the first hour.

    Decent second half and he's still improving. It would be insane to write him off at the moment.

    A mixture of liability and brilliance lol, personally i don't think he's good enough to play for us.

    Was very good second half, I thought. He has a lot of good qualities. I'm not writing him off just yet.

    He was brilliant the last 30 minutes, defending isnt his strong point though.

    Completely agree.

    I thought he was good when we started dominating going forward.

    I don't rate him and don't think he'll cut it here. The drop off in standard from Taylor to him is staggering.

    If write him off and go again in the market for another left back.

    Needs sold and replaced IMO. Need to be ruthless if we want to develop

    We need quality. Not teach him to play football. Thats what loans are for.

    Which would cost us big time in Europe when we are under pressure from quality opposition.

    Not easy coming in out the cold having not even been on the bench in a month or so. Think we have to cut him a bit of slack even if that first half was really poor.

    Last half hour he was excellent and showed what he’s capable of.

    The gap between our first and second left back is an issue however, more glaring than any other position on the park.

    If we want to develop we also need to develop our own players.

    Needs cut some slack. Not played for how many games and probably didn't expect to play tonight.

    Hope it gave him a bit of confidence. Like Starfelt last season there is a player in there.

    Celtic fans are hilarious, been crying out for young South American’s for years, apparently have zero time about getting them acclimatised and up to speed for Scotland and a much bigger team.

    Has spent talent going forward but doesn't ever look capable of defending. Clearly can't defend whatsoever..

    Too rash in his play and with his touch..

    We need a left back in for me this summer..

    Giakoumakis and Maeda were both written off by some last season. Bernabei might end up not being good enough, but time will tell. Ange has already said he's played more this season than he initially expected him to, so he was clearly brought in with the mindset of developing him.

    Poor first half, slightly better second.

    To me, it's clear as day that he needs consistent game time and not fleeting appearances. This is generally backed up with him coming good later in games he does start - there's a good player there.

    Unfortunately, he's one of the few players who we have in the squad who doesn't slot in seamlessly when he does come in from the cold.

    I'm torn about whether I'd sell him or not a (leaning towards no, but still on the fence).

    Shocking first half but good second half. Seemed much more comfortable once the subs were made which makes me think he'd be fine, or at least better defensively, with a settled midfield in front of him.

    Another assist too.
